Neil Young: The RS Interview : Rolling Stone
Based on that interview (which is from 1975, by the way), he seems to feel misunderstodd, saying he wouldn't want to release a series of albums if he thought they would give people the impression that they knew what he was about. Ironic then, that we are tyring to type him He seems pretty focused on keeping integrity, and he said he felt responsible for his friends death (his friend and rythem guitarist OD'ed on heroin and died).
"I'd rather keep changing and lose a lot of people along the way. If that's the price, I'll pay it. I don't give a shit if my audience is a hundred or a hundred million. It doesn't make any difference to me. I'm convinced that what sells and what I do are two completely different things. If they meet, it's coincidence. I just appreciate the freedom to put out an album like Tonight's the Night if I want to."
He's definitely F. He has strong values, and seems very emotionally intense. He even describes everything with the word "feel", although I know that isn't neccasarily a sign of feeling
Definitely I, he always says he would go reclusive and get tired of people coming to his ranch to visit him all the time, he always talks about "getting away".
"In Young's grandfather's and great-grandfather's time there were still buffalo on the plains of Manitoba; on his father's farm the sun would be blocked out by migrating Canada geese overhead. "It was awesome. But now we don't have that."
The birds, he says, "are a messenger to mankind. When you see a horror movie and the birds leave it means something very bad is coming. In nature when the birds are depleted and they leave a whole area that means something very big. It's the kind of sign that's lost on politicians. In the old days, in the days of the Indians, the Indians would be freaking out, everybody would be freaking out..."
Based on that, he seems N to me. That comes from this:
Neil Young Interview
I'm guessing P just because he never ties himself down to anything. Its always "ok, I want to do this, this feels good right now" but then after a while, the energy in that goes out and he gets into the mood of another project. He... he just doesn't tie himself to anything, he never defines himself in any specific way so that he can keep things open to how he may want to do things in the future.
So... uh... looks like my guess is INFP.
