I just left a quote/line from this great ANTHEM on a news channel, satire but he means it. I am a Canadian and never will stop being a "hippie" nor loving that music of that decade- hasn't come to "fruition" but we can't give up.

Despite what is commonly believed today, the song was not a commentary on anti-war demonstrations. Far from it. The event under consideration was the so-called Riot on the Sunset Strip, which involved about 1,000 kids who were demonstrating against the imposition of a curfew and the announcement that a popular club (Pandora’s Box, at 8118 Sunset Boulevard) was slated to be closed.

This was an anthem in the '60's and it fits today in '23! It's time we stopped! Everybody look around see what's going down!!

Being tone deaf I have the greatest admiration for your musical notation. Well done.

This song has become so much more relevant in this day and age. So scary, our generation knew way back then.

True words then and still true today. Maybe one day we will listen...

This song will be relevant for many more moons to come 😥✌

This song feel right for today

We use to play this song every night before lights out in the barracks in 1969. It kinda summed up our day.

This song is as relevant today as the day it was written.

Love Buffalo Springfield. Neil Young and Stephen Stills 2 really great artists. Expecting To Fly ✌️

Luv it every body needs to pay attention to what is going down

Beautiful song. ❤❤❤

I've been a fan of them all since 1966-or 1967, (hey, its been a while) and followed as they made the greatest music around - from Poco, to CSNY, and on and on. I often wear a Buffalo Springfield Tee at concerts. It never fails as an ice breaker - so many folks come on up with great smiles and memories. Try to do a rock and roll DNA family tree starting with Buffalo Springfield - like trying to get to the end of "pi". This whole retrospective album, all great songs.

That’s really interesting that everyone believes that this song is their song while they have so many better song. It might be because of the lyric which made this song more important.

stephen wrote some great stuff back then. totally American and totally 60's

I was eleven and loving this song. Loved it, still do.
