It was nice to hear Kid Rock just speak from the heart using notes as a guide rather than a stale rehearsed speech like you hear so often these days. Well done KR! 👏 Thanks for the memories RVZ and Lynyrd Skynyrd, you guys will always be a special part of my life and childhood.
This makes me cry. This is they way rock and roll should be born. Kid Rock loves Skynyrd, like him or not. He loves Skynyrd so he can't be all bad right?
I expected more. Maybe it was too big for Kid Rock and he just wanted to be humble before their legacy. Lot more to him than that, I think he didn't want it to be about him,but it fell flat for me.
Rest in peace Gary I love all you boys upstairs with all my heart keep playing it pretty in the kingdom of heaven forever and the music will live on 🦅🤟
Yes i agree, love you Kid and thanks for respecting and sharing, and taking you're time to give this speech. You're an amazing man as always. Kid will always as well be one of my favorites of all times as well. Just like Kid said that the man never had to have his lyrics written down because kid said that Sweet Home Alabama was probably the best song that he wrote in his opinion anyways. He has written so many amazing songs it's amazing, and he also has been so many good influences on some of the other artists out there as well.
Kid rock is the shit so much talent these new songs are so amazing he just keeps getting better with age I think this one is the best one and I loved the new song shack down with his Son is awesome his son looks like his father and has his father talent I'm sure his son has learned alot from kid rock I hope some day I hope to see them both in concert together now that's going a good time Rock on u sexy man
I don't get KR. I certainly share his passion for Lynyrd Skynyrd, but what has he written that carries any significance or originality?? The world doesn't need more white rappers, so not sure why he's even up here doing the induction (he's from fucking Michigan for Pete's sake!!).
The original Lynyrd Skynyrd was great. I wasn't alive for the original being born in 84 so i only get to listen to the records and the live concerts that have been uploaded on YT. Def a Talented band. Talented guitarists, bassist, and drummer..
Great tribute from the heart from someone who was obviously tremendously influenced by Skynyrd. Sadly, we've lost some more members since this video was made, but the music will live forever.
Mr. Kid Rock was the perfect man, who deserves all the recognition himself, but is the best man to be the presenter of one of the BEST Bands of all time, ALL TIME!!!!! LYNYRD SKYNYRD!!!!!! GREAT JOB "KID", AND THANK YOU LYNYRD SKYNYRD!!!!!
what is fucking rock and roll hall of fame to induct Skynyrd. You dont give Skynyrd permission to enter fucking RaRHoF, skynyrd gives you permission to induct them!
Your there! Plus I watched bob burns on documentary! Say in the cemetery! There was the sound of Leonard skynyrd! Allen Collins,wife,maybe girlfriend at time! Said”if I leave here , Tomorrow Would you still remember me! To him in a question ,while they where doing something Together. He told Ronnie! Billy Powell power piano
sry did what u said well cant let every body in but they made on the sell off there if they would be there there for got how many was out to get in u need shout up be for talking there lot more groups that should be there but for the sells hmm? pie hole
Kid Rock wrote a beautiful well thought out speech honoring a great group of people who deserved this honor He showed them true emotions and praise This is the Kid Rock nobody ever talks about 🌟🌟
@@skidlock8108 shit for brains “he wrote a well thought out….” I can remember the names of people in bands I love. Definitely if I am talking about them in honor of them. LS has a gazillion fans who could have inducted them without the superficial gloss kid provided. an example of this rich kid wanting to do this
10/20 Declared Lynyrd Skynyrd FreeBird day! 10/20/17 40 yrs Today The plane crash & My love grew from their Their Spirits Went into me! Thank God! Freebird Forever!
He spoke from the heart. Lynyrd Skynyrd was the most purely American band in history. Blue collar boys who showed no pretense, worked their butts off and blew everyone - including the Rolling Stones - off the stage. Why tragedy so befell them, only God knows the answer to that. But while we had them, we relished every note they ever played and every line they ever sung. 44 years later, we still do and I am sure that 1,044 years later folks out in the future will too. Thank you Kid Rock for giving them their due with your beautiful speech.
"if I leave here tomorrow, would you still remember me?." Alan's girlfriend asked him that. He passed it on . He had a the chord progression for a while and Ronnie pulled it all together on the couch.
I cannot get away from this music !!!!!!!!thanks sista for turnin it ON to,chris rock awesome....... I donT know if Darla Jo got the hair of the dog,one of her daddy and mines favorite , of course Neil Young,having a blast,burnin up my tablet,ROCK ON
@FOR3FOWTY You try talking about one of the best and most influential music icons of southern rock n roll, to a crowd of thousands not including the ones watching live TV, and not get a little distraught. I got teary just watching it. I can't imagine how hard it would be to give a speech about someone like Ronnie. He said it himself, "One of the hardest things to do is walk in the shadows of someone like him." :-)
Yeah I love Lynyrd Skynyrd I'm always thinking though you know the question that always sticks in my head is what we missed out on all these years because of those great people being killed in the accident and then what they missed out on over the years. it's freaking that's hard to come to terms with God bless them all and God bless all the families.but the people and the music is eternal ,yeah we still remember you dude. big time.
Everybody knew Lynyrd Skynyrd was one of the best bands of the 70s....we don't need young people telling us that. It was shocking when the plane crashed.... memories are everything.... people talking about it later means nothing to me.
Emotions still very raw after so many years..I know I too get emotional and I never knew them personally but was always proud they came out of FL where back in the 70's we all had Southern accents until the Yankee invasion..
Lynyrd Skynyrd deserved so much more than Kid Rock doing their presentation to the R & R Hall of Fame. What were they thinking? Yann Wenner from Rolling Stone magazine is the head of the induction committee; therefore, he fucked-up again, just like disrespecting Led Zeppelin years ago in his magazine. All of us that grew up listening to Skynyrd in the 70's know the impact they had on Rock-N-Roll. I loved the Rolling Stone, and I like Kid Rock, but give the boys from Skynyrd their due respect.
