Sorry, James! "CSN&Y" is the late 60's rock band Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young. Sometimes they performed without Neil Young as just "CS&N". Had to look it up, but turns out CSN&Y only had one top 40 hit in the UK, "Marrakesh Express". If you do a web search, "Marrakesh Express" is a nice introduction to CSN&Y style harmonies. That song was written by CSN&Y band member Graham Nash, a Brit. Graham had earlier success in the UK as a co-founder of The Hollies. The Hollies' "Bus Stop" is one of my favorite songs ever.

The lyrics are indeed enigmatic and maybe ambiguous. On one level it is the literal story of a cross-cultural television interview gone sideways. On another, it is perhaps a broader parable about the struggle to be clearly understood.

Thanks for the listen. Glad you enjoyed it despite the mysteries!

Too many guitars (is that a thing?)
