Neil Young Gives Free Music Access to Greenland

Rock legend Neil Young announced on his official website that he is providing free access to his complete music catalog and documentary archives to residents of Greenland, a gesture aimed at supporting the territory amid threats from U.S. President Donald Trump to annex it. The offer, revealed Tuesday, allows Greenlanders to subscribe without charge to the Neil Young Archives platform, which typically costs between $24.99 and $99.99 annually for high-definition audio and video content spanning Young's 62-year career.

In a statement posted on the site, Young expressed solidarity with the island's residents. "I hope my music and music films will ease some of the unwarranted stress and threats you are experiencing from our unpopular and hopefully temporary government," he wrote. He added, "It is my sincere wish for you to be able to enjoy all of my music in your beautiful Greenland home, in its highest quality. This is an offer of peace and love. All the music I have made during the last 62 years is yours to hear." The subscription can be renewed for free as long as users remain in Greenland, and Young encouraged other organizations to follow suit in the spirit of the initiative.