When you heard them live it was exactly like their albums. Ronnie insisted on that. Just loved loved loved that band. Although they continued on IMHO the band died in the plane crash
Just a couple things. I think the reason it took so long is basically johnny trying to cover. To a bunch of us it looked like a cheap way to make a play off the name. Also, Steve and allan were freaking monsters. I saw them in 73,76, and 77. After Steve joined they were a lot better, Even Ronny said,"in 2 years we'llall be in steve's shadow". As for the 3 guitar harmony, it was the allman brothers with duane allman, dickie betts, and elvin bishop. Watch the 1 min video that artie talks about steve. Excuse the typos. Caught my hand in my fly.
I think it would have been interesting if Pete Townshend would have inducted Lynyrd Skynyrd into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Townshend probably could impart more insight into their legendary status having to outperform them during the Quadrophenia tour. No small task I'm sure. Just as Mick Jagger!
They were a great band and my family and I lived in Jacksonville for many years..But what about The Allman Brothers in my opinion they were the original Southern blues rock band and Skynerd was influenced by them....
Since 1975 I wish I had a dollar for every time I heard Sweet home Alabama, To me Searching kicks my ass, if Ronnie was still on planet earth, kid Rock and van sang would be buddys🙃
Not to be an ass,, but Allen Collins was actually the one who came up with and wrote the song free bird, he asked his gf/wife that if he leaves here tomorrow would you still remember me, and That's how that song came to life 😉
His political beliefs have absolutely nothing to do with music, so why would you say 'I don't know my music.'?? Doesn't make sense. I don't mind the guy's music, but I sure as hell wouldn't buy it. Two things wrong with him: 1. Being a conservative Republican, which he sure as fuck is, ain't rock n' roll. He should have his rock n' roll credentials revoked. 2. Kid Rock is the stupidest fucking name anyone ever gave themself. Even he's admitted that! I'll give him credit for that, but that's it. If he went by his real name, I MIGHT have a little more respect for him, but doubtful. Big Skynyrd fan, and a big rock n' roll fan, in general, but Kid Rock gets no respect from me, or most people in the business, because he loves that Commie, Russian-loving, traitor President we got, who's got his ass so far up murderous dictator Vladamir Putin's ass, he could spit and give him an enema. For a so-called 'smart businessman', he sure got himself compromised by the Russians in a hurry, because not a single bank in the US would give the guy a loan because he reneged on every single loan he ever took out. He's been laundering money through offshore accounts and Russia for years! Ever wonder why he won't release his income taxes?? Obstruction of justice, collusion, and aiding and abetting a sworn foreign adversary to tamper with a US Presidential election are all Federal crimes!! Trump was a three-time Vietnam draft dodger, who claimed he had "bone spurs". My ass!! His Daddy got him that deferment. KR supports Trumpocalypse, and THAT'S why I have no respect for him, and I I ain't alone.
As bad as the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame has become, if they inducted me, I'd turn them down and forbid them to use anything related to me. And that ain't no shit.
Love kid rock , did great job introduction of them , sad all orginal members are dead now !! No orginal skynyrd members left after Gary passed !! I am die hard kid rock fan an skynyrd fan , but now skynyrd is basically a tribute band with no orginal members left
The Best of the Best musicians no Weak link all of them played Top level anyone that can play Free Bird apically back then live and sound like the record good Lord 😳👏👏👏👏👏❤️🇺🇸🤘😎👍
WAY BEYOND LATE ENTRY !!! THOSE SOUTHERN GENTS&GALS SHOULDVE BEEN INDUCTED THE DAY THE HALL OF FAME OPENED ITS DOORS FIRST DAY !!! GREATEST GUITAR ROCA ROLLERS THERES EVER BEEN & THERE'LL EVER BE !!! THE SIMPLEMAN BREEZ SET THE BIRD FREE ! & YES RONNI I STLL REMEMBER YOU ! from NORSMAN BILL.
the pain never goes awaynafter you lose someone. Just ask the loved ones of Ronnie Van Zandt, Steve Gaines and his sister, and me since i lost my teenager. And ask Johnny Van Zandt if he doesn't feel that his older brother isn't still with us
When Rock is about as dead as a gutted fish , why did it take so long to induct this iconic band? Even before the crash they were living legends. Its blasphemous and an insult. Southern rockers who dressed like Run DMC would have gotten their asses kicked, thats just how they rolled man
i have been friends with sherry wilkeson for 27 yrs and watched leons son lee grow up. there is a pic of him from the rock and roll hall of fame that he has kid rock, hank williams. arelative of another deceased and i saw that photo tagged as there is a guy in the pic that looks like the guy at 5:03 and i think its stevie van sant I Think
Lynyrd Skynyrd one of the greatest bands of all time I'm an old southern boy from Alabama and I've always loved them
I've loved them since the 70's. I'm an ole southern girl from Florence/Muscle Shoals, Alabama.
This South Carolina girl too.
Kid Rock might not be the most polished presenter, but his sentiments were heartfelt, and I believe he did the band proud, and paid a nice tribute.
kid, fuck you got class, because you remember
Pretty sure he meant every word.
It was nice to hear Kid Rock just speak from the heart using notes as a guide rather than a stale rehearsed speech like you hear so often these days. Well done KR! 👏 Thanks for the memories RVZ and Lynyrd Skynyrd, you guys will always be a special part of my life and childhood.
Ronnie Van Zant didn't need to write anything down. Once his lyrics were utter in song, they became etched in stone. Amen.
Long Live The South.
Sterling Price. Well said! 👏
Amen
If they ain't worth remembering they ain't worth writing down. Ronnie Van Zant
So true!
Greetings from a Northern guy, loving Southern Rock Music!
This makes me cry. This is they way rock and roll should be born. Kid Rock loves Skynyrd, like him or not. He loves Skynyrd so he can't be all bad right?
I love Kid Rock. He is an amazing performer and a very talented and generous man.
kid rock is a good guy
I expected more. Maybe it was too big for Kid Rock and he just wanted to be humble before their legacy. Lot more to him than that, I think he didn't want it to be about him,but it fell flat for me.
I love Kid Rock!
Rest in peace Gary I love all you boys upstairs with all my heart keep playing it pretty in the kingdom of heaven forever and the music will live on 🦅🤟
We love you Rock, thank you for showing respect where respect is due!
Yes i agree, love you Kid and thanks for respecting and sharing, and taking you're time to give this speech. You're an amazing man as always. Kid will always as well be one of my favorites of all times as well.

