Have advertising firms just been waiting decades for a chance to put a Neil Young song in a TV commercial? Has that been their white whale? Neil Young always famously refused any and all requests to license his music for advertising purposes, and he made a big point about it. Young’s 1988 song “This Note’s For You” is specifically about the whole idea of corporate-sponsored rock music: “Ain’t singin’ for Pepsi, ain’t singin’ for Coke/ I don’t sing for nobody/ Makes me look like a joke.” The song’s video — which MTV, perversely enough, awarded its Video Of The Year trophy — is a series of visual jokes about ads that use pop and rock songs. On Instagram last night, Neil Young posted a screenshot from the “This Note’s For You” video, with no caption. We have to imagine that there’s a reason for that.
