It's a fair bet when a folk-rocker's age is eponymous with the decade, people don't care about what he thinks anymore (from Breitbart.com):
Canadian folk rock legend Neil Young said he has lost all hope that music can change the world, as he presented a documentary about his 2006 anti-war concert tour at the Berlin film festival on Friday.
"I know that the time when music could change the world is past. I really doubt that a single song can make a difference. It is a reality," Young told reporters.
"I don't think the tour had any impact on voters."
Shed a quiet tear.
Bonus fun-fact: The breaking story above, originating from Agence France-Press, also contains the following, which could only come from the left-wing French media:
But the silver-haired frontman of the sixties supergroup Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young nonetheless dealt US President George W. Bush a stinging, back-handed insult (emphasis added) and said his own "naive" urge to make people think remains intact.
"What is wrong with George Bush? That would take a really long time. Let's talk about what is right with him, it is a much shorter answer.
Oooh! You know the president must still be smarting from that one.
