Neil Diamond performs Sweet Caroline at 2012 Royal Variety

The 81-year-old, who wrote the beloved tune Sweet Caroline initially for his second wife Marcia Murphy played publicly for around 50-years, until the debilitating disease put too much pressure on the star to continue. However, an end of touring did not mean complete retirement from music, as back in 2021 Diamond released his album Classic Diamonds, as the star maintained that his singing was “better than ever”, despite his illness.
