You, HONESTLY, just said Raine is better than Neil Young?! You, sir, are out of your mind.
Gogo olp and all, but for the love of pete, Raine Maida is not as talented (or dedicated) a musician as Neil Young. Seriously.

I never said Raine was a better Musician, I said Raine's vocals add another level to the song. I love Neil Young's work especially his stuff with CSN, but Raine's vocals will blow his outta the water anyday.

I think Raine does have an added dimesion to his voice. Neil Young is great, but we are allowed to appreciate Mr. Maida's excellent voice........it gets me up.........wait I have to go the bathroom, I just blew my load.

Hey Curtis pay them no mind. I am not a big JEFF BUCKLEY Fan, but I love OLP's version of Eternal Life.. so if you like how Raine sings Needle better then Neil so what, so be it. I actually like OLP's version better. It is bluesy, sexual. I don't care for Neil Young's version> Too slow.
I always felt that OLP has this imense talent where they can do a cover and make it sound like it was one of their own songs. That to me is talent. It doesn't matter if I like the origianl song. I love all the OLP covers.