I'm an Alabamian and I dig Kid Rock.He is an honorary Southern boy.The cat was feeling it.I loved his presentation. Rock on,Kid !!
Yeah but anyone who marries pamela is an idiot in my opinion
God bless Dixie!

@@ex90steen78 Who cares about his partner?
I don't get KR. I certainly share his passion for Lynyrd Skynyrd, but what has he written that carries any significance or originality??
The world doesn't need more white rappers, so not sure why he's even up here doing the induction (he's from fucking Michigan for Pete's sake!!).
I'm from East LA and I love Lynard Skynard. One of my favorite bands of all time. Sweet Home Alabama a true classic.
you can't even spell their name right
Kid Rock did a great job inducting Skynyrd! Allen Collins baby RIP!
The original Lynyrd Skynyrd was great. I wasn't alive for the original being born in 84 so i only get to listen to the records and the live concerts that have been uploaded on YT. Def a Talented band. Talented guitarists, bassist, and drummer..
My family lived across the street from Ronnie and his family and jammed together, went to school together too!
Thank you Kid Rock for the very classy Introduction for the greatest band on Earth Lynyard Skynyrdl.
Great tribute from the heart from someone who was obviously tremendously influenced by Skynyrd. Sadly, we've lost some more members since this video was made, but the music will live forever.
Love you Kid Rock!! You are a simple man, just like Lynyrd Skynyrd wrote!!

