Neil Young: What Is Wrong With George Bush?

Canadian folk rock legend slams US war against Iraq


Neil Young: ‘Americans were deluded if they thought they were liberating Iraq’

Canadian folk rock legend Neil Young said he has lost all hope that music can change the world, as he presented a documentary about his 2006 anti-war concert tour at the Berlin film festival on Friday.

"I don't think the tour had any impact on voters."

"What is wrong with George Bush? That would take a really long time. Let's talk about what is right with him, it is a much shorter answer.
