Neil Diamond "The American Popular Song"

First the orchestral crescendo, the hubris of writing a song called "The American Popular Song" that itself aspires to be just that, lyrics like "it grabs you, and it holds you, feel it control you?"... Listen, I don't know who this Neil Diamond is, but when I was first born I was completely unaware of anything outside of myself. And you know what happened? I got over it. This guy never seemed to get there.

And what's this Internet? No streaming of "The American Popular Song"? For God's sake, I'm only 8 months old and I'm already so far ahead of you.
