NEIL Young has fallen asleep [“Neil Young’s Harsh Words,” by Chris Lee, April 21]. He woke up briefly after Sept. 11, 2001. You’ll recall he wrote in the song “Let’s Roll”: “You’ve got to turn on evil, when it’s coming after you.” I guess he thought a war against a cult of mass murderers should be quick and painless and, well, clean. Maybe his new album should be called “Let’s Give Up.”
As a fan of Neil’s since way back in the Buffalo Springfield days, I’m not prepared to give up -- on the war or him. I’ll wait till after the next 9/11 and see what songs he comes up with then.
