Neil Young set list According to Set List FM, here's what Young performed at Forest Hills Stadium at the concert The Post attended in May 2024: 01.) 'Cortez the Killer' 02.) 'Cinnamon Girl' 03.) 'Scattered (Let's Think About Livin')' 04.) 'Like a Hurricane' 05.) 'Don't Cry No Tears' 06.) 'Vampire Blues' 07.) 'The Losing End (When You're On)' 08.) 'Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere' 09.) 'Powderfinger' 10.) 'Love and Only Love' 11.) 'Comes a Time' 12.) 'Heart of Gold' 13.) 'Human Highway' 14.) 'Hey Hey, My My (Into the Black)' Encore 15.) 'Sedan Delivery' 16.) 'Rockin' in the Free World' Neil Young new music On June 13, Young and the Chrome Hearts dropped 'Talkin to the Trees.' The record, The Godfather of Grunge's 48th (!), clocks in just shy of 38 minutes and finds the versatile Canadian virtuoso returning to his folksy-country roots. Things get underway with the deceptively simple yet exceedingly heartfelt 'Family Life.' From there, the 79-year-old turns on the aux and busts out the garage rock 'Dark Mirage,' so sweet it'll make you cry 'First Fire of Winter' and plodding, harmonica-heavy 'Silver Eagle.' Highlights on the back half include the melty, drowned-out bass-y 'big change' which Young warbles in a flat yet haunting affect, syrupy title track 'Talkin' To The Trees' and bluesy barroom crowd pleaser 'Movin Ahead.' Young and the Chrome Hearts close with the dreamy 'Thankful.' The vulnerable tune is almost a reimagining of the classic 'Harvest Moon' with its similar chord progressions but is honestly so beautiful it stands on its own. To hear for yourself, you can find 'Talkin to the Trees' here. Neil Young and the Chrome Hearts members Curious who will be doing what onstage? Wonder no longer.

Neil Young Plays Rare Full-Band ‘Ambulance Blues' With The Chrome Hearts
Neil Young treated fans in Groningen, Netherlands, to a once-in-a-generation moment during his Love Earth Tour on July 1, performing a full-band version of 'Ambulance Blues' for only the third time in his six-decade career. The performance took place at Drafbaan Stadspark, where Young was joined by his current touring outfit, the Chrome Hearts, featuring guitarist Micah Nelson (aka Particle Kid), bassist Corey McCormick, drummer Anthony Logerfo, and longtime collaborator Spooner Oldham on organ. More from Billboard Debbie Harry on Image Expectations in Music: 'I Wanted to Work' Wallows Recall Morrissey Walking Out of Their Show: 'That's the Perfect Morrissey Story' Bob Vylan Axed From Radar, Kave Fest After Glastonbury Backlash 'I haven't played this in like 100 years,' Young told the crowd as he stepped into the spotlight. What followed was an eight-minute rendition of the On the Beach deep cut, a song revered by fans for its raw lyrics reflecting cultural malaise and change: 'You're all just pissin' in the wind.' Originally released as the closing track of Young's 1974 album On the Beach — part of his so-called 'Ditch Trilogy' alongside Time Fades Away and Tonight's the Night — 'Ambulance Blues' has almost exclusively appeared in stripped-back solo acoustic performances. Its full-band treatment is exceptionally rare, previously documented only at the 1998 Bridge School Benefit with R.E.M. and during a private 2016 show in Paris with Promise of the Real. The Groningen show was the sixth date of Young's European run, which has seen him lean heavily on classics. The setlist included fan favorites like 'Cinnamon Girl,' 'Harvest Moon,' 'Like a Hurricane,' 'Old Man,' and a poignant solo acoustic 'The Needle and the Damage Done.' In recent performances, Young has revived several deep cuts. The rock legend also revisited one of the most personal songs in his extensive catalog during a special benefit concert on May 23, delivering the first live performance of 'My Boy' in more than four decadesWhile the May set featured classics like 'Heart of Gold,' 'Comes a Time' and 'Sugar Mountain,' it was the mid-show performance of 'My Boy' that drew audible emotion from the crowd. Originally released on 1985's Old Ways, the banjo-led ballad is a tribute to Young's eldest son, Zeke. The song had not been performed live since the 1983 Solo Trans tour. Young's European leg continues July 3 with a stop at Berlin's Waldbühne, followed by two additional European shows before heading back to North America for a 15-date run stretching through Sept. 15.

