Neil Diamond Performs 'Sweet Caroline' After Retiring

At 84, Neil Diamond still knows how to draw a crowd. The music legend recently took the stage in Denver at the 39th annual Carousel Ball to perform his 1969 classic 'Sweet Caroline' with singer-guitarist Nick Fradiani.

Diamond retired from touring in 2018 due to his diagnosis with Parkinson's disease, a brain disorder that affects movement.

'I'm still coming back for more,'

said the 84-year-old hitmaker. Before the performance, the Grammy Award winner received an Inspirational Lifetime Achievement Award for his work with the Children's Diabetes Foundation and the Barbara Davis Center for Diabetes.
