There’s no doubt that anybody’s who ever stood up here to accept this award, nobody has put themselves behind the eight ball more than I did.

I’d also like to thank everybody who’s been with the Van Halen family through all the years and have endured and and toured and partied and worked and partied. . . It was a lot of hard work at times, but the partying kind of outweighed that once we took it out and brought it out to the people.

Smith is inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame during the 22nd induction ceremony.
Today I will join R.E.M., the Ronettes, Van Halen and Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. On the eve of this event I asked myself many questions. Should an artist working within the revolutionary landscape of rock accept laurels from an institution? Should laurels be offered? Am I a worthy recipient?

We as a band continually look forward, so it’s really fantastic that someone, especially the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, are looking backward to recognize the work we’ve done. I’m just really honored that they thought of us.

This is bigger than me. This induction is total acceptance from one of the most prestigious music associations in the world . . . It’s a wonderful feeling to be remembered the architects that pioneered an idea that the whole world fell in love with. It is called hip hop.

It’s a dream come true. Ronnie, Allen and I always had this dream, to make it big in a band and go all the way, so I guess this does it. I think everything comes in its time, and this was just the time for it.

I think they’re happy. I’ve had platinum discs, I’ve had Grammys, so I suppose they’re kind of spoiled to the fact that daddy goes out one day and he comes back with another award. I’m not saying that to be bigheaded; it’s just that they’re all into their own thing. When I was their age, if my dad did anything, I didn’t want to f-cking know

Blondie put it this way once: ‘Dreaming is free.’ For many of us, myself included, Blondie were the dream . . . It’s no doubt that they enjoy this particular honor as a result of their fearless and freewheeling approach to making music.

Next to the Sex Pistols, rock and roll and that hall of fame is a p*** stain. If you voted for us, hope you noted your reasons. You’re anonymous as judges, but you’re still music industry people. We’re not coming. You’re not paying attention.

In the end, the people who really got me here tonight and who I must thank for everything I have, are Ali, Ann, Morleigh, Suzie, Larry, Edge and Bono. And I’d really like to thank Bruce for what he said, and I fortunately can remember the names of everybody in the band as well.
