Cracklin' Rosie, Sweet Caroline, Forever In Blue Jeans, Holly Holy, Cherry Cherry, Song Sung Blue, Morningside, Solitary Man,. Just about any song from his live album "Hot August Night": would be a good listen. He has a lot of others.

Love on the rocks

Jay said he could listen to Neil all day long. I agree! My Mom loves Neil and when I was a little girl, my Mom would blast Neil Diamond on Saturday mornings while cleaning the house. I loved waking up to his voice. It’s because of her that I know his music. Thanks Mom!!

Wife here..My Mother Loved Loved Loved Neil Diamond..As do I..Wow..This takes me right back to her..Thank You for this Beautiful memory..

Neil Diamond has sold more than 100 million records worldwide. Diamond was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1984 and into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2011, and he received the Sammy Cahn Lifetime Achievement Award in 2000. In 2011, he was an honoree at the Kennedy Center Honors, and he received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2018.

"Cracklin' Rosie," "Sweet Caroline," "Solitary Man," "Cherry, Cherry," "Song Sung Blue," "Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show," "Holly Holy," "Play Me" ... and that's just from the "Hot August Night" album. :)

Oh man! Neil Diamond is so great. I love that September \ \ \ MORN So sweet

I like this one. Then again I like most of his songs.

Grew up listening to his music constantly playing in the house and on the road... Please listen to "Love On The Rocks" this song brings me to tears every time. 🥺🥰 His cover of "Both Sides Now" is great too. So many hits to choose from!! Keep smiling!! 😍

"Love On The Rocks" is such a sad song, but my God, it's so beautiful. I love that song so much. My late mother and I never agreed much on types of music and artists, but we both agreed on Neil Diamond. We both love(d) his music and even went to see The Jazz Singer together when it came out. Great memories with my mom!

If there is time in your life for only one Neil Diamond song, make it Solitary Man. You won't regret it.

I heard Neil tell a story of taking his grandkids to see Shrek. One of the songs in that movie was I'm a Believer. His grandkids didn't believe him when he said he wrote that song.

The song I play every September 1, in the morning. Love Neil.

Nice. Next Neil stop: Forever In Blue Jeans, Love on the Rocks, Hello Again, America, Longfellow Serenade. You'll love them all.

At his concerts…everyone falls in love with this handsome guy!🔥❤️💎

If you haven't already, you need to watch the movie, The Jazz Singer starring Neil Diamond. I think you would love the songs, his acting is wonderful and the story is heartfelt. I believe Laurence Olivier plays his dad.

Have been to many Neil Diamond concerts. You never sit,you sing along…you know every word,you hands sting from applauding…he encourages to sing along. He is wonderful. Three hours of uninterrupted Heaven!🔥❤️💎

Sweet Caroline is one of the best audience participation songs!

If you like this one then you are going to love “Play me”

Yes, he was a later version of Sinatra or maybe Tony Bennett, RIP. I get your vibe on that ballroom with everyone dressed fancy and Neil on stage sitting at a Baby Grand entertaining a huge formal dinner party!!

You guys have been missing one of the greatest ever, deep wormhole.

One of my favorite singer songwriters spanning many decades. I had so many of his records. He had tons of hit songs. "Cherry, Cherry", "Kentucky Woman", "Red Red Wine", "Solitary Man", "Sweet Caroline", "Holly Holy", "Cracklin' Rosie", "Song Sung Blue", "Longfellow Serenade", "Desirée", "You Don't Bring Me Flowers". One of my favorites is "I Am, I Said" which is almost an autobiography of his life & fame. He wrote the song "I'm A Believer" which became a big hit for the Monkees in 1966. I was privileged to see him in concert twice. He was a great showman & his live performances were memorable.

I love Neil Diamond! But, you guys have really only listened to some of his ballads. When I think of him, I'm boppin' to all of his upbeat songs like "Sweet Caroline", "Cracklin' Rosie", "Cherry, Cherry", "Kentucky Woman", "Thank the Lord for the Night Time", and if you really want emotional soaring you have to listen to "America". So for your next Neil song, I would suggest checking out the other side of him.

