To my knowledge Neil did not sing (record) this song. One of the knocks against the group America is that they were trying to copy Neil and his sound, this being the era that Neil was really hot having recorded with Buffalo Springfield, CSNY and as a solo artist all within the space of a few years. I didn't think of it at the time, but having heard the criticism I listened to America differently. If they weren't trying to copy him they were certainly heavily influenced by him. I believe the song "Sandman" (I Understand You've been runnin' from a man who goes by the name of the Sandman) to be the most graphic illustration of this.

Imagine trying to copy Neil.
