I saw her in 2004 in Houston. She looked just like that. During the show she walked to the back of the hall and stood a few feet away from me. A whole lot of people were trying to get close and touch her. She looked at me, and we just had a moment of respect; she knew that I didn't need to grope her to appreciate her and she signalled her appreciation for that moment. We saw each other as people, not as icons or strangers.

Patti was In Stockholm, at the Nobel ceremony to sing A Hard Rain's Gonna Fall, which is 7 minutes long, to honor Bob Dylan, the Literary Laureate. When Patti messed up at the second verse she asked if she could begin again. Later she spoke to Bob Dylan's oldest son who said the whole family were very happy with her and he said that his father said, "No one messes up his lyrics any worse than he does."

I remember she was playing at a venue in Hollywood Fl years ago. She wanted to keep playing when the concert ended. She stayed on stage even after the so called music director turned off the stage lights, shut off her amplifier and turned on the house lights to get the crowd moving. I stood there and looked up at her and she looked down at me and in between grimaces, kept playing her guitar. I sensed it was painful for her because she wanted me to hear her electric guitar. I’ll always remember her tenacity. Thank you Patty for teaching me how to keep on keeping on.

Europe will NEVER have a Carson or a Conan or a Letterman or an Oprah or a Kimmel or a Jon Stewart or a Howard Stern or a Marc Maron or a Dick Cavett or a Larry Sanders or a Jimmy Fallon.... and the list could go on but I don’t wanna get carpal tunnel syndrome. Entertainment is the name of the game dude. Interrupting a celebrity isn’t a sign of disrespect. It’s a sign of moving on to the next question. An experienced interviewer knows that. If the guest isn’t a self-indulgent asshole, he should know that too. Also, it’s the host’s show, NOT the show of the person being interviewed. Nice try though. Side note, does anyone honestly think that if Europeans were still running the show, the world would be a better place? I mean, I guess so, if they’ve never read anything about the history of the civilized world.

Patti Smith is a legend, a living legend. point. And when she stops when singing a Bob Dylan's song, this is just 2 legends colliding, and melting when she continue. It's historic and not a flaw. Incredible interview where interviewers let her totally express herself. Kudos guys, you know how to interview a Living Legend!

I remember the first time I heard Patti Smith's voice. I was driving home from work and she came on the radio. I literally started to cry.

Haven’t heard Patti Smith in so long. I remember back when she was young, falling off stage on her head and the band kept playing. That has stuck in my mind all these years later.👍

I want people to notice how Patti tells a story. The white radiator and the blue coat when she first saw Fred. Those are the thoughts and words of a poetess.

"Outside of society, they're waiting for me Outside of society, that's where I wanna be"......that's been my theme song since the first time I heard it in 1977 at the age of 13 and she's been one of my musical heroes ever since......

The day after I engaged my now wife in Berkeley, we walked into Golden Gate Park and Patti was performing a free concert. The craziest part is there was no more than a few hundred people. The park was practically empty, and she was singing her heart out and reciting prayers over the people. It still remains a lifelong blessing for my family, of now which my wife and I have been given three children. I attribute a lot of the core of our foundation to Patti. May she be blessed eternally in body and spirit. Amen. I love you, Patti.
