Neil Young RnR HOF Induction Part 2

[txcowpatty]

Says much about Neil that he thanked his mom first and his wife last and in between thanked some powerful and influential men. He didn't single Whitten out by name but he' was the heart of the Horse. Long may you run, Neil!

[MrTeaking25]

He didn't thank Scott Young his dad or Danny Whitten..a couple propellers on his plane

just "wonderin"

[phishman69]

Who the fuck disliked this!? GTFO....

[nneevveerrmmoorree]

Im so tired of hearing how L Cohen is the best Canadian songwriter...bah bulls--t ..Neil Young is...hell even Rush write better songs than cohen

[Renthefaceless]

@nneevveerrmmoorree agreed!

[denecedaze]

brilliant......just had the amazing experience of seeing him on his twisted road tour in nashville. what a legendary gift of an artist he is. one of the best and most emotional experiences of my life. mr young is a true class act.

[KDBiLuvthem]

He thanks Kurt Cobain!!!! If I ever become a famous anyone, (musician or anything) I will thank Kurt, actually, I thank Kurt now, allowing me to hear his music! I love Kurt and miss him so much. R.I.P. I love you for you, not for your music only, that's just a plus!!

[FuckYourComment89]

i would like to thank kurt cobain for renewing my commitments to music

thats deep man

[towser06]

He is my idol, he and Pete Townshend...Neil Young is really fantastic man..wow..

[journeythruthepast]

Sadly, David Briggs was realy ill with cancer at this ceremony and died a few months later.

[HazednBlazed1]

so cool he thanked kurt

[mortgagecommitments]

It's about time, congratulations!

[holomatrix]

Saw him live at Glastonbury a few months ago, was honoured to even be in his prescence, let alone him see him work his craft.

Am surprised he didn't thank CSN, however, it is Neil Young, and as Ron Stone always said 'the power of his own beliefs & his own conviction, that he just didn't give a f*ck'. Truely deserving the RNR HOF, well done Neil!

[kady7869]

a lot of class and dignity.

[philruddrocks]

all hail young!

[mgssol90]

I can't help but smile.

[skizombie]

Headed out to where the pavement turns to sand........

[GordonMorrice]

Where the vulture glides descending

There's an asphalt highway bending

Through libraries and museums, galaxies and stars

Down the windy halls of friendship, to the rose clipped by the bullwhip

The motel of lost companions waits with heated pool and air-conditioned bar

But me, I'm not stopping there, got my own row left to hoe

Just another line in the field of time

When the thrasher comes and I'm stuck in the sun like the dinosaurs in shrines

Then I'll know the time has come to give what's mine

[Mugsycache14567]

Thanks Gordon! And you are quoting...?

[GordonMorrice]

Neil's song, "Thrasher" which is on the album "Rust Never Sleeps" (1979). That verse sums up what Neil is all about - he walks his own path but knows that there he won't last forever and he'll surrender to the greater forces of this universe when the time comes.

[fonogramosb]

Cool cat.

[VeldigdeiligfraNorge]

god jul

[VeldigdeiligfraNorge]

god jul

[lesassassins]

I don't give a shit about the RnR Hall Of Fame, with Dave Marsh and a lot of bad music critics behind it. But good for Neil, one of my greatest idols, he deserves this and even more. Keep fuckin up. Good speech Ed Vedder.

[jleb310ce]

I tried to get tickets to his show here in Toronto ,but both shows are sold out!!

[glorifyyourname]

God bless his heart

[bronyr]

I love this man. Just love him.

[jenspetter]

Hero.

[phishman69]

This was from 1995.

[villibill]

how cuite <3

[Rockitinmypocket]

Thank YOU Neil!!!

[shane31lv]

Neil is awesome. It's really too bad that he couldn't get through or reach kurt that first week of april. He said he had a feeling kurt was in real trouble and just wanted to talk to him and lighten things up for him. Judging by his demeanor i really think he could have helped kurt when he needed it most.

[herwig666]

even cooler than the fonz !!

[Shameful420]

hey thanks for upping this neil young fuckin rules dude

[anemone77]

this is so great, i haven't seen it in a loooong time. he really gets choked up after thanking kurt cobain. god bless him.

[danlaman]

God Bless Neil Young

[fans550]

wow he deserve's the Hall of fame.thanks for the video.He is awesome.anyone know when he was inducted. Neil you rock

[SundayMorninEveryDay]

He thanked Kurt as well, such a legend.. Neil Young

[wonderfreakinwoman]

He so cool, it's rediculous...

[FoxFan100]

your spelling is ridiculous

[wonderfreakinwoman]

Oh...yes...I see that now...well, you know, history was really my thing...

[SevenShells]

He is the coolest guy on earth

[Josip633]

he didn't mention crosby stills and nash...

[PureBeef87]

Maybe because he wasn't inducted in with them as CSNY.

[jackstpaul]

I don't think he cared. He might have even had a say in the matter. Plus it wasn't CSN's decision, was it? Had he gone with them, that woulda been 3 inductions, bit too much? He's good enough to make it on his own, the other 3 could only make it together.

At that, Nash once said--correctly--that Neil was infinitely bigger than CSN put together in any form they ever had. Neil is one of the top handlful of solo acts ever. CSN? eh.
