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. Then thepea then asked...
"What State Leader, Dictator, General, Politician, Pope, Savior, Communist, Fascist, Sindonistis, Hoa Chi Minh, Pol Pot, Richard Nixon, Joseph Stalin, Hugo Chavez, Adolph Hitler, Mussolini.....person has ever said that MUSIC!!! CAN CHANGE THE WORLD? "
And now, Mr Neil Young is Down in the Dumps because, he has lost all Hope that it can... ???

That's what all his rehab sessions were about.
Oh, I beg to differ. A song can truly help change the world. For example: tell me the world hasn't become a better place since that wonderful Coke commercial with all the people singing from the mountainside..."I'd like to teach the world to sing / in perfect harmony / I'd like to blah blah blah blah blah..."
Even Osama likes that song! I met the songwriter once - Roger Cook - look it up, I dare ya.
Ahh, Pea... Please slow down with some of those words. I went to school with most of the people you mentioned. However, not being a walking "Funk & Wagnalls", I had to spend 93 minutes looking up definitions!