Neil has been favorite of mine for well over 50 years. He is a amazing songwriter and also a fantastic singer and outstanding performer. So glad I got to see him Live several times.

Thank you for this anthem to my life. When my then boyfriend and I were both in the Navy we parted ways in Guam and never expected to see each other again. Fate brought us back together on the other side of the world. We married in 1984 and he is now my guardian angel. Miss you, my love.

Neil Diamond might be the most underrated musical act in the history of music.

A must watch Film called The Jazz Singer. feat: Nail Diamond

Brothers Love Travelin Salvation Show is a different style for Neil! He is truly a man of God!

He is the greatest male vocalist, in my opinion. And, a super great person.

Cracklin Rosie, Love On the Rocks, Sweet Caroline, Holly Holy... there's definitely a list. :)

I Am I Said is a beauty of Neil's. He is a soft Rock God.

"Brother Love's Travelin' Salvation Show!" A different sound from Neil

Neil Diamond!!! More More More!!! And Barbra Streisand "Evergreen"!!!

Neil Diamonds voice is as smooth as silk. Hi and Barry Manila are crooners from the 70s

Andy Kim Rock me Gently is another 1970s big hit!

Whisky and Cigars are to be enjoyed with Neil Diamond music. The best for the best!

"SEPTEMBER MORN", reminds me of my Mom, who passed away this past September 22nd around 11am. She loved Neil Diamond. His song "RED RED WINE" was one of her favorites. A little trivia, he wrote the song "DAYDREAM BELIEVER" which The Monkees sang.

If You Know What I Mean by Neil Diamond is another good one, among his many hits.

"Play Me", "I Am I Said", and "Shiloh" are the top 3 Neil Diamond songs, imo. He had a few dozen that were top tier according to my taste. One of my all time favorite singers.

Neil Diamond is the man !!! Solitary Man is my personal favorite. (Amber will love the horns-studio version) So many hits to choose from.

@@yaimavol *You have to understand a few things about the period for this not to be creepy... First off, Boomers were the first generation not expected to be married (with kid on the way) by the time we hit 19. Nevertheless, up until roughly 1970, "Sweet Sixteen" parties were celebrated because they marked the point at which girls became "Eligible women". 14 may have been a bit younger than generally approved of, but it wasn't exactly shocking at the time.* *Second, he is reflecting the way the entire country felt about the Kennedy family. Every person alive at the time knows "November 22nd", and can remember the approximate time (around noon): the same was that people remember September 11. Everyone quite literally **_loved_** the remaining Kennedys. I never took this song as the creeper it is seen as today, I just figured he was mixing his present day reality with a possible future fantasy (that did not necessarily include Caroline K),which would have been pretty common for music at the time.*

There is a pantheon of artists from my youth that I treasure and Neil is one of them. One of the greatest singer songwriters of all time!!!

Oh yes I have that album to ( hot August night ) there are beautiful songs on it for the picking so very good he was a great singer , I think his health is not so great but yes I know age but I was and am a big fan of NEIL DIAMOND a good name for a great singer❤❤❤❤❤❤

He has a LOT or great music.

Pick any song by Neil Diamond and you will be impressed with the man every time. Love on the Rocks is my all time favourite song, ever.

Love him. I was married to my first husband when this song came out, and we danced to this song over and over. I was a September baby. He is gone now and an ex, but we remained friends and he passed away 2 years ago. A good memory.

Neil Diamond is the bomb! Did you know he wrote and performed the song Red Red Wine? You can't go wrong with Neil Diamond!

Neil Diamond is a favourite, what can I say. So many good songs. Hello Again is one of my personal favourites

Please guys add Mr. Neil Diamond to your Wonder Wall of musicians. Give him his flowers now, Lord knows he's given us so much!!!💎🙏🏽🥰💐💐💐

This is my favorite. I'm 65 and I remember my dad singing this song.

Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show has always been my favorite. Great performer. Lot of great songs to check out.

Great story about Neil Diamond. He used to routinely play at the Greek Theater in Los Angeles which was nestled in the hills and surrounded by trees. People who either couldn’t afford the tickets or it was sold out, they would climb up into the trees where they could watch and listen. Patrol usually made those people leave but Neil insisted the “tree people” be allowed to stay or he’d refuse to play. Groovy!!

