Missy Higgins Not Taking Neil Young’s “Fork In The Road” Path

After converting his ’59 Lincoln continental into an electric car, Neil Young was so excited to share the green love, he created an album inspired by it, Fork in the Road.
But not everyone was excited to hear “Cough Up The Buck” and “Fuel Line,” as one commenter on a website examining the lyrics to one of his songs said, “No one wants him to retire, but we really need to quit pretending that the lyrics don’t suck.”
Vegan singer and songwriter Missy Higgins recognizes how spreading the seemingly enthusiastic eco friendly love isn’t for every musical artist, so she stays away from it.
“I’ve tried, but I can’t figure out a way to do it without sounding cliché. Some people protest through their music, and some have to do it through other means. Midnight Oil does it pretty well [through their music]. They’re big environmentalists.”
