Diamond, Neil - Angel Above My Head Lyrics






If you're gonna be true to me
First, you've got to be true to yourself
Oh yeah
It don't matter 'bout nobody else
Oh, no
If it's there in your mind

It's a lesson I've just come to learn
Something
That I've only just begun to learn
Oh, yeah
For the very first time
For the very first time

Angel above my head
Calling my name in diff'rent places
Angel above my head
Saying it's alright
To show your face to the world

Everything seems new to me
Such a very recent turn of events
And the truth
Just doesn't make any sense
Oh, no
For the very first time

If we had another year or two
I would spend it being near to you
Oh, yeah
Like the very first time
Like the very first time

Angel above my head
Calling my name in diff'rent places
Angel above my head
Saying it's alright to show your face now

Angel above my head
Tapping me gently on my shoulder
That angel above my head
Saying it's time to be growing older
My friend

If you wanna be true to me
First you've got to be true to yourself
Oh, yeah
It don't matter 'bout nobody else
Oh, no
Keep me there in your mind
I'll be there by your side

    Wow, like Neil is here in my living room singing this to me lookingat photos of mom, my brother and father. God keeps them safe now. Thanks Neil

    Thanks for your comments Gena. I need to clarify here that this is not an official Neil Diamond channel. I am but a fan, been one since 1971 and I live in Australia.

    I never understood this one thing in Scandinavia, where men are said to be retired at 65! It was a very difficult time for my dad, til he found away to do community work. Men, to me are a sum total and their Best in and about , after 60. Before that boys...It is one thing I love about America, you never have to retire, if you have the health , energy, and mind. Your life experiences are Pearls, to yourself and those you touch. Beautiful song.🇩🇰🇺🇸🦅🐬♥️

    e.... h....

    I have a slightly different view. Not being acquainted with Scandinavia, I surmise that with 65 being the retirement age, that is is not cast in stone; that if one so desires, one is able to remain in the workforce. It must come down to personal choice. I am guessing that, as a progressive society, the belief is that having worked all your working life that you are entitled to enjoy the fruits of the decades of your working life in your twilight years. Being a progressive/socialist society, the individual is valued more; their quality of life has a greater emphasis than in say, the dog eat dog aspects of the United States.

    Former Vice President Hurbert Humphrey - _“The moral test of government is how that government treats those who are in the dawn of life, the children; those who are in the twilight of_ _life, the elderly; those who are in the shadows of life, the sick, the needy and the handicapped.”_

    Once again, you framed Neil Diamond's amazing voice with wonderful images that evoke emotions that only you & Neil Diamond could bring forth!! Happy
    New Year Doug!!

    Thanks so very much for your kind compliment Francine, high praise indeed. It is wonderful people such as you who make my efforts all the more worthwhile. On average, each video takes approximately 30-50 hours to create from start to finish. Until they go live, I have no idea just how they will be received. As a rule, I do not view any videos relating to the song I'm about to work on, prior to the commencement of my videos; I do not wish to permit the thoughts of other YouTube uploaders to influence my thoughts.

    If I am not mistaken this song was featured on a proposed album titled Story of my Life together with some classics like, Heaven can Wait, Long Nights Hold On, I'm saying I'm sorry, Moonlight Rider etc. Columbia rejected it and forced him to record some substandard stuff (by his standards) and released the album as Headed for the Future, which was and still is arguably his worst album. It is remarkable that the record label can reject what could have been one of his best albums in the '80s and get him to replace it with arguably one of his worst. All I say is that Capitol should now release the original Story of my Life in its entirety. COME ON CAPITOL.

    R.... M....

    Thanks for your comments. I seem to remember reading something like that, am unsure though about the details. Here is a video for you -

    I do not think he looks very much like his mother. Take a look at the photos of his father when he was a young man. I think Neil inherited the best features of both his parents that made him look drop dead gorgeous when he was young, when the girls were screaming for him, the girls who would be women soon.

    Here is a video of a song Neil composed and sang to his grandson Elijah when he was one year old, in 2001... beautiful - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5c-weDStntI Best wishes, Doug

    @NEIL DIAMOND CENTRAL Olá amigo...se eu entendi bem...vc pergunta se vivo em Portugal? Não. .eu sou Brasileira. ..vivo no Brasil e não sei inglês. ...mas minha alma sabe e se encanta com as músicas. ..

    R.... V....

