Reseña
El sexto álbum de estudio de Neil Young lleva por título "Tonight's the Night" y fue lanzado al mercado el 20 de junio de 1975, contando con la producción de David Briggs y el propio Neil Young. El álbum se publicó dos años después de su exitoso "Harvest", en una etapa en la que su éxito se vio eclipsado por una profunda depresión padecida tras el fallecimiento de dos grandes amigos por sobredosis, el guitarrista de la banda Crazy Horse, Danny Whitten y su amigo del grupo Road, Bruce Berry.
El álbum fue grabado durante largas sesiones nocturnas a lo largo de 1973, pero su publicación se vio retrasada dos años. En el ambiente del álbum se nota la amargura y las altas dosis de alcohol, para traernos un trabajo duro y oscuro que nos trae meditaciones acerca de la fama y de la muerte, de la crueldad del éxito y del fracaso.
Grabado en los estudios SIR de Los Angeles, contiene temas como el que da título al disco, "Tonight's The Night", en el que Young cita a su amigo Berry. En otra de las canciones, "Come on Baby Let's Go Downtown", el cantautor canadiense incorpora las voces de Danny Whitten, en un tema grabado en directo en 1970.
Neil Young formó para esta ocasión una banda de acompañamiento llamada "The Santa Monica Flyers", con la base rítmica de Billy Talbot y Ralph Molina, de Crazy Horse.

- World On A StringVer letra 2:27
[X]letra de World On A String
You know I lose,
you know I win
You know I call for
the shape I'm in.
It's just a game you
see me play,
Only real in the way
That I feel
from day to day.
Although the answer
is not unknown,
I'm searchin', searchin',
and how I've grown.
It's not all right
to say goodbye,
And the world on a string
Doesn't mean a thing.
No, the world on a string
Doesn't mean a thing.
It's only real in the way
That I feel from day to day.
No, the world on a string
Doesn't mean a thing. - Borrowed TuneVer letra 3:26
[X]letra de Borrowed Tune
I'm climbin' this ladder,
My head in the clouds
I hope that it matters,
I'm havin' my doubts.
I'm watchin' the skaters
Fly by on the lake.
Ice frozen six feet deep,
How long does it take?
I look out on peaceful lands
With no war nearby,
An ocean of shakin' hands
That grab at the sky.
I'm singin' this borrowed tune
I took from the Rolling Stones,
Alone in this empty room
Too wasted to write my own.
I'm climbin' this ladder,
My heads in the clouds
I hope that it matters. - Come On Baby Let's Go Downtown 3:35
- Mellow My MindVer letra 3:07
[X]letra de Mellow My Mind
Baby mellow my mind,
Make me feel like a
schoolboy on good time,
Jugglin' nickels and dimes,
Satisfied with the
fish on the line.
I've been down the road
and I've come back
Lonesome whistle
on the railroad track
Ain't got nothing on those
feelings that I had.
Something so hard to find,
A situation that can
casualize your mind.
I've been down the road
and I've come back
Lonesome whistle
on the railroad track
Ain't got nothing on those
feelings that I had.
Baby mellow my mind,
Make me feel like a
schoolboy on good time,
Jugglin' nickels and dimes,
Satisfied with the
fish on the line. - Roll Another Number (For The Road)Ver letra 3:02
[X]letra de Roll Another Number (For The Road)
It's too dark
to put the keys
in my ignition,
And the mornin' sun is yet
to climb my hood ornament.
But before too long I might
see those flashing red lights
Look out, mama,
'cause I'm comin' home tonight.
Think I'll
roll another number
for the road,
I feel able to get under any load.
Though my feet
aren't on the ground,
I been standin' on the sound
Of some open-hearted people
goin' down.
I'm not goin' back
to Woodstock for a while,
Though I long to hear
that lonesome hippie smile.
I'm a million miles away
from that helicopter day
No, I don't believe
I'll be goin' back that way.
Think I'll
roll another number
for the road,
I feel able to get under any load.
Though my feet
aren't on the ground,
I been standin' on the sound
Of some open-hearted people
goin' down. - AlbuquerqueVer letra 4:02
[X]letra de Albuquerque
Well, they say
that Santa Fe
Is less than ninety miles away,
And I got time to roll a number
and rent a car.
Oh, Albuquerque.
I've been flyin'
down the road,
And I've been starvin' to be alone,
And independent from the scene
that I've known.
Albuquerque.
So I'll stop when I can,
Find some fried eggs
and country ham.
I'll find somewhere where
they don't care who I am.
Oh, Albuquerque,
Albuquerque. - New MamaVer letra 2:11
[X]letra de New Mama
New mama's got a sun in her eyes
No clouds are in my changing skies
Each morning when I wake up to rise
I'm livin' in a dreamland.
Changing times,
ancient reasons,
that turn to lies
Throw them all away
Head in hand,
gift of wonders to understand
And open all the way.
New mama's got a sun in her eyes
No clouds are in my changing skies
Each morning when I wake up to rise
I'm livin' in a dreamland. - Lookout JoeVer letra 3:57
[X]letra de Lookout Joe
A hip drag queen and
a side-walkin' street wheeler,
Comin' down the avenue.
They're all your friends,
you'll come to love 'em
There's a load of 'em
waitin' for you.
Lookout Joe, you're comin' home.
Old times were good times,
Old times were good times.
Remember Millie
from down in Philly?
She took my brain
and forgot my name.
The woman you were with
was about the same
She took your money and left town.
Lookout Joe, you're comin' home.
Old times were good times,
Old times were good times.
Glory Hallelujah!
Will I lay my burden down?
Singin' on the streets around:
Look at that crazy clown.
Remember Bill from up on the hill?
A Cadillac put a hole in his arm.
But old Bill, he's up there still,
Havin' a ball
rollin' to the bottom.
Lookout Joe, you're comin' home.
Old times were good times,
Old times were good times. - Tired EyesVer letra 4:38
[X]letra de Tired Eyes
Well he shot four men
in a cocaine deal
And he left them
lyin' in an open field
Full of old cars
with bullet holes
in the mirrors.
He tried to do his best
but he could not.
Please take my advice,
please take my advice
Please take my advice.
Open up the tired eyes,
Open up the tired eyes.
Well, it wasn't
supposed to go
down that way.
But they burned his brother,
you know,
And they left him lying
in the driveway.
They let him down with nothin'.
He tried to do his best
but he could not.
Please take my advice,
please take my advice
Please take my advice.
Open up the tired eyes,
Open up the tired eyes.
Well tell me more,
tell me more,
tell me more
I mean was he a heavy doper
or was he just a loser?
He was a friend of yours.
What do you mean,
he had bullet holes
in his mirrors?
He tried to do his best
but he could not.
Please take my advice,
please take my advice
Please take my advice.
Open up the tired eyes,
Open up the tired eyes.
Please take my advice,
please take my advice
Please take my advice.
Open up the tired eyes,
Open up the tired eyes. - Tonight's The Night - Part II 4:52
