For all the people taking shots, they were cracking jokes to calm themselves down, as they're MASSIVE fans, and the rest of the speech showed heaps of respect. Freddie probably would've laughed his arse off at Taylor Hawkins' ironic Hot Space quip.

Hands down Freddie Mercury was the best rock singer ever and the versatility of Queen's music will probably never be matched.

Hannah Aldrich Taylor was but Dave has been clean since he was 19
Taylor blinked like 5 times during this clip, dude was deffinitely on something 😂
what was taylor tripping on???? I know people are giving this shit for dave and taylor for making jokes, but bear in mind Freddie would've absolutely loved it, that's exactly the sort of character he is.
All comments: Dave looks weird without a beard. Taylor didn't blink and was high.
For anyone who thinks that Grohl and Hawkings didn’t care that much about Queen, kep the fact that they were both sarcastic when they said “And of course, Hot Space”, i think it was meant for a giggle. And the reason why it looked like they didn’t want to induct Queen is because, Hawkings is a big fan of Queen, and he could have been crying by just inducting his favorite band to the R&R Hall Of Fame
David Grohl -- chewing his gum and sticking it on his front teeth like we all did as a child. 😂 I love the guy.
Dave, I think you over exaggerated a little. Freddie comparable to the pope! I mean the pope is great and all that and I have nothing against him, but he's no Freddie.

a band where each member is a bona fide top songwriter in addition to being fantastic at their chosen instruments will likely never be matched; then throw in their ability to put on the greatest live shows... one of a kind!
Always one of my favorite videos, had to revisit after Taylor’s death :( Rest In Peace
It's always weird seeing Dave without the long hair and beard
Deacon wrote You're my Best Friend and I Want to Break Free, also.May wrote Tie Your Mother Down and Hammer to Fall. Taylor wrote Radio Gaga

Just imagine... The thought of one day deciding to make music in a band, not knowing if anyone would listen or if anyone would care, and then proceed to become the biggest band ever known to mankind, popular to people of all ages and all musical tastes, and imagine Freddie... Growing up never ever would have suspected he would be the most legendary and irreplaceable vocalist of all time, Queens legacy will forever live on and for generations they will be known as the legends of rock n roll
Dave taking care of Taylor here warms my heart. Dave wasn't high (he quit drugs when he was 19/20), but you could tell here he kept Taylor from going too off the rails that night. Love their relationship.

Just remember that 109 billion people have lived and died. But bands like Queen and the Beatles overshadow them all.

Forget the singles, the true essence of Queen lies in the album tracks
Queen have no limits, they can nail absolutely every genre of music and make it sound out of this world. These guys are pure geniuses and real virtuoso musicians and are walking on higher ground. GODS really. Can you believe this is the same band that came up with Crazy Little Thing Called Love? Backchat? Another Bites the Dust? Bring back that Leeroy Brown? Holy F$&$& no other band in history has been able to do that and none will be able to either. They are greatest band of all time! Period!

Here, in May 2024, because this is a classic. But I think the part about Queen having four hit songwriters in one group goes over so many peoples heads 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Loved it!
Break my heart ❤ every time i love queen 😊
Yes, they may have been high or drunk... hell even both. But, they were just (most likely) extremely nervous to be inducting there favorite band of all time into the rock & roll hall of fame... wouldn't you be?

I am amazed that this quintessential moment in Rock 'N' Roll history is overshadowed with comments about the presenters. For those of you alive in the 70s, we know how Queen shaped the way for may artists today, as did The Beatles & The Doors. For those who did not have the privilege, Focus upon the video and let the comments that you may not agree with go by the wayside.

So you're that lucky person who has not seen him with that horrible former band of his.
They deserved a better opening.
In August 2000 he collapsed and nearly died after taking an overdose of drugs, which ironically turned out to be prescription painkillers (Vicodin?). He was 29 at the time. He seems to have a tremendous will power. That he's still with FF for almost 20 years, is more than what some people can achieve under ordinary circumstances. After doing a few hundred shows (in about 16 mths) with A.Morisette - he wanted to be a member of a Rock Band - & Dave Grohl was already pretty wealthy after Nirvana "died" - so these were extraordinary times for all these young people involved (see Back & Forth Rockumentary) - Imo, FF have, & are, writing Rock music/songs with strong melodies - They are in a league of their own.

To the people bitching that these guys weren’t being serious enough, realize this is a celebration of Queen. Not a fucking funeral
I watch/listen to this with heartfelt angst. I guess because I'm used to audiences falling apart with adulation when the subject is QUEEN. Sadly, it doesn't happen here but perhaps it's because, their absence makes us seriously-loving Queen fans overcome mournful thoughts - (yelling and screaming adoration is hard to simultaneously effect). Tears here as I write this in 2024. Happily, these two lead in a wonderful recap of the work and fabulous music Queen gave us - still enjoy. I can't envision Freddie Mercury resting but I pray with gratitude that God gave him to us and Freddie and his contributions to our good experiences thru entertainment continue for many centuries.EDIT-4-12-24 ...revisiting and the afore-referenced 'quiet' now positively moves me. Today, it's clearly a caring, reflective quiet, still mourning, never forgotten - loved, Queen.
