Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Ko te kī ki te roa o te ora o te toka, kāore rawa ia e tautuhi i a ia ki te kore whai pānga. Ahakoa he nui te reo, he kiri kiri kiri i te huihuinga o te Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 2015 i Cleveland i te pō o te Rāhoroi, he nui tonu te mōhio ki ngā take o te toka i roto i te wairua me te puru, he iti ake te kōrero ki tētahi tāke motuhake, engari he wairua e kore e taea te whakapuaki. He ngāwari te kōrero mō taua wairua ina kei reira a Paul McCartney ki te whakahonore i a Ringo Starr, ā, kei reira hoki a Yoko Ono. I a ia e korero ana i muri i te whakaaturanga, i kii a Ono he mea whakamiharo ki a Starr kia whakahonoretia, "he pouri noa iho kaore a John raua ko George i konei", e pa ana ki tana tane kua mate a John Lennon me te kaiwaiata a Beatles me te kaituhi waiata a George Harrison. I tino harikoa a Starr ki te noho ki reira <unk> i muri i te tatari roa, ko ia te Beatle whakamutunga i whakauruhia hei mahi takitahi. "Kua karangatia au, a he tino pai ki ahau", te kī a te kaiwaiata 74-tau te pakeke. "I ahau waimarie, a ko reira mau i roto i Cleveland", ka mea ia ki te hamama nui. E rima tekau ma tahi tau ki muri, i tae a Starr ki te taone ki te purei i taua Whare; i whakaae ia i muri i te whakaaturanga kaore ia i maumahara ki nga pirihimana e aukati ana i te whakaaturanga i te wa o "All My Loving" me te whakahoki i nga Beatles ki te ruuma kakahu mo te tekau meneti kia marino ra ano nga kaiwhaiwhai. I kii a Starr i roto i tetahi uiui i muri i te whakaaturanga kaore e taea e ia te maumahara ki te kaupapa, engari i whakaae he maha nga whakaaturanga i waenga. "Ka maumahara ahau ki tenei", i oati ia. Ko etahi atu i whakawhiwhia ki nga honore Rock Hall ko Paul Butterfield Blues Band, te mahi wairua o mua The 5 Royales, te kaiwaiata a Bill Withers, nga kaiwaiata punk Green Day, Lou Reed, Joan Jett & the Blackhearts me Stevie Ray Vaughan. He pō mō te taitamariki hei whakahonore i te kaumātua, ā, tērā pea hei whakarite mō tētahi haerenga i muri mai. I whakamoemiti a John Mayer ki tana whakapakoko o mua, ki te tupapaku a Vaughan, i roto i tētahi kōrero ātaahua. I haere mai a John Legend ki te whakahonore i a Bill Withers me te mahinga o "Whakamahia ahau" i tautokohia e Stevie Wonder, nana nei i whakauru a Withers. Katahi ka tohaina e te tokorua te "Lean on Me", tae noa ki te haerenga a Legend ka toia a Withers ki mua o te atamira ki te hono atu...
Ka whakahonore a Paul McCartney i a Ringo Starr i te huihuinga whakauru o te Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. I whakahonoretia hoki a Green Day, a Lou Reed, a Joan Jett & the Blackhearts.
