NEIL DIAMOND I Still Have Great Days

Last December, the audience at the opening night of Broadway’s A Beautiful Noise, the musical based on Neil Diamond’s life and music, received the ultimate treat. The beloved singer-songwriter appeared in the theater and led the cast and audience in singing a verse of his signature song, “Sweet Caroline.” The cheering and applause were thunderous and continued for several minutes. “I felt it,” Neil said of the love in the building.

In 2018, Neil, 82, who enjoyed 10 number-one singles, including “Cracklin’ Rosie,” “Song Sung Blue” and “You Don’t Bring Me Flowers” and who sold more than 130 million albums, announced that he’d been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, a progressive neurological disorder, and was retiring from touring. “Okay, so this is the hand that God’s given me, and I have to make the best of it, and so I am,” Neil says. “I’ve come to accept what limitations I have and still have great days.”