    Thanks for your comment Rosana. Yes, as your comments are in Portuguese, I asked if you lived in Portugal. I live in Australia.

    It will help you if you used Google Translate (Google Tradutor) - https://translate.google.com/?hl=en&tab=TT

    I have come across many fans of Neil Diamond who do not speak or understand English, I guess that this is because Neil speaks to your soul. After all music is a universal language. Best wishes, Doug

    Doug, ik ben ouders op een jonge leeftijd verloren,vandaag,dat ik niet reageer als anderen. Daarom zeg ik, en blijf het zeggen, zeg vaker tegen je ouders, ik hou van jou. Liefs. Marian. P.s. Ik blijf reageren op mijn manier , en mijn gevoelens!!!!!

  37. M.... V....

    Dit lied is voor iedereen, die vaak vergeet tegen zijn ouders te zeggen, pa,ma ik hou van je. Dat moeten we met z’n allen vaker doen, en een omarming!!!! Love you marian.

    Thanks for your comments Suzanne, much appreciated. It is indeed a pity that non-artistic bean-counters held such sway back them. Their unwise decision to shelve Neil's proposed album 'The Story Of My Life' denied us this gem and probably others. So glad that Neil decided to release this song in his 'In My Lifetime' 3-CD Box Set of 1996. Take care, Doug

    Thanks for your comments Janine. My pleasure. I had to take care just how I approached this song. I was mindful that it had to be respectful of Neil, his Dad and family. Take care, Doug

    Dank je wel voor het compliment, ik zag de loefde tussen vader en zoon en moeder,gelijkenis. Mijn vader is ook als eerste gestorven, ik was 18, mijn broers hadden verzwegen, dat pa zou gaan,kwam in het ziekenhuis, en hij lag al in coma! Liefs marian.

    What a beautiful tribute to Neil's dad. And such a resemblance to him. His mother was gorgeous as well. Great memories for him.

    D.... B....

    Thanks for your kind comments Donita, much appreciated. I did not realise the striking resemblance until I began the morph process at 3:39. Upon closer inspection during the morph process, I noticed his Mum's characteristics in Neil. Rose is certainly gorgeous. This wonderful, sprightly lady will be 100 years young in September this year!

    Wow. A centaurian. My mom was one month away from her 98th two years ago. Didn't quite make it. She was an angel.

    Doug this song is beautiful and I love the pictures! Thank you for a great job! Keep them coming!

    Thanks for your kind comments Diane, much appreciated. During the entire process of creating this video, the thought foremost in my mind was to treat Neil, his precious Dad and his family with the sensitivity and respect due them. Where to from here as far as videos go? Heaven knows... I'll await the next inspiration... Best wishes, Doug

    Thanks for the compliment Miemsie, it makes the effort all the more worthwhile. I take great pride in the videos I create; a true labour of love. Best wishes, Doug

  54. S.... B....

    Doug, another beautiful creation by you! An awesome tribute to Neil's father. The photos bring a smile to your face and also tears to your eyes.

    S.... B....

    Thanks for your kind words Sandy, always a pleasure to hear from you. This was a difficult one as my sole aim was to treat Neil, his precious Dad and his family with the sensitivity and respect due them. Throughout the project I sought to capture the strong bond, love and respect they had for each other. Take care, Doug

  55. C.... H....

    Touching tribute to your dad. You are truly a good person and an even a wonderful son! I’m sure he was very proud of you.

    C.... H....

    Thanks for your comment Claudette. Neil certainly is on both counts. Akeeba Diamond was always proud of his son; indeed both of his sons. I remember an interview that Neil did where he mentioned that in the 60s when he was but a struggling young singer/songwriter, attending university, and helping out in his parents a dry-goods/haberdashery shop - "Diamond's" in Brooklyn, that his dad proudly displayed a photograph of Neil. He would proudly acclaim to customers that that was his son Neil and that he would one day be famous. How right he was! Best wishes, Doug

  56. N.... P....

    A good family produces good sons. A touching gift that remembers the importance of roots.

    N.... P....

    Thanks for your comments Nadia. Indeed a touching a tribute to his Dad, written shortly after he suddenly passed away. Gone too soon.

  57. L.... H....

    Never heard this song before. What ablum did this come from or is it new music

    Thanks for your comment Les. This song wasn't on any particular album, it was included 'In My Lifetime' 3-CD Box Set (1996). Please refer to my notes by clicking on the _SHOW MORE_ tab located beneath the video.
