The icon, who will be presented... He can't be an "icon," he's white.
Besides, those involved in music are "moguls." Icons are involved in "civil rights."

Many great memories with friends and family playing and singing along with Neil Diamond. Regrets he’s suffering with Parkinson’s.

He’s 77, and now has decided to stop touring. That’s amazing.

Interesting. Thanks for posting. My mom died after a 20 year battle with Parkinson, one week short of her 78th birthday.

That VIDEO makes me cry .......... and I am a 71 year old man. But the beauty of that song, the relationship they illustrate for each other ........ and of course the voices, my God the voices.
Thank you for enjoying it.

Love Neil!
Always gave his fans 100%.
To: Gene Eric
Hes 77, and now has decided to stop touring.
a few years ago I saw a video clip of one of his live concerts at the time and he sounded absolutely awful. I loved all his songs when he was in his prime but sometimes you just have to know when to quit.

Went to a couple of his concerts in the 70s, the man was a true performer, ranked with Elvis {never crazy about him} and The Chairman of The Board.

Neil Diamond was many times better than Elvis, Sinatra, and all.

Retires after diagnoses of a very tough disease.
Knows he can’t deliver the performance his customers deserve.
Knows that his time is limited, wants to be with friends, family, check a few items off the bucket list, while still remaining active in the field he loves, doing what he can.
Sen Juan Mc-Shiite-Stain, are you reading FR today?
