Description
From a tender love song in 1969 to a stadium anthem sung by thousands… Neil Diamond’s Sweet Caroline has taken quite a journey.
Originally written for his wife, Marcia, it became a global sing-along — especially on the football terraces.
But for me, Neil’s deepest magic lies in the songs that cut to the core, like I Am… I Said… written when he was lost between two shores, with one line that still sparks debate: “Not even the chair.”
