Neil Young Shares Environmental Activism Anthem "Who’s Gonna Stand Up"

Sometimes, Neil Young takes a political stand in his music. He wanted to impeach Bush. He made a whole album about his electric car. Over on his website, he shared a live version of a new track called “Who’s Gonna Stand Up”. In the song, he wonders who will advocate for the planet’s natural resources. Listen here.

He shared the song alongside information about the documentary Under the Influence, which is about corporations’ influence on government. The film argues that corporations have “purchased our politicians” and are “writing laws that poison our planet and dismantle our democratic process.”

Young added, “People, please go to this link and share. This is how I feel about what is going on in OUR world. You can learn here.”

Here’s a trailer for the film:
