The Tragic Reason Why You Don't Hear About Neil Diamond Anymore

There is a reason why Neil Diamond has sold over 100 million records worldwide. The songs he has written just strike a feel-good chord that you want to play over and over again when life is not treating you too well. That's why Diamond's songs are played consistently at wedding receptions and in a packed stadium. Songs like "Sweet Caroline" and "Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show" will always leave a smile on your face. But unlike his songs, Diamond's life has actually seen its fair share of tragedy and grief. It's part of the reason why we don't hear much from the prolific songwriter anymore.