I love his voice, you should watch the Jazz Singer if you haven't seen it yet. He played the part pretty good . Just have to say how much I enjoy watching you two together ❤ Can I suggest Melissa Ethridge for female Friday, especially her comeback after beating cancer when her and Joss stone did a tribute to your girl Ms. Janice Joplin the performance will knock your socks off😉

OMG have you guys not done Sweet Caroline yet?🥰🌻

For a faster paced more upbeat side of him try listening to "Cherry, Cherry".

Check out Neil’s performance on The Last Waltz!

Sweet Caroline , Cherry Cherry, Coming to America. I could go on and on and on

🎶 "After the lovin" very romantic song by Ingelbert Humperdinck 👍

Five For Fighting's "One More For Love" sounds very _Neil Diamond_ too.

With "Sweet Caroline" and "Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show" you will hear Neil singing more upbeat rhythms.

Beautiful song. Next time listen to one of his upbeat songs like Brother Love, Sweet Caroline or I'm Coming to America.

You should watch the move Jonathan Livingston seagull. Neal Diamond did the sound track. The movie and the sound track are awesome.

Neil Diamond has so so many beautiful songs and every one of his songs is my favorite. I’ve been listening to him since my teen years and even now as I am turning 68 soon, I listen to him daily trying to memorize all the words so I can sing along.

Have been to many Neil Diamond concerts…almost three hours of Heaven! Miss going since his diagnosis of Parkinson’s after his50th Anniversary concert!

'Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show live version from 1971 is a MUST DO!!! Neil is a special class all his own!!! Dreamtime!!!

I don't care who or what age you are, this song can give you the feels in a quick hurry.

Neil Diamond is such a great singer and awesome talent and I am, I said is my favorite song from him

My favorite Neil Diamond song is Coming to America, very patriotic.

“Sweet Caroline” is such a beautiful song by Neil Diamond as well…

Neil diamond will always give me warm fuzzies. I grew up listening to my parents playing the album Hot August Night. ❤️

❤❤❤ this song!! No one could sing it like Neil! But "Play Me" still has to be my favorite in his catalog.

My parents took me to 3 Neil concerts back in the 80’s and 90’s. So glad I can say I say him live.

My dad brought me up with Neil diamond in the 70's. I was obsessed with his music as a child.

Heartlight, Cracklin' Rosie and America are a few more good ones from Neil

I love Neil Diamond. I grew up llistening to this mans music. My Dad loved Neil. My Dad introduced me to all different kinds of music. We lost mmy Dad recently. I'll never forget his influence on my music loves. Rip Dad. We miss you.

In a musical sense the man is a genius. A few other Neil Diamond classics to check out, and there are many more, are Love On The Rocks, Hello Again, Beautiful Noise, Morningside, Stones, Glory Road, Girl You’ll Be A Woman Soon, I’m Glad You’re Here With Me Tonight and, my all time favourite Play Me. All beautiful songs sung to perfection.

"Hello Again" is another of Neil Diamond's love songs that pair well with this one.

I saw him in concert. The best show ever! “America,” and “Be.” Two greats!

Neil Diamond Holly Holy Live 1971!!!

If you want to hear the more powerful component of Neil’s voice, you need to hear Holly Holy. A gigantic piece of music.

Would love for you to react to Neil’s “anthem”…America. He wrote this song to honor his grandmother,who came to America by boat,as a very young child. He always displays her picture at his concerts as he sings this. He sings from his heart…so much emotion. Perfect time of year to introduce this song!

The story of my life. Not that well known, but beautiful, one of my favorites!

Neil Diamond soft as silk voice!

"Hello Again" is another love song that he hits out of the park..

Neil stopped performing in 2018,due to Parkinson’s disease. Beautiful Noise,a play of his life story,coming out in Boston…then Broadway. Can’t wait to see if Will Swenson can fill those big shoes!🔥❤️💎

He and Barbra Streisand went to the same high school, sang in the same school choral groups, have always been friends. That song always has me imagining he’s singing it to her. Just a little fantasy of mine. I love your reaction. TY