Watch Neil Young and the Chrome Hearts Play a Majestic, 14-Minute ‘Cortez the Killer'
Neil Young and the Chrome Hearts are three shows into their Love Earth world tour, and they've already settled into a solid setlist that mixes classics ('Cinnamon Girl,' 'Like a Hurricane,' 'The Needle and the Damage Done') with oddball deep cuts ('Sun Green,' 'Looking Forward,' 'Name of Love'), and doesn't vary much from night to night. But every show so far has opened with a different solo acoustic song — 'Sugar Mountain' in Sweden, 'Heart of Gold' in Norway, 'Comes a Time' in Denmark' — and wrapped up with a unique encore. Sweden closed out with 'Rockin' in the Free World,' Norway got 'Cortez the Killer,' and Denmark saw a double shot of 'Down by the River' and 'Rockin' in the Free World.' More from Rolling Stone Neil Young and the Chrome Hearts Dig Deep at 'Love Earth' Tour Kickoff in Sweden Neil Young Is Still Rolling Through Time on the Lovably Messy 'Talkin to the Trees' Neil Young Invites Donald Trump to Summer Tour After Springsteen Spat A fan perched near the stage captured 'Cortez the Killer' in Norway, and it is simply majestic. Young doesn't sing a note for nearly five minutes as the intro of the song slowly swells. The performance stretches out for a stunning 14 minutes. That's a good three minutes longer than the renditions that opened up every show of Young's 2024 tour with Crazy Horse. (The record, however, was set at a Rotterdam show back in 2001 when the song went on for 22 minutes.) In Norway, Young included the lost verse of 'Cortez the Killer' that nobody heard until last year. The verse had been rumored for decades, but wasn't confirmed until Young did a Zoom with paid members of the Neil Young Archives, and said he recently stumbled upon his original lyrics. They were unveiled to the public on the opening night of the Crazy Horse tour in April 2024. 'I floated on the water,' Young sang. 'I ate that ocean wave/Two weeks after the slaughter/I was living in a cave/They came too late to get me/But there's no one here to set me free/From this rocky grave/To that snowed-out ocean wave.' 'Down by the River' in Denmark topped out at a relatively brief nine minutes, as opposed to the 24-minute one from Dresden, Germany, in 2014, and was also filmed by a fan. Check out the footage right here along with 'Rockin' in the Free World.' After the show in Sweden, Young wrote up a travel log on his website. 'We are now on the highway to Bergen,' he wrote, 'a winding beauty, passing giant rock formations and verdant trees and growth, incredible waterways with rapids opening onto large lakes. Old buildings in wonderful condition on the banks. Snow capped mountain peaks above. Tunnels up to 26 kilometers in length, carved through rock. Natural rock for 26 kilometers! I am in awe of the beautify and power of these projects. These Norwegians are an awesome building people.' The tour continues June 26 at Malahide Castle in Dublin, Ireland. And on June 28, it hits the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury in England. A North American leg begins Aug. 8 at PNC Music Pavilion Charlotte, North Carolina. It wraps up September at Farm Aid in Minneapolis Minnesota. At some point, Young will likely play at least one song from his brand new album, Talkin' to the Trees. But at this point, he hasn't done anything written since 2003. Best of Rolling Stone Sly and the Family Stone: 20 Essential Songs The 50 Greatest Eminem Songs All 274 of Taylor Swift's Songs, Ranked

Neil Young Plays Fan-Favorite Song Live for the First Time in 25 Years: Watch!
