Thanks for the links Smiley, those were great.
I totally dig Neil, such a great entertainer. I've never had the chance to see him but from the concert footage I've seen he really knows how to hold an audience. My wife and I always sing September Morn to each other as our little joke, really putting an emphasis on the September Morn part.
Other favorites are Love On The Rocks, Brother Love's Travelling Salvation Show, I Am I Said and Girl, You'll Be A Woman Soon.
Edit: I need to pick up his latest album. After hearing Rick Rubin's production work on Johnny Cash, I'm assuming his work with Neil is pretty amazing.

I get a lot of weird looks from people when they browse through my music collection because I often have artists you wouldn't find together right next to each other. I've always like Neil Diamond and have quite a few of his cds (and a few on vinyl too). I've never had the opportunity to see him live though.
My favorites from him are Forever in Blue Jeans, Song Sung Blue, America, Sweet Caroline.

Those were great! I Love Will Ferrell.
Neil Diamond reminds me of my father. When I was a kid my family took a trip to Kentucky. We listened to his greatest hits Cd all the way. I LOVE Sweet Caroline!
Edit: LOL! I said CD!!! LMAO! It was an 8 track... Wow. that really says a lot, doesn't it?

Ooooh! I have been a Neil Diamond fan since 1969! I loved him from the first song I ever heard. DH and I saw one of his concerts lonnng ago at the Cow Palace in San Francisco.
Although I have many, many favourites, the one that tops them all is "I'm Alive", which hit my heart after surviving four life-threatening surgeries. It is not one of his best known hits, so I will put the lyrics below. I think you will see what I mean.
I'm Alive
Take a walk,
You can hardly breathe the air
Look around,
It's a hard life everywhere
People talk,
But they never really care
On the street
There's a feeling of despair
But everyday
There's a brand new baby born
And everyday
There's the sun to keep you warm
And it's all right
Yeah, it's all right
I'm alive
And I don't care much for words of doom
If it's love you need,
Well I've got the room
It's a simple thing
That came to me when I found you
I'm alive
I'm alive
Every night
On the streets of Hollywood
Pretty girls
Want to give you something good
Love for sale,
It's a lonely town at night
Therapy
For a heart misunderstood
But look around,
There's a a flower on every street
Look around,
And, it's growing at your feet
And everyday you can hear me say
That I'm alive
I wanna take all that life has got to give
All I need is someone to share it with
I've got love
And love is all I really need to live
I'm alive
I'm alive
And everyday
There's a brand new baby born
And everyway
There's enough to keep you warm
And it's okay
And I'm glad to say
That I'm alive
And I don't care much for words of doom
If it's love you got ,well I've got the room
It's a simple thing
That came to me when I found you
I'm alive
I'm alive
I wanna take all that life has got to give
All I need is someone to share it with
I've got love
And love is all I really need to live
I'm alive
I'm alive
And I don't care much for words of doom
If it's love you need,
Well I've got the room
It's a simple thing that came to me
And thank God I'm alive
I can take all that life has got to give
If I got someone to share it with
I got love and love is all you really need
I'm alive
