S.O.D. "Song Sung Blue" by Neil Diamond

5/27/2021 One of Diamond’s most successful tunes, being nominated for two Grammys in 1973. It charted well internationally, ranking #1 in New Zealand and the US. Diamond was inspired by Mozart’s Piano Concerto #21 to write the song. He comments on the song as a “very basic message unadorned. I didn’t even write a bridge to it. I never expected anyone to react to “Song Sung Blue” the way they did. I just like it, the message and the way a few words said so many things.” Mr. Diamond is still with us at age 80. Neil Diamond is his real name.
