Neil Diamond once called “I Am… I Said” the hardest song he ever wrote — not because of the melody, but because it came from the deepest part of himself.
In the early 1970s, Neil was at a crossroads. He had left New York — his childhood home — and moved to Los Angeles. Surrounded by palm trees and success, he should’ve felt on top of the world… but instead, he felt lost.

During that time, he began writing what would become one of his most autobiographical songs. It took him over four months to finish, as he struggled to put into words the emotional tug-of-war between who he was… and who the world expected him to be.

💬 “I am,” he cried, “I said… to no one there.”
Those words echoed the loneliness he felt — the sense that even in a crowd, even with fame and fortune, something essential was missing. A home. A place. A self.

This wasn’t a song about love or heartbreak — it was about identity, belonging, and the human need to be heard. And when Neil sang it, he wasn’t performing. He was confessing.

Let’s listen to “I Am… I Said” by Neil Diamond, a powerful, soul-baring anthem from a man who taught us that even the strongest voices sometimes just want to be understood.

Two of my favourite singers

Two Voices, One Goodbye

It began as a solo — Neil Diamond first recorded “You Don’t Bring Me Flowers” in 1977. It was soft, sorrowful, and deeply personal. Then came Barbra Streisand’s own solo version a year later — equally heartbreaking. But when radio DJs began splicing their versions together, something magical happened. Two hearts, once together, now drifting apart — one man, one woman, singing the same grief from opposite ends of a fading love.

“You don’t bring me flowers… You don’t sing me love songs…”

When Neil and Barbra officially recorded it as a duet, it became an instant classic. Their chemistry wasn’t romantic — it was raw honesty, performed by two of the greatest voices of a generation. The way they build from quiet disappointment to aching confrontation feels like listening in on a private, final conversation between two people who once meant everything to each other.

The song doesn’t scream. It whispers. It doesn’t blame. It mourns.

At the 1980 Grammy Awards, their live performance left the audience in stunned silence before erupting into applause. It was more than a song — it was theater. A goodbye in slow motion.
