                                    Neil Young- Sleep With Angels (Rock am Ring 2005)  

  Neil Young knew that Kurt Cobain (Nirvana) had a drug problem, and when he learned that an overdose of Kurt had nearly killed him in Rome, he tried to get in touch through the usual channels. with the singer/guitarist. That probably didn't work out, but ironically enough, in Kurt's suicide note after his suicide, there was a quote from one of Neil's most famous songs Hey,Hey,My,my "It's better to burn out than to fade away."

Dedicated to Kurt Cobain "Sleeps With Angels" She wasn't perfect She had some trips of her own He wasn't worried At least he wasn't alone Too late He sleeps with angels Too soon He's always on someone's mind He sleeps with angels Too late He sleeps with angels Too soon She was a teen queen She saw the dark side of life She made things happen But when he did it that night She ran up phone bills She moved around from town to town Too late He sleeps with angels Too soon He's always on someone's mind He sleeps with angels He sleeps with angels
