Neil Young's latest video stars Al Gore & "An Inconvenient Truth"

New Neil Young Video "After The Garden" Visits "An Inconvenient Truth"

BURBANK, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- July 21, 2006 -- Neil Young's controversial album "Living With War" has become a hot-button item since its release in early May. Critically acclaimed as a milestone in confronting the most pressing issues of our times, Young has now made a unique video for the album's first song, "After The Garden."

It only made sense that Young would look to Al Gore's arresting documentary "An Inconvenient Truth" to help tell the song's story. "Al Gore's courageous film will be a lasting document," Young says, "a proof as years go by that Mr. Gore was right from the start, and willing to go on record. From his direct opposition to the war in Iraq to recognizing and confronting global warming, Mr. Gore has shown himself to be a visionary, standing out among his contemporaries."

Do you think he will run?

In the forum, someone said Al was on Conan

8. It's good. I wish they'd have left it about global warming though
mixing the war in at the end takes away from the message.
