Neil Young Approves Tim Walz’s Use of ‘Rockin’ in the Free World’ After Suing the Trump Campaign for Using It
Neil Young approved Tim Walz's use of his song ‘Rockin’ in the Free World’ after suing the Trump Campaign for using it in 2020.
Vice Presidential nominee Tim Walz received approval for the use of Neil Young ’s “Rockin’ in the Free World” during the the Democratic National Convention on Wednesday night.

The first three nights of the DNC included performances by John Legend, Jason Isbell, Patti LaBelle, Maren Morris, Common and Mickey Guyton, with a cameo by Jon B during a music-driven roll call.
