"Urgent", from the album "4", originally released in 1981. This album also includes the tunes, "Jukebox Hero", "Night Life", and "Break It Up".

Jones, McDonald and Elliot are from Britain. Gramm, Greenwood and Gagliardi are all originally from the state of New York.

The single was released ten days after the shootings, and has been included on several CSNY and Neil Young albums since that time.
