Neil Young - Angry World Lyrics






Some see life as a broken promise
Some see life as an endless fight
They think they live in the age of darkness
They think they live in the age of Light

It's an Angry world
And everything is gonna be all right
Yeah it's an angry world
Yeah it's an angry world

Some see life as hope eternal
Some see life as a business plan
Some will go to hell's inferno
For screwing up their life in freedom land

It's an Angry world
For the business man and the fisher man
It's an Angry world
And no doubt everything will go as planned
Yeah it's an angry world
Yeah it's an angry world

  9. G.... ....

    Powerful Neil. Absolutely wizardry.

  10. J.... D....

    turn the volume all the way up

  11. W.... m....

    104 dislikes were made by Republicans.

    W.... m....

    you mean assholes.

    W.... m....

    Intellectually lazy much? @Where's my Irish whiskey? Tullamore.

    W.... m....

    ignorant assumption.

    W.... m....

    "Some see life as an endless fight" - sounds like a lot of Democrats nowadays tbh

    W.... m....

    Where's my Irish whiskey? Tullamore. , it’s a wild concept to wrap your head around, but many of us love Neil. I love his music enough to drive from Atlanta to St. Louis then Chicago for 3 shows in 4 days, then back to Atlanta.

  12. G.... M....

    he has been through a lot as any artist gets... i think aneurysm is a great inspiration and he has survived a lot...

  13. s.... s....

    have to be in the right frame of mind for Neil's new stuff ,like a bottle of aged wine you nurse into gradually

  14. w.... ....

    You got that right.

  15. S.... b....

    Dinlemeyeli 1 yıla yakın oldu, ne güzel bir şarkısın sen

    J.... ....

    German Shepard's *the only dog*

  17. D.... S....

    Does the voice say Hates me Hates me Hates me etc. at the beginning, or what is it?

    D.... S....

    +Alex Colberg "Angry."

    D.... S....

    "Hate me" is correct. And then at the end it says "love". They were taken from part of Neil's vocal track..somewhere.

    D.... S....

    It's clearly "Angry."

  18. s.... s....

    LOVE THIS MAN

  19. w.... ....

    It's an Angry Whopper World

  20. D.... M....

    I'm cool with this winning the grammy considering all the great music Neil has made that has been ignored by stupid awards shows, but this isn't even close to being the best song on Le Noise.

  21. C.... M....

    I love Le Noise, but honestly I think Hitchhiker is a superior tune to Angry World. 

  22. �.... �....

    psychedelic video

  23. D.... B....

    neil young is sounding like godflesh selfless era that cool for an old dude, hail neil!

    D.... B....

    good point -- but I'd say it the other way around, they are sounding a little like Neil -- he was one of the pioneers of this kind of dirty tripping guitar sounds ... you can even hear it coming in some of the jams on 4 way street, 1971... hey hey, my my

    D.... B....

    ambassadorportal Better point , right back at u. . i too have been listening to Neil since 74 , and am aware that he listened to everybody else from that era ,including that guy called Jimmi , and what he didnt make up himself he probably got ideas from the others ,so ya he grew all this in his own Garden . i also am getting older so didnt really recognize any other band references . the 60 s boys were First. peace

  24. m.... ....

    This video is cool as hell. Lot's of electromagnetic activity from the 3 Comets coming our way.YEAH!...Long Live CSN.....and Y!

  25. C.... F....

    fucking hated this song initially, love it now

  26. t.... ....

    is he the winner of pop idol- neil young?

  27. C.... W....

    Long live NY

  28. T.... E....

    Lol probably shoulda phrased that a tad differently.. I meant I was In Vacation in the US and. just happened to stop at a Walmart when i was there. But yeah That would totally be "bright" celebration

  29. T.... E....

    Went to A walmart in the U.S. for a vacation.. looked for a Neil young Cd.. apparently they never heard of em... Bitch please!!!?!!?!?

    T.... E....

    Mabey at walmarts but alot of us in Wv/Appalachia listen to Him

  30. P.... B....

    This - and the entire album for that matter - really needs to be listened to at an astounding true to live volume on a full-range stereo. The production just begs for that.

  31. D.... M....

    not a fan of this, but looks like rest of you guys enjoy it :)

  32. m.... ....

    Just because they don't like this song doesn't mean they are "assholes" Your are defeating the whole point of the song you are listening to.

  33. r.... c....

    never heard this before,it started out a little weak and then that guitar and those sounds were just walkin all over me.

