    R.I.P. Brett Tuggle, the keyboardist (2:20) who co-wrote this song with David Lee Roth.
    Tuggle had a long career. He played keyboard for Fleetwood Mac, toured with Steve Lukather from Toto and also played with Steppenwolf, Rick Springfield, Chris Isaak and Whitesnake.
    He was a great musician, a family man and a good friend of my parents, even played with some local bands with my father, Rene Ulibarri in their high school years. After being diagnosed with lung cancer at the start of the pandemic, he would continue playing with Lindsey Buckingham and would make the most of his time to be with his family. He passed on June 19, 2022 at age 70.
    Brett, you're living in paradise now.
    Rest In Peace, our friend.

      All true! I'm 33 and remember distinctly my first glimpse of DLR - and I was very aware what a singular guy he was. He's my #1 favorite front man and singer(believe it or not). A whole slew of posers ripe his style and vibe, but they all cheapend it.

I hope the same can be said about cancer.

    This song puts me back to my youth and what a great time I had in the 80's and early 90's. Saw David Lee Roth when he joined back up with Van Halen in the early 2000's. Most memorable concert I have ever been to this day. Thank you David for making my youth so memorable!

He was my neighbor and already a teenager but he would let me hang and was also teaching me how to skateboard. Even though he was so much older he would treat me like I wasn't a little kid. With respect. It meant alot to me. And teaching me how to skateboard helped me in my life cuz it was my passion for many years and even different periods in my life. Every time I hear this song I think of my friend and that ride with the windows down jamming to this thinking I was so grown. I was definitely in paradise lol. Those moments impact u in many ways.
