Neil Diamond Sings COVID-19

Daily Wire  "Neil Diamond is 79, and he still sounds so good, so good.
Rather than join in the pool of celebrities giving a botched rendition of John Lennon’s “Imagine” during these trying times, beloved singer Neil Diamond performed his own coronavirus edition of his 1969 classic “Sweet Caroline.”
"Posted on Saturday, the heartwarming video featured the elderly Diamond sitting by the fireplace with his dog at his side as he strummed an acoustic guitar; his voice still as sweet as the song itself."




"The video went viral, earning over 2.2 million views within hours. People across social media applauded Diamond, not only for his comforting message but also his sense of humor.
“ 'Thank you, Mr. Diamond. During this time, we can’t be physically touching hands, but we can [be] ‘reaching out’ to one another virtually,” tweeted Chief Art Acevedo. “The silver lining in this temporary national and global challenge is it will remind us we are radically dependent on one another. Let’s seize the moment, reset as people, and let’s be kind to one another. Let’s lift each other up with acts of kindness.' ” . . . Hat tip to Jeff Hayden, Texas.
