I could listen to Rollins for hours and hours.

Pharrel got that look in his eye of, “Oh damn, I didn’t know this guy was THAT smart.”

I've been living in the US for almost 5 years, and this is the first time I see/hear a person that says how a person (american for him) should be in such a right way. For an immigrant this is priceless. Great to know there are "very american" people that have common sense and an amazing vision of what US should be. My respect to you Henry!!

I'm new to Rollins, but wow, what a guy he is!

One of the best interviews I've seen. I don't listen to Henry Rollins' music but I could listen to him talk about the Constitution and society for hours.

Henry Rollins 2020!...Run Henry Run!

I've been a fan of Henry Rollins for years, mostly his spoken word. Every time I hear him speak from when he was a young angry adolescent to now where he's learned to channel that anger into something productive, he blows my mind. I know this is an old interview but regardless, he continues to impress with his knowledge and thoughtfulness. Incredible!

Mr. Rollins will never read this, because Henry Rollins would never notice the comments of some youtube video. Speaking as a Marine, Henry Rollins is one of those American Heroes who deserves to be honored. Forever I will respect this man and the folks like him. American Fucking Hero.

Henry Rollins for President!

It brought me to tears when he described taking photos with the man who lost 60% of his brain function. He's doing everything right.

Legalize all of it. Put the dealers, the gangs, the cartels, and the prisons out of business. Take the money and the violence out of the game.

Henry is the fucking bomb. He is clear headed and understanding,

Rollins is my hero

I think he is a very intellectual intelligent and insightful human beign, down to earth American with all the care for his fellow Americans and all humanity his approach and insight is humble but aggressive from an equal level of no better or higher standard because of his celebrity status definitely a role model in some ways... No politician but I would like to think if Henry had the ability to play the role of president for our country for even a short period of time he would make improvements with his out looks and ideas that would surpass our previous presidents efforts by a great deal, We need more outspoken leaders like him carry the black flag Henry!

Some lifetime bought politician would shit himself if he looked over and saw mister Rollins at the other podium at a presidential debate.

The Great Henry Rollins!

I can't hit the like button hard enough for this. Henry Rollins is so articulate, so charismatic, so intelligent, so wise, so compassionate, and so damn cool. I could(and have) listen to him talk for hours and hours on end.

Henry Rollins...This interview was recorded in 2013, it's now 2020 you sir are a gentleman and a scholar. Every word spoken, a learning curve to all...if I had the power or opportunity to say to people, please listen and watch this interview....it would help so many people's lives today..... *Education* Amazing interview 👏👏👏👏👏

Well Done Pharrell~! Amazing dialogue between you two. I enjoyed this :) Likeminded Eclectic souls exchanging ideas. Pharrell asked amazing questions and this felt like a peer to peer interview. Pharrell is an intelligent and gracious host.

Thanks Pharell, the human cue card. Thanks Henry for your non stop knowledge dropping. The man. The legend

Dude! Henry Rollins is so articulate. What a great and enlightened guy.

Love this! Henry is so smart and humble. I only know him as an actor and personality but I fully respect him.

I've never been a big fan of Pharrell Williams' music but I think he's a great interviewer and a cool guy.

I'm in awe of that level of optimism for the future. I wonder if he feels similarly post-Trump. I really want to feel that way.

Henry should run for president- he will stand up for America and he is a devout American. I would vote for him and also, alot of my friends

How can we get a quality education when it is so expensive . Some countries actually offer free education to their citizens

Pharrell, you are a gifted and talented man. I am amazed at what you can do, and this 2 part interview with Henry Rollins solidified that belief. What a pleasure it was to watch you and him interact and talk about some really important stuff. Thank you for this, and I wish the both of you all the best!

14:30 & 14:50 - Awesome words, amazing attitude I deeply admire! The only way. Kudos to you Mr. Rollins!

Pharrell is like woa.. Look at the brain on this man.

Henry I love listening to you talk man. I'll never forget hearing you at the Bomb shelter. I was the fly on the wall. I was hoping to gleam some wisdom as you're in my list of people to listen to if I hear you.

