Donald Trump’s playlist includes the Guns N’ Roses ballad “November Rain,” and at least one member of the band is no Trump fan. In 2018, Axl Rose tweeted, “The WH is the current US gold standard of what can be considered disgraceful.” The rocker has also revealed that his band asked the Trump campaign to stop playing their music at rallies. Trump and his team ignored the request, prompting Rose to deem them “s***bags.”
Then there’s the haunting Sinéad O’Connor hit “Nothing Compares 2 U.” O’Connor died in 2023, but in a 2020 Hot Press interview, she made her feelings about Trump abundantly clear. “I actually do believe Donald Trump is the biblical devil, the f***er,” she said. Her estate referenced this quote when it issued a statement asking the Trump campaign to stop playing “Nothing Compares 2 U” at political events. The Rolling Stones also tried to get Trump to quit using their music and even threatened him with legal action in 2020. R.E.M. considered doing the same. “We do not condone the use of our music by this fraud and con man,” tweeted Mike Mills. On “Late Night With Seth Meyers,” frontman Michael Stipe called Trump a “bloviating, puff-adder sack of lies.”
Another Trump favorite is “Funeral For a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding” by Elton John, who declined to perform at the ex-president’s inauguration — but later joined Joe Biden at the White House for a special event.
