Eddie Vedder Inducts Neil Young into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

[@seanmcaleavy2369]

Neil doesn't know this, but for the last 40 or so years, he has been riding shotgun with me. Through all the happiness and the heartache, the laughter and the tears. He has been right there the whole time. Thanks, Neil, it would have all sounded like shit without you there.

[@davidmgill]

I hear you. My old man was a massive Neil Young fan, so I was pretty heavily exposed to Neil's music, but like many kids I kinda went down my own musical path. But when dad died nearly 11 years ago, I started listening to Neil again. Really listening. And got hooked. Neil's punctuated so many lows and so many highs. Wish I could thank him for being there every time.

Neil Young top 7 all time Rock N Roller. Has over 1180 copyrighted songs and counting. Twice as many as Dylan. Networth $200,000,000. Didn't sell for commercials. Does benefit concerts for disabled children ,farmers, environmental issues etc.... Made millions of $$$$$$ for these organizations. Born To Rock .

[@JayHarveyRockNRoll]

I like Neil too, but he has sold his song catalog to an investment firm (Hipgnosis), so he has actually has signed away rights for his songs to be used in commercials, advertisements, and such. It's his property, he can certainly do what he wants with it, but it made me feel a little disheartened. They seem to all sell out eventually.

[@artvallejos1460]

@@JayHarveyRockNRoll I think Neil still has some say in the use of his songs . Also, he's getting up there in age, I'm pretty sure he wanted to take care of business before some corrupt lawyers get a hold of his fortune. Regardless, He Is Born To Rock He'll Never Be An Opera Star.

100% Perhaps it’s because he’s Canadian that he’s so humble?

[@yanivbin7521]

I mean, Neil Young is my favourite musician of all time, but he's a complicated man and far from a saint. He hurt a lot of people and he was an asshole in several occasions - he's the first to admit it. I suggest reading his biography Shakey - it gives quite an incredible full picture of this great but troubled man.

[@yanivbin7521]

Here's a nice story for you. One day after this speech, Neil would play an unplanned encore with Pearl Jam and got excited. So excited, he ditched up Crazy Horse and producer Briggs without even telling them, and flew to Seattle to record with Pearl Jam (that would be Mirror Ball). His beloved band, who he "couldn't make it without them", practiced the songs a whole day in the studio before understanding Neil won't show up. When interviewed about it, Neil said he felt it was the right choice creatively, and to quote him "you got to make calls that hurt people. There's no way around it. It's the only way to go". This whole story happened literally three days after this speech.

[@CameronStrandberg]

@@yanivbin7521 Yeah, he missed a day of work. Not the worst thing in the world.

[@666hevn]

For those of you who think he should thank his fans let me tell you that after years as a local crew person working with many different bands he is one of the few that came up to us and said "thank you for all your work" the only other two in my years have been Bruce Springsteen and Toby Keith that's it 3 in almost 10 years.

So thanks for that story, and props to Neil, Bruce, Toby, and Robin.

[@gavvino1]

I think that when somebody, an artist as amazing as Neil Young, is inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame, it's just such a huge moment for that person that it's really difficult to put everything that they're feeling into words. Some might say that Neil doesn't seem grateful, or that he can't give a good speech. But, I don't think there's such thing as a 'good speech' for something like this. The fact is, you don't even need words when you're being inducted. You just need heart. Neil has it

Young also experienced deaths through drugs, he knew the fragility of the rock and roll lifestyle.