Neil Young Plays Fan-Favorite Song Live for the First Time in 25 Years: Watch! originally appeared on Parade. The Godfather of Grunge is back, and he brought some old favorite tracks with him! Neil Young kicked off his Love Earth Tour in Rattvik, Sweden on Wednesday, June 18, 2025, backed by his new band The Chrome Hearts. The legendary singer-songwriter played many of his famous classics, like "Harvest Moon" and "Old Man," but fans were surprised to see some tunes on the setlist that hadn't been played in decades. Crazy Horse hit "Sun Green" made it onto the lineup for the first time since 2004, while Young played the Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young song "Looking Forward" for the first time since 2000, according to Ultimate Classic Rock — a whopping 25 years ago! Watch the powerful performance below: "Looking forward all that I can see/Is good things happening to you and to me/I'm not waiting for times to change/I'm goin' to live like a free roamin' soul/On the highway of our love," sings the crooner. The often-controversial Canadian-American musician plans to rock out on the European leg of the tour until coming to North America for the second leg beginning Aug. 8, 2025. Young had multiple brief stints teaming up with David Crosby, Stephen Stills, and Graham Nash to release music under the name Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young, releasing albums as a foursome in 1970, 1988, and 1999. Their final album included the hit "Looking Forward," which Young wrote. Young dug up another old hit recently, reaching even further back in his musical portfolio for a benefit show at Lakefield College in Ontario, Canada. The lyricist played "My Boy," a song from his 1985 album, Old Ways that hadn't been performed since 1983, according to Stereogum. Neil Young Plays Fan-Favorite Song Live for the First Time in 25 Years: Watch! first appeared on Parade on Jun 19, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jun 19, 2025, where it first appeared.

Neil Young Performs Eighties Deep Cut ‘My Boy' for First Time in 42 Years
Neil Young played his first full show of the year Friday night at a special benefit for Ontario's Lakefield College School on the campus grounds. It was a frigid, rainy night, and tickets cost upwards of $1,500, with all the money going towards the restoration of a 116-year-old cottage near the school. Unlike his upcoming Love Earth Tour with the Chromes Hearts, this was a solo, acoustic show. The 18-song set was heavy on standards like 'Comes a Time,' 'Sugar Mountain,' 'Heart of Gold,' 'Helpless,' 'I Am a Child' and 'After the Gold Rush.' But there were a few surprises, like 'Love/Art Blues,' which he hadn't played in public since 2008. He also broke out the 1988 CSNY super deep cut 'Name of Love' for the first time since 2014. More from Rolling Stone Neil Young Stands With Taylor Swift, Bruce Springsteen in Trump's Musician War: 'You Work for Us' Farm Aid to Celebrate 40th Anniversary in Minneapolis Neil Young Takes Direct Aim at Tesla on New Single 'Let's Roll Again' The most notable moment took place midway through the night when he strapped on a banjo and played the Old Ways obscurity 'My Boy' for the first time since the 1983 Solo Trans tour. It's a sweet, loving ode to Zeke Young, his eldest song. 'Why are you growin' up so fast/My boy?,' he sings. 'Oh, you'd better take your time/Why are you growin' up so fast/My son?' Hours before the concert, Young posted a vintage photo of himself with Zeke as a toddler alongside his late father, sportswriter Scott Young. 'Practicing for Lakefield, I was playing 'My Boy,' thinking about my own dad,' he wrote. 'I knew he must have heard this song. My dad was a great guy and Zeke is a wonderful son. I think 'My Boy' is my favorite recording of all the ones I have done. I love Ben Keith and Spooner Oldham's playing, as well as the others on it. They are soulful musicians. I have been so lucky!' The show ended with 'Old Man,' but a printed set list on the stage revealed that he originally planned on coming back out for solo electric renditions of 'Throw Your Hatred Down' and 'Rockin' in the Free World.' It's unclear why he cut the last two numbers, but the miserable weather likely played a role. (Young largely refuses to play indoor gigs due to Covid concerns. The sole indoor date of his upcoming Love Earth Tour is July 13 at the Adidas Arena in Paris.) The Love Earth Tour kicks off June 18 in Rättvik, Sweden. The American leg begins Aug. 8 in Charlotte, North Carolina. Young hasn't revealed exactly what he'll be playing on the tour, but expect several selections from his upcoming album, Talkin' to the Trees.