Dame Rite, no respect 4 the hall of fame, and some of people who run it, Janet Jackson, please, Jonny winters, RORY Gallagher they doent deserve em
Kid Rock wrote a beautiful well thought out speech honoring a great group of people who deserved this honor He showed them true emotions and praise This is the Kid Rock nobody ever talks about 🌟🌟
he barely knew names without looking at his cheat sheet

Lynyrd Skynyrd is the greatest American rock band of all time
Well deserved. A bunch of country boys from Jax FLA.✊🏻
Lynyrd Skynyrd the BEST band ever..
Skynyrd is one of the few bands, where every song was a hit.
He spoke from the heart. Lynyrd Skynyrd was the most purely American band in history. Blue collar boys who showed no pretense, worked their butts off and blew everyone - including the Rolling Stones - off the stage. Why tragedy so befell them, only God knows the answer to that.

Thank you Kid Rock for giving them their due with your beautiful speech.
that is one hell of a speech
HE SPEAKS FROM HIS HEART..IF YOU THINK THAT IS BAD..SHAME ON YOU ..WE GOOD
I'm not gonna listen to anything by Kid Rock, but I do appreciate his passion and sincerity in this speech, and agree wholeheartedly.
"if I leave here tomorrow, would you still remember me?."
Alan's girlfriend asked him that.
He passed it on . He had a the chord progression for a while and Ronnie pulled it all together on the couch.
I cannot get away from this music !!!!!!!!thanks sista for turnin it ON to,chris rock awesome....... I donT know if Darla Jo got the hair of the dog,one of her daddy and mines favorite , of course Neil Young,having a blast,burnin up my tablet,ROCK ON
Love Gary Rossington Band Member Grave ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
"if i leave here tomorrow, would you still remember me" was actually written by Allen Collins... The rest of the lyrics were written by Ronnie.
Scott Neumann yes, you are right. His girlfriend had looked at him and said that. He ended up using it in lyrics. 🎶 🎸
Thank you for that, Scott. I never knew that.
No shit
Hahaha.... wonder what happened to that girlfriend?!?
@@tonipope3164 He married her
"If I leave here tomorrow, would you still remember me." Was from a note that Allen Collin's wife wrote to Allen.
Love Lynyrd Skynyrd Band Member
I saw Kid Rock on some show frying a turkey. He recommends pumping the turkey with 7-Up before frying. Sounds good to me!
@FOR3FOWTY You try talking about one of the best and most influential music icons of southern rock n roll, to a crowd of thousands not including the ones watching live TV, and not get a little distraught.

To be missed by so many, even to this day and beyond, tells you how great this band was and the lost will be felt for eternity.
AWESOME, speech!!! We'll done...You rocked it!!
One day baby it will be your turn and I can't wait for that day. Love Lynyrd Skynyrd.
Lynyrd Skynyrd Ronnie Van Zant the best group ever
Funny! Chris Collinsworth does an ad for this at the start. He's a former Bengals NFL wide receiver. He's from Florida, and is a huge Skynyrd fan.
I was at a bar recently and the Kid Rock summer song was on. Young girl says “wow Kid Rock even plays piano !” 🤔
WESTSIDEEEEEEE 😊 Jacksonville Florida my hometown
Yeah I love Lynyrd Skynyrd I'm always thinking though you know the question that always sticks in my head is what we missed out on all these years because of those great people being killed in the accident and then what they missed out on over the years. it's freaking that's hard to come to terms with God bless them all and God bless all the families.but the people and the music is eternal ,yeah we still remember you dude. big time.

Well said Mr.Kid Rock. I felt the emotion in your voice.

Kid rock has a lot and I mean a lot of class rock on!
"We have legacy that is hard to live up to"....Not a more true lyric has ever been sung...
Emotions still very raw after so many years..I know I too get emotional and I never knew them personally but was always proud they came out of FL where back in the 70's we all had Southern accents until the Yankee invasion..
damn , this was awesome !

You are a great musician.
actually having kid rock is not an insult..If it wasn't for skynyrd kid rock wouldn't be who he is today.
Neither would I
Who's that? A conservative Republican ass wipe? ....and take that stupid fucking hat off!
His political beliefs have absolutely nothing to do with music, so why would you say 'I don't know my music.'?? Doesn't make sense. I don't mind the guy's music, but I sure as hell wouldn't buy it. Two things wrong with him:

Skynyrd rules.
Actually, it is. It's disgraceful...he could barely put two sentences together to honor this amazing band.
LOL, I know ...Skynard HAS to be in the top 10 bands of all time, and I'd put them in the top 3 easily.
I'd put them at #1 as far as AMERICAN rock bands are concerned.
Yay! Lynyrd Skynyrd......
