A: No, Gandalf is not a god, young or old, but he answers to the higher powers as one of their representatives in Middle-earth.
In one scene Gandalf remembers his name (or let's say his name in the hobbit language), but that happens after he had met Merry and Pippin.
On the other hand, it may be that Gandalf is still coming back to life when he meets the two hobbits and it is only when he sees the King-to-be that he fully returns to self-knowledge.

 Gandalf MP3 Downloads - Gandalf Music Downloads - Gandalf Music Videos
Taking his name from the good-hearted wizard in J.R.R. Tolkien's trilogy Lord of the Rings, Gandalf's work often reflects his love of nature, as well as his commitment to preserving the environment (while his music has been compared to such other artists as William Ackerman, Rick Wakeman, Shadowfax, Enya, and Mike Oldfield over the years).
Over the years, Strobl has recruited several renowned musicians to guest on Gandalf's recordings (including Tracy Hitchings, Steve Hackett, Emily Burridge, and Peter Ashenbrenner), and in 1989, composed the soundtrack to the motion picture Labyrinth.
His first few albums -- 1980's Journey to an Imaginary Land, 1982's To Another Horizon, and 1983's Magic Theatre -- contained a definite prog rock edge, before adding such instruments as flutes and saxophones to the equation and heading in a more new age-ish direction.
