I dunno but hearing that song is pretty disturbing knowing it was about a 6yo and then reading the lyrics.
Neil says it was about his wife....
Inspiration
[edit]Diamond has provided different explanations for the song's origins. In a 2007 interview, he stated the inspiration for the song was John F. Kennedy's daughter, Caroline, who was 11 years old at the time it was released.[3][4] Diamond sang the song for her at her 50th birthday celebration in 2007.[5] On December 21, 2011, in an interview on CBS's The Early Show, Diamond said that a magazine cover photo of Caroline as a young child on a horse[6] with her parents created an image in his mind, and the rest of the song came together about five years after seeing the picture.[7] However, in 2014, Diamond said the song was about his then-wife Marcia, but he needed a three-syllable name to fit the melody.[7]

Another great episode. Loved what he did with his daughter as well. That was fantastic having 2 daughters of my own.
It’s a small deal - but when they flash to his wife’s business he stays out of the official group photos, to not distract from his wife’s moment. He’s a good man, humble and selfless leader. Rooting for you coach!!!!
