A lot of lyrics during the late 60s and into the early 70s were often a form of social commentary. Like Marvin Gaye's Whats Going On and Inner City Blues for example. These particular songs (and numerous others by various artist) resonated either political, social, or economic themes.

This (protest) song dealt with the shooting and killing of four college students at Kent State University in 1970.



Written and composed by Neil Young.