I love this guy. I tried to embrace the music back when I was a young guy into punk . But what a great man

I saw Rollins at the Ranchbowl in Omaha Nebraska in the early 90's. My young friend wanted to see him but they were sold out. I talked me an 15 friends in for free. It was awesome. Thanks to Pat and the other Pat for letting us in.

What a great video, thanks Pharrell and Henry!

HOLY SHIT my 2 favorite poeple same room speaking intelligently this is heaven THANKYOU! you are both genius btw

Both of you guys very nice Job. Good question. Good Answers. Value for the soul ! Thx Greets from Switzerland

I discovered Henry Rollins around 2010/2011 by a great song that almost made me break up with my ex from that time. "Wrong man". Sometimes, I listen to it and I just crack up because I totally misunderstood it. This guy is super smart, funny, insightful and awesomely blunt and honest. Ty R.S.R for getting me into HR. Great times.

It's funny you go back to the Black Flag days watch the old videos, Henry was so hard to interview he was pissing vinegar man. Of course we're going back 30 years ago. He's certainly matured and is articulate. Very night and day.

this was more than enteraining, it was educational. been a fan of Henery Rollins since request video days.

Wow… this series is really, really great. I could listen to these two conversing for days. This is so much about being human, it's so inspiring to me.

This was great, thank you

is it just me or does Henry just look younger and younger as time goes on?

Henry is the truth and all facets of it. Mad respect for his eloquence in speaking his mind.

great conversation. Thank you very much.

I started listening to him when I was 15 still workout to him now and I'm 51

Very eloquent as always. I first started reading his columns for Spin magazine in the 80's and been a fan ever since 🤘😻

Great video! thanks

thank you for enlightening space. blessings. Education!

I so wish so much to have an opportunity to talk with Henry.

This man is honestly brilliant!

Great interview, great show, great host. Pharrell didn't play around with his questions, but pushed everything forward. Henry responded in kind. I didn't see much pandering (to either the show or to the potential audience) though I can understand why some people might think it was an issue. Nor is his age an issue. I'm 42, and I've listened to his loud mouth since Black Flag's "My War" album. He hasn't changed -- only mellowed out a bit. Keep up the good work, guys. I love the show.

21:05 "I'm no genius" *Inadvertently disproves his own statement between **0:01** to **21:04** and **21:07** to **25:18**.*

I gave up everything.... Which took me to become an alcoholic... Was SOOO angry... This speech set me right.... Enjoy life, and those who support you

Excellent interview on both sides!

I listen to Rollins while I am getting ready to go to my job at the factory & it def makes me more determined to change my dumb life.

A truly great and intelligent conversation. Henry Is a better man than he is a musician. And I got into him and even grew my now long hair from a skin cut after seeing Black Flag in the mid 80's. (You COULD be a long haired punk!) Never my favorite musician and even a nasty bully when young this guy went from being a long haired bullying punk into a short haired wise hippie on the highest level (he is a logical evolution without drugs). The irony is that it was the LSD mid 60's serious hippies (Garcia, Ken Kesey, Hendrix, Morrison, Timothy Leary, Lennon etc) who first thought as Henry and Pharrel do. But as Henry rightly points out for most drugs and alchohol are a tragedy of life suppression not a life enhancing event (my family is filled with alchoholics and many dead/crippled friends from drugs). I would argue with Henry on the details while agreeing with him on principle. He is a little too straight for my taste but not for his and he rightly does as he wants. That's the trick, he get's it. Respect and compassion for the lived experience of others is the love that Jesus spoke about. For me small quantities of weed/hash, (I mean 1-3 puffs on a little pipe the whole night not joints) when recording music and at music parties is a plus but then I don't smoke during the days or all the time. Doinfg so occasionally makes it exciting and adrenalized rather rather than confused, tired or just out of it (No fun at all). So Henry's point about different physiology is correct. I don't drink either and like Henry I just don't like it. Beer is the worst, tastes like piss! I did 10 LSD trips over a 3 year period until 1984. I was dead serious about it and had some great experiences but knew it would soon end and not be a dangerous form of a slow suicide life habit like cocaine, Crack, heroin meths, hard boozing etc. Only moderate and in self control use of weed and booze it seems can can be part of a healthy lifestyle. But for some like Henry or my friend Andreas nothing is best. Respect. But we can be sick of bad food, poor abusive relationships and addicted to social media etc etc. I am one of the few I know for whom LSD did more good than bad. Most people very wrongly do it 'for the experience' or as an exciting variation on getting wasted. NOT GOOD! The best thing was stopping. I did not need the medicine anymore, the doors of consciousness had been opened, I was cured. Henry has opened his eyes with pure will power. Will power saved me from abuse. Will power, intelligence and sensitivity; = life enhanced

