This is one of the best induction speeches ever, you can see the kind of chemistry these two have shared over the course of their professional and personal careers!!

[@johnjjohningtoniii2439]

Bono is very eloquent. I can not imagine this going better with another musician.

[@DontGoToHell]

White people can never disprove they are “racist”, our very existence is seen as a form of “racism” by the so-called “anti-racists”. They say all things White must become “diverse” or it is “racism”. They say there should be no White countries, no White communities, no White schools, no White sports, no White social gatherings, etc. The anti-Whites give us Whites two choices: AcceptWhite geNOcide or you are a “racist”. Anti-racist is a code word for anti-White.

@@johnjjohningtoniii2439 And Bruce's speech inducting U2 was equally excellent.

[@cathyhardy6563]

Both artists have Irish Roots-Bono in Kilkenny and Bruce's dad's family hails from Co. Cork.

[@SKnight1968]

Way to finish a speech, Mr. Springsteen is not just "The Boss" but he's "The Owner". That said it all right there, nuff said!

[@TNbear0126]

I love this. Bono sometimes takes some grief and flak, but the man is articulate and passionate, and knows how to string together uplifting, thoughtful words, with the best of them. Of course he’s gonna induct Bruce. 😊

[@doolally1478]

I think a couple of the other rock stars are jealous ? They have long faces.

[@schroederscurrentevents3844]

As Bruce said himself once, “always have an Irishman give your introduction.”

[@RequiemVaccaro]

He certainly knows how to give a speech.

[@hanson2205]

This man could be a President of any Country for many years

[@jabello]

Happy 71st Birthday Bruce!

[@pugtales]

What can you say? Beautiful, is Bono after all

[@marybethwitecki5747]

Just so eloquent

[@lazerlazer]

Great speech!

[@doolally1478]

I love hearing his laugh Too cool

[@Adam-oy4ix]

As good as the speech that Bruce gave in return for U2....

[@ericsilberstein667]

Bono and U2 great alt artists/band.

[@rafipeled1920]

I wish i could talk like this when I'm stoned...

[@artlover1477]

Yeah, I have one massive vowel movement.

[@artlover1477]

F all u Bono haters. When he sang those "Sandy" lyrics it was beautiful, I got emotional. I think he and Bruce have mutual respect for one another....that's good enough for me.

[@jamesdavison2927]

Amen

[@pugtales]

I don't and can't understand, how can anyone hate Bono?? Wtf

[@craigmoola7108]

[@jgray1711]

This speech was about Springsteen. 😂 😊

[@MannBrothersFilms]

The Boss

[@jackdenmark6116]

Happy 71st Birthday Bruce!

[@MannBrothersFilms]

@@jackdenmark6116 His Birthday was over 2 months ago.

[@kevinmcsweeney4156]

Yeah!!!!

[@saraswatisky3119]

Bonos daddy was home when he wrote this speech.

[@luisoviedo8629]

El JEFE..!

[@francocolinzeferino]

¡BOSS!

[@depmodealex]

Bono was drunk af right here lol

[@benzykaram]

He just had his required Irish dosage.

[@anniejewkes5506]

Wouldn’t you be, too? He was celebrating The Boss…and celebrating WITH him, as well. 😀

[@ruman962]

Wetting lips means coke son.

[@47imagine]

Bono looks so much younger without those damn shades. I know he wears them for health reasons, but idk ...

[@jamesdavison2927]

IT ALSO HAS TO DO WITH THE HORRIBLE CHOICE OF GLASSES LATELY (Sorry- pisses me off)

[@buckleygeneration]

@@DontGoToHell Wtf are you talking about and what does this have to do with this video or these comments? Log off, go upstairs and help your mother with the dishes.

[@goldenhourkodak]

@@jamesdavison2927 You really want him to go back to dated wrap arounds?

[@SXI96]

He was like 39 here, he was still young

[@peytonmcpherson2328]

Where was this Bono at the Popmart tour he looked so different when he cut his hair so short In Popmart and grew it back

[@steveconn]

Where the Guiness has no name...

[@Hamptonio]

5:05 Byrne is asking himself…well… “How did I get here???”

[@robertwhite3752]

Everything is everything, but your missing!!

[@kevinmcsweeney4156]

Good night it’s all right Janieeee.! I’m goona meet you tomorrow Night tonight Janieee!

[@wienerlips4240]

1999? Seems kind of late for him to be inducted then

[@VSchneidermann]

No, the requirement is a 25 year-long career and his first record is from 1973, so it couldn't be much sooner.

[@ChadMichaelSimon]

5:04 be like “not impressed, too cool.”

[@jonathanbirch2022]

That speech could have been half as long

[@christianprice4249]

David Byrne wasn't buying it!

[@d1p70]

Someone had to say it! I picked that immediately. But there is a time for irreverence, and a time for passion. To everything, turn...

[@seethelight1417.]

BONO is a TOOL!!!

[@Aleakwe]

🩵

[@zackzallie8735]

**Robin Williams inducts Springsteen lol

[@Azabaxe80]

David Byrne doesn't look amused.

[@FanYarnla]

Future reference: "how to BE in the business; not of it"

[@Bodlasona]

Here It seems like Bono talking about Springsteen like he is Chuck Norris or something.

[@edbredin6406]

Great stuff but that fella from from Talking Heads looks as bored 😴

[@mjbl1787]

lmao you can see david byrne and lou reed looking annoyed

[@sanjamatsuri]

Today Bono lost his accent...pity...

[@bartobruintjes7056]

The name Springsteen has nothing to do with Jewish. It's a Dutch name, and Bruce has Dutch roots.

[@bridgetharris698]

“Steen” as in “Stein” calm down, how you missed that is beyond me

[@bartobruintjes7056]

@@bridgetharris698 Steen is a Dutch word, and not the German word Stein. So you calm down okay.

[@luisoviedo8629]

No al politiqueros de BONO..!

[@p.i9119]

Zittito da Roger Waters

[@robinbanks7211]

another cult member 😂

[@dondamon4669]

The speech sounds good but nothing he is saying is true?? 😂! You can’t just say things that sound good but completely false? Is he a politician? I’m sure Bowie, Faces,Zeppelin,Sabbath, T. rex ,the whole glam thing,etc would disagree that there was nothing going on in the seventies.

[@shiftylad9938]

He was saying that it was about him living in Dublin and what resonated with him. Ireland was rotten back then. Almost a third world country, but Bono got Bruce Springsteen. Hope you are well in 23

[@artlover1477]

You pointed out some great bands and artists from that era. I am in Bono's age range and also kinda felt it was arena rock wasteland during the mid 70s. Bruce was a breath of fresh air and then punk came. I was liberated.

[@JamesSmith-qs4hx]

WEF puppet of z0g

[@redskywalker3374]

Is this about Bono or Bruce ... egotistic maniacs ..the movie & the music world is mad ..mad I say mad

[@mikentosh]

Paul had some strange facial expressions…he was high on something…
