Thanks for buying music locally and from independent digital services.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Is Young a talented artist who has made great music over the years? Certainly, but this is a bit much. It&rsquo;s as if he thinks his music diplomacy is going to drive a wedge between Trump and Greenland.<\/p>\n<p>In August, Young released &ldquo;Big Crime,&rdquo; a song where he complains about the president and calls him a fascist.<\/p>\n<p>It&rsquo;s all part of his effort to stay relevant. At 80, Young perceives his anti-Trump message will play well with audiences, forgetting they&rsquo;ve had that same message rammed down their throats for a decade.<\/p>\n<p>It&rsquo;s a move that makes you wonder &mdash; Who asked for this? Who is actually that enthusiastic about Neil Young?<\/p>\n<p>In 2014, U2 and Apple collaborated to put their 13th album &ldquo;Songs of Innocence&rdquo; on what <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/entertainment\/news\/remember-when-u2-gave-away-an-album-for-free-on-itunes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">US Magazine<\/a> reported was over 500 million devices across 119 countries.