Simply, Amazing!

Henry really is a force of nature. Love him and other subversive free thinking artists like RATM, Public Enemy, Immortal Tech, Ho9909, Idles, Bob Vylan, Allflaws

What a great interview: on both sides.

I can't fathom the degree of suffering so many go through!

some wonderful thoughts ive not heard better ever

The guy speaks from the heart, regaurdless of ones political view theres always one constant, if you dont listen, you dont hear anything. you can learn something about yourself, or life in general from anyone, choosing not to is ignorance defined. I do agree with his moral compass, logic is all that matters, take out political bullshit, outdated labels that only describe the labeler, yeah, thats where shit can make sense

Henry Rollins for President!!!!

i always tell my wife that we are all just waiting for the powers that be to die before real change happens. i love it that henry had the balls to say this publicly although in a much nicer way.

good work

"must have been something in the water" lol, that made me think about Fluoride.

This man is my biggest role model and inspiration.

As impressive as Henry is, I'm very impressed with Pharrell Williams as an interviewer.

The stuff about soldiers is hard to hear.

Hennry Rollins in an amazing man. I agree with his views on educations!

Pharrell never ages

Ordered two of his books :)

Rollins describes laws. Laws are often broken. Jim Crow south is a perfect example. I'm sure Henry would agree with me, however; 'What is to be done' ? ...... Well, Mr. Rollins is doing this. He is educating. I couldn't agree with him more.

In England we have John Lydon whom just reminds us how proud to be North London Working Class & Arsenal FC he is . In spite of living in LA for decades

Get In The Van written by this man is a must read book.

I feel exactly the same.

I met Henry Rollins 30 years ago at a show in Ohio while in college. What a perspective on my impressions of him from then (Absolutely crazy) to this (Very Aware).

I came as a fan of henry Rollins, but left with a love for pharrel wiliams

Totally agree. Finland are going in the right direction on this, the rest of the world should follow their lead. It's going from bad to worse here in the UK, becoming more and more focused on figures and league tables that are of no help to pupils or teachers. They only serve to promote a learn by rote culture, pupils memorising what they need to pass exams but learning very little.

‘Just talking about my generation’ 🎶🎵

So true...

I saw Henry Rollins and Chuck D. on the same stage and it made me think

Love Henry

I think he should run for president. We need a leader who can inspire and implement these changes.

Henry is awesome. he understands that what he does isn't about him it is about the people in this world who need something. I wish religion was as functional as this. No BS forced beliefs just pure reality.

Henry Rollins outclassed Pharrell Williams

8:00 - A very profound statement.

Henry Rollins for President

i love henry he is the truth

Henry Rules

Wish I could have seen this when it was released

Love his dad.

this man loves ALL people we cant possibly do better for a president

If it meant no more ads, absolutely. In a perfect world...

If you're Changing an adults daiper (in my case Dad) you should be proud of yourself, your a hero.

philosopher. that is what i would call him.

Henry Rollins for president

He does know his history

Maybe it is "Obsessive Anticipation Disorder" (The term, that came to my mind, just now). It isn´t a "thing" yet, but it maybe a term, that fits the behaviour ?!

quaint as hell, the optimism of 2013

Much preferred this part, Pharrell is far more engaged in this one than the other
