Further support for the proposition that You Can't Prove Anything By (the example of) Neil Young :
During the production of his (unwatchable mess of a) movie, Human Highway, he was jamming with Devo (which is at least as bizarre as it sounds) on a version of his song Hey Hey My My, when one of the Mothersbaugh boys dropped in the phrase "rust never sleeps", from a Rustoleum paint advertising campaign he'd been doing artwork for. Neil liked it so well that, not only did he perform the song with that phrase in it thenceforward (although it's missing from the album version, which had already been released), but he also made the phrase the title of his next album.