  34. C.... M....

    what???? confused to what is this garage song that never should have gotten out...

  35. M.... ....

    Yeah Neil it is an angry world but a few have a Peace that surpasses all human understanding., I am one.

  36. C.... ....

    87 assholes.

  37. m.... ....

    Neil at his BEST!

  38. f.... b....

    87 people dont know what music is.... PEACE!!!!

  39. L.... ....

    Life is a lotta people.

  40. J.... S....

    The man, the legend

  41. v.... ....

    woah it was nataraga a statue of a Indian god cooool

  42. v.... ....

    awarded as the most rocking song of the year 2011 or 2012 :)

  43. B.... ....

    ...... Much respcet mate ,keep on rocking ..happy days.

  44. A.... P....

    brilliant

  45. C.... F....

    this isnt grunge, its more like grunge

  46. s.... h....

    great song

  47. H.... ....

    he still has that voice!

  48. m.... ....

    This song makes me thinks at the white stripes but ... without drums! :) good song

  49. S.... ....

    @atomicwedgieify Yeah if it got kicked up the arse with a distortion pedal!

  50. d.... ....

    Neil looked out of his mansion and over his hundreds of acres in Northern Cali and decided to rearrange the room. Would the ornate organ look good over there in front of the window? THEN he noticed the anger out here. Seriously, what is the deal with the video? I love the opening with the satellite/moon arcing over the sky, but then? Shouldn't it show some of the....anger that the song so beautifully and perfectly captures? Anyone else think the video is an odd match for the song?

  51. p.... ....

    Mr Shakey nails the TRUTH

  52. b.... ....

    @Birgalicious75 yep, but the Grammies are so wack....Tighten Up sounds more R&B to me than this...as Neil said ' there is no best in music'

  53. T.... ....

    when neil young dies im going to cry

    T.... ....

    Me too bro.

  54. T.... ....

    @atomicwedgieify lol you must be talking about the lyrics because the song itself sounds nothing like that song... and if you mean the lyrics then you must of meant tears for fears mad world

  55. m.... ....

    What a great album, Neil is the man!

  56. B.... ....

    Not a bad song, but 'Tighten Up' was better

  57. L.... ....

    @ifeeltiredsleepy right..Santa Cruz mountains for nearly 40 years...I'm a Canuck myself..in the US since 85 and moving to No Cal next year

  58. r.... ....

    @drumrz2 One of the most true statements I have ever read. Well said!

  59. M.... ....

    @kincoism Actually, I think he lives in California, and he retains Canadian citizenship.

  60. C.... S....

    1. he won the best song award with a song of just him and a guitar with an overdub or two 2. hes neil young ... thats all i need to prove hes awesome

  61. R.... ....

    the world is so screwed up today by armchair politicians, war hungry generals, greedy corporations and their minions, certain countries using their wealth and influence to bully other nations to plunder earth's fragile natural resources, etc...neil sings from the heart and soul, keep the music coming, neil!

  62. g.... ....

    godfather of grunge

  63. D.... C....

    Neil Young has the worst greatest voice there ever was! It's like this, he's such an artist that he can work it out and create music that we love.

  64. T.... B....

    I'm glad this was chosen over Little fucking lion man.

  65. R.... W....

    No doubt everything will go as planned... Yeah...

  66. W.... P....

    @nealold1 Spot on assessment...Neil is a no nonsense, honest musician. Free from boundaries, presumption, and silly pop "iconery."

  67. j.... ....

    @Remulaktake2 Long May He Run!

  68. h.... ....

    love the song and the mix.
    WowNeil looks here just like Jan Schrama..

  69. M.... ....

    @Remulaktake2 still got bob dylan

  70. T.... C....

    Theres plenty of good rock bands out right now, I'm fucking sick of people saying that. Check out Black Keys, My Morning Jacket, Dead Confederate, Alberta Cross, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club for starters.

  71. K.... ....

    @johnnyscouser check out The Black Keys if you're living on the moon for the last ten years. Plus Neil rules you dumb.

  72. S.... O....

    great stuff!

  73. c.... ....

    The lyrics do seem a tad inane. But surely Neil Young has better songs to be remembered for.
    Gosh .. I so avoid listening to "Philadelphia". Am reduced to a hopeless, sentimental ass when I listen to it :-)

  74. k.... ....

