Crosby, Stills & Nash - Almost Cut My Hair Lyrics

"body bags" brought me here.....

Just heard the beginning. Holy orgasm.

Retired at birth1962,been retired now 57 years.

Ya man too many people from my generation listen to such crap music, I much prefer this... what a shame

What a song what an album.
Davy Knowles brought me here.
Had to hear the spirit of the original!

So good to hear thos agian. I'm glad younger people are too

Have not cut my hair in 25years

I listened to this while waiting at the barber shop. Oh, the irony.

One of the greatest anti war Protestant songs ever written. I love and miss you dad. Thank you for all you taught me. I'll do my best to pass it on, I PROMISE

I'm not cutting my hair until we get rid of this dictator.

It's getting really long. I want to cut it.

Can you help?

Yo bud. This is america. No dictator here

406 people cut their hair

Great song. I'd love to hear Bruce cover this!

This song could've been in Joker. "Gonna find some space behind a laugh, separate the wheat form the chaff."

All I can say is Crosby Stills and Nash are really fantastic ,I really like Dark star.

David crosby hermosa voz

Excellence

I had fuck "nam

I remember the days of possible ass pounding if you were in the wrong place/time in Los Angeles. Safety in numbers whenever possible.

what an absolute GREAT SONG!!!!!!!! i agree i am so happy to have been brought up to this music and not the pop of today!!

I married a hair stylist . . .

Classic song in A minor...nuff said

You had to be there to really understand....a different place and time with a few sights and sounds left like this song to open that doorway again for those who were there.

I have not my Hair, bad

Ive been growing my hair 4 years now. I almost cut mine last week when I was tripping hard on mushrooms. Thank god I didn't. I never heard this song until today but I really feel like this.

The opening is so crunchy. Love this song and love CSNY!!! Rock on

I thought this song was about if he wanted to stay a hippie or not

Yes I feel like I owe it .... To someone

Love this cool old. Toon

This song made me want to grow out my hair and I hear it in my head when I think of cutting it.

💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗

Ultimate rock masterpiece hard to match.

Find it hard to listen to this these day's love the album but to see what dave crosby was was convict of it make's me feel sick

If any good can come out of this political nightmare that we are living in it would be if we could come together again united in the spirit of old and rediscover brotherly love and the music that celebrated it.

let there be no PANIC and may FEAR be FAR from ALL

I won‘t cut my hair!

Eccelso!

Jim Holt - had the long hair - got this album - this combination of musicians was a super nova - a coming together of talent that shone bright but burnt out too soon. What a riff

I bet Neil’s got a Gretch....

I miss the silly young and harmless freaks and looney tribes of peaceful but spaced out hippies.

Classic!!!

Genius!

Good years where you could make an album with guitar out of tune, but the vocals always on pitch ... thank you for these years ..

Buy a 🐐 to mow the grass..

This song brings back so many wonderful memories!! Absolutely love Neil Young’s voice!

David Crosby's voice...Neil's guitar...I feel... like I owe it... to someone...

Then I listened 1000 times to this when I had long hair myself. And I'm still melting away when I hear it.

Guess what I almost did today

i love neil youngs guitar playing

all time FAV

57 @ I still get it !!!!🙏💜✌

That's what I'm talking bout !!! I still get it !!!😘🙏💜✌

I'm not a dad but I'm still commenting.

who's the vocalist in that song?

The guy sitting on the couch with the shotgun...and the long hair. David Crosby ladies and gentlemen....

@Don Hammond thx buddy

Phuck, that's good ! <3<3<3<3<3<3<3

My neighbors learned to like this song the hard way.

I almost cut my nose hair

"Almost cut my hair, Happened just the other day.
It's gettin' kind of long, I could've said it was in my way.
But I didn't and I wonder why. I feel like letting my freak flag fly.
And I feel like I owe it, yeah ... to someone,"
Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young (1970)

The struggle is real, the struggle is old.

David's vocals are perfection 🤘

I wonder if this generation finds this lament about "almost " cutting one's hair strange? I'm sure they can't understand unless someone explains it to them. So kids here it is, "Long hair was our anti establishment statement of that moment ".

"I feel like I owe it to someone"... You can hear Crosby's devastating grief in the aftermath of Christine Hinton's death, coupled with disdain for the oppressive American establishment, and that incendiary Stills-Young dual lead guitar work.... This is one of the most powerful rockers in the canon to me.

