Neil Diamond is doing
his part to promote steps to prevent the spread of the coronavirus – and he
found a creative way to do it. Diamond changed the lyrics to his iconic hit Sweet
Caroline for a musical public service announcement about the virus.
As Christi Carras
wrote in The Los Angeles Times,
Perched on the hearth
of his fireplace next to his adorable pet pup, Diamond then launched into the
familiar tune on acoustic guitar.
At first, the anthem seemed to play out as
expected.
Then came the catchy
pre-chorus:
“Hands, washing
hands,” Diamond sang in support of coronavirus prevention habits. “Reaching out
/ Don’t touch me / I won’t touch you.”
Enjoy, and keep safe!
