Neil Young is certainly on the side of the free world, but "Rockin'" is not exactly triumphal. All of the lyrics are at least cautionary, ranging up to brutal. A baby is abandoned in a garbage can!
i agree. the official video of the song was depressing and had zero to do with the implosion of the ussr, tearing down the berlin wall, etc. i was a big fan of neil young in the late 1970s and his rust never sleeps project

"There's one more kid that'll never go to school
Never get to fall in love, never get to be cool"
