New Neil Young Video Features Lincvolt EV
Neil Young loves the automobile with a passion, it's the giant oil conglomerates and carbon emissions that he's not too crazy about. In support of his upcoming car-themed concept album Fork in the Road -- which has basically pre-panned by critics based on a sample track and the theme -- Neil Young has filmed a low-tech music video in what is undoubtedly the most high-tech '59 Lincoln Continental the world has ever seen: Lincvolt.
The not so artistically shot video is for the track "Johnny Magic," which not only features the Lincvolt, but also appears to be an ode to the heavy metal beast itself:
"she goes long range on domestic green fuel,100 miles a gallon is the Continental rule."Not to knock a legend the rock, but the lyrics seem a little uninspired and/or overly simplistic ... kinda like we're listening to something from a bygone era of uncynical rock 'n' roll. Anyway, it's cool that Neil is still enthusiastic about the Lincvolt project. I'm thinking that the 'Continental rule' lyric has to do with the fact that the Neil's Continental has been entered into the 100mpg Automotive X-Prize.
