I like the ranking save for my love of Rust Never Sleeps which is top 5 easily and maybe top 2.

Speaking of Powderfinger, that acoustic version from Hitchhiker might be my favourite Neil Young song.

its like...No Code? In a way?

I absolutely love the haunting numbers such as prime of life and safeway cart.

Change your mind is one of his absolute best and piece of crap is just brilliant horse garage rock.

Western Hero and My Heart are lovely.

I feel Sleeps With Angels its kinda like a tom waits version for Neil. There are a lot of slow burners, there is an eerie sound to it, there is a lot of piano driven songs....
