Video: You in Me “The Drifter”
Do yourself a favor and add a Neil Diamond-y shine to your Friday.
Here is an augmented YouTube description of You in Me – “The Drifter”:
When an illustrious rock star (that would be The Flaming Lips multi-instrumentalist Steven Drozd) and a golden-throated karaoke phenom (singer Alan Novey, a local filmmaker whose credits include the Oklahoma films “Sweethearts of the Prison Rodeo,” “Rainbow Around the Sun,” the Lips documentary “Fearless Freaks” and concert film “UFOs at the Zoo: The Flaming Lips Live in Oklahoma City”) are brought together by an insatiable love for Neil Diamond, the result is “You in Me.” It’s a collaboration so heartfelt, an homage so genuine, and a tribute to love in all it’s forms.
The video was shot at the restaurant Junior’s of Oklahoma City by OKC’s Delo Creative.
There’s a website listed, www.youinme.us, but it just leads back to the YouTube video. There is a tantalizing lack of information here, leaving us all wondering if there will be more sparkling Neil Diamond-esque moments to come.

Having listened to this song, I was amazed at the very real Neil Diamond sound and feel to it, I thought it was going to be a cover of a Neil Song entitled the drifter which featured on a studio album “On the way to the sky” but here I found an entirely different song with the same style that we expect from Neil and the deep emotive voice from the lead singer. Fabulous song and a great tribute to the legend that is Neil Diamond.