Gotta dig out that album......troubled times....great friends

I WAS YOUNG IN THE 70s WHEN l HEARD THIS SONG .
THIS SONG GIVE ME A SENSE OF FREEDOM...OF FLYING.
IT'S AMAZING..THAT AFTER MANY DECADES l STILL FEEL THOSE SAME SENSATIONS WHEN HEAR HER.✌😎

Have not cut my hair for 10 years because of this song. A lot easier when your retired

Love it!

the manbun is dead!

Was watching Body Bags, now I'm here. Spark it up friends....

please, dont...

Yesterday I almost cut my hair,
I didn't and I wonder why,
I feel like letting my freak flag fly,
I feel like I owe it to someone.

well, one does own it to someone.
take your pick...

Went to the hair saloon today... they didnt have time for me

I almost cut my hair
It happened just the other day
It was gettin' kinda long
I could-a said, it was in my way
But I didn't and I wonder why
I feel like letting my freak flag fly
And I feel like I owe it to someone

Must be because I had the flu for Christmas
And I'm not feelin' up to par
It increases my paranoia
Like lookin' at my mirror and seein' a police car
But I'm not givin' in an inch to fear
Cause I promised myself this year
I feel like I owe it to someone

When I finally get myself together
I'm gonna get down in that sunny southern weather
And I find a place inside to laugh
Separate the wheat from the chaff
I feel like I owe it to someone

Enormous <3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3

Ich have the original vinyl ❤️

I almost did too. But seeing as how it was my last one, I didn't.

"I will now proceed to entangle the entire area." If you couldn't hear this at the beginning of the song YOU DIDN'T HAVE IT LOUD ENOUGH!

YES ...

Hey, blow it out your bunghole, junior, I thought the point of the whole movement was mutual respect - not judging your sister or brother. It isn't a complete dismissal of the movement to say a song was silly.

I'm 25 and I'm going on a year plus not cutting my hair. Feels so liberating. Never conform to the White collar standards. Peace everybody

the lines of sunshine through the window blinds onto my wall. And then they started melting

Almost :) QC

Aw, come on, this is a pretty silly song.

You look pretty silly

@Jacob Gonzalez What you say is what you are.

You are a fool for not understanding the lyrics. Not cutting your hair meant you were a freak and rejecting the society as it stood then. Do try to understand history.

I've never heard this song til right now. What a great song!

This is music man!

Un des grands super groupes de ces années là,voix magnifiques,et musiques.Un régal!!!

Back in the day, 1970's Madison, there was a gal who lived below me on Johnson street, that loved this song. Every time I hear this, I remember her. Can't remember her name, but I do her energy...she was marvelous.

Cut my hair ten years ago. Still feel like a goddamned fool for doing it!

Love you Dad! Summertimes in LA, dad and mom stories, in the 70s out the Navy and Army stories. All time summertime BBQ music.

Jodee, jodee,, "Pedazo de discazooo!!! Sin concesiones a ningún matiz que no esté en su sitio... Grandes.......

not much hair left to cut anymore.

For me it's the best song written by David... Lyrics are full of sense !!! I'm French but I can understand the feelings of American youth in the late 60's...

❤❤❤❤❤

Semplicemente fantastica...........niente più

David McGown : Salute and congr. for ret. ..... Wish you good healt

I just love this kind of music. I'm 22, all my friends listen to this garbage music from the charts. stupid autotuned rap music. i will never understand how you can prefer this crap to all these masterpieces from the 60s and 70s.
If anyone reads this comment, have a nice day <3 greetings from germany

@Bertrand Eberhard
We should have just gave Ho chi Minh
The fucking helmets .

Hey brother! You deserve more opinions and more likes for your coments, really. I'm agree with you, Led Zepp, Sabbath, Deep Purple, Uriah Heep...there are much more to explore and discover in this music. greetings from Colombia \m/

cant agree you more, brother. 29 from Taiwan and greeting to all the liberals around the world.

It’s just the sign of the times “unfortunate but so so true

Im 27 and I feel the same. I love CSN, Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Hendrix, Cream, etc. It's tough being the guy that likes all of the old stuff because everyone else listens to hip hop and electronica.

Separate the wheat from the chaff.

I wonder how many people would still follow Jesus if He had short hair.

rock and roll

Who‘s here because of this rude interview???

Stumbled across this song so glad I checked it out

almost cut my hair - almost - but never quite did - those of us who grew up with this understand - not giving an inch - and it's a good song