    Personally, I like the song. It's a million miles away from being Neil's greatest, but it's relevant. Personally, however, if I had to choose any single song from the "Le Noise" album to win this Grammy, it definately would've been "Love and War". And to all those who are hating on Neil and are like "wot?", as the person above, look at his discography. The man's managed to create 43 solo albums. Nuff said, period. And Neil Young lives in New York. He's not yours anymore, Canada. Get over it.

  75. c.... ....

    His voice hasn't changed!

  76. m.... ....

    @preds420 Yes. Yes he is. He's an amazing creative genius that has managed to stay relevant over many decades. Rachel McAdams is Canadian too. Thanks for her too.

  77. z.... ....

    I'll stick with Sugar Mountain. This is rubbish.

  78. B.... ....

    @dietmrfizz What type of excuse is that? Canada should never be considered the 51st state, ever.

  79. C.... F....

    his voice is annoying, like billy maddison's voice when talking to the penguin

  80. m.... ....

    @Gamer1984 Artists come to America to PROSPER! If he'd stayed in Canada, everyone would be like, "Neil who?"
    USA USA USA!

  81. c.... ....

    I wish this album waited a bit.,,,,I love Dan's work and Neil but this has not grown on me at all.It's rare that I'm even critical.

  82. B.... P....

    What a beautiful man. No homo.

  83. J.... W....

    I love Neil Young and I like this song, but how did this win a grammy for best rock song? There were so many other better rock songs

  84. T.... ....

    @Gamer1984 - I'd say his album "Living With War" makes him a good bit American, too.

  85. D.... ....

    @diggitymoon Little Lion Man is the best! <3

  86. J.... M....

    I love Neil Young's music but Little Lion Man shoulda won the Grammy. It was by far more powerful and will hold up in the long run. This sounds like a b-side or filler song. And to those who say he can't rock well you're way off. Just search something like "Neil Young and Pearl Jam" and you'll see what I mean.

  87. C.... F....

    his voice doesnt really seem to be suitable to the guitar or visa versa, but thats just my opinion

  88. a.... ....

    dude .. this song is quite overrated ... i mean winning the best rock song of the year.. from my oppinion this is not that good of a rock song , he`s voice is just way to soft , the guy can sing a folk song country song or w.e but just can`t rock(only reffering on this song ).

  89. r.... s....

    @darkcowboyhero lofl..........that guy pwn3d you so fucking bad

  90. r.... s....

    @Raazer u can't talk sense to douchebags like "darkcowboyhero". He is just some punk kid internet troll trying to start shit. He probably thinks Ke$ha is the best singer in the world.

  91. S.... M....

    I968Velle, this was one of the awards that they actually got right at the Grammys.

    That, and the Arcade Fire win.

  92. A.... P....

    when you rock, you rock

  93. Z.... ....

    as a great fan of neil for the past 39 years and having personally met him several times to thank him for his music, i thought i had lost my mind at 53 years old when i heard this after hearing he had finally won a grammy award... it's typical neil on the far side experimental but definitely, in my opinion, not one of his best. maybe it's one tune that has to be heard right where it was recorded to appreciate the reverberation? he's still a legend, grammy or not. thankx for the post...

  94. C.... O....

    Is this a joke? How is this the best rock song of the year?

  95. A.... W....

    I really love Neil Young, and think he's written some fantastic songs, but I'm sorry, this production just sounds sloppy. Neil's thin voice is better suited for the sound coming out of his guitar in southern man; it's just squashed by that huge, heavy, bass n' mids guitar.
    And that looped vocal sounds like it belongs in a euro-house song. It feels grating.

    Congrats to Neil; he deserves Grammys for Needle and the Damage Done, for Old Man, and many more, but for this? This was a miss.

  96. m.... ....

    @PhunkYouInTheEye ya, I'm pretty sure that he won this year just because they want to make up for his years before. this is not his best song. But Neil Young deserves to be rocognise.

  97. t.... ....

    @drummerboyz24
    Mumford and Sons? Maybe because they aren't rock.

  98. R.... ....

    @RiverRat99 no, I am not aware, so how to I emphasize anything, I do realize if you cap alot it looks like yelling. Please educate me Obi-wan.....

  99. t.... ....

    Hey hankd18, music is very personal, I happen to love Neil's music and have for many, many years. I like this song very much. Odds are, if you were to tell me what you liked, I wouldn't. Take it for what it is.

    Congrats Neil for a well deserved Grammy!!
