Young spotted alone

A fan spotted Neil Young walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of September 15, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Neil back on the market?

A rep for Neil Young was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the musician was splitting hit the internet Wednesday (September 16), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Neil’s phone number?”
