      I have been a vh fan since I was a little kid in the early 80s...Im a huge eddie fan(obviously) ...I took my oldest son to see them on the different kind of truth tour, and we both left saying Alex was the best in concert drummer we had both ever seen....and I've seen all the great bands...Alex is so great , and as appreciated as he is, I still think he gets overlooked when the best rock drummers are discussed...Eddie cast a huge shadow, but Alex was more than game

    Hagar had an interview where he talked about this song after it came out. He compared it to guys who always want the super pretty hot girl, fancy clothes, makeup, hair, all that. He said it was like buying a crepes Suzette for dessert. Once you get past all the fancy stuff, all you've got is a bunch of pancakes. What guys should be going for is good old poundcake, simple, delicious, filling, homegrown and down home never gets old.

    " I listen but can't help to get lost into it" ... that's called innovation. This guy writing and performing was always ahead of the pack. 78' debut, no one ever heard of a guitarist like him. 82-91' in spite of the thousand guitar players trying to "one up" him, he only put out 4 albums in that timeframe and brought everyone back to reality. Eddie always stayed ahead of anything in that moment. He literally took everyone's popularity away when he dropped a new song/album. Michael Jackson was the king of pop, Madonna was was the queen of pop, Elvis was the king of his genre, the Beatles were the king of theirs ... Ed was the King of guitars and when he was on... NO ONE touched him. That's innovation.

    This song is as good as Van Hagar ever got. And this album sounds amazing - they went and hired Glyn Johns to engineer this record - Google THAT guy's resume sometime - and reunited with producer Ted Templeman. What you're hearing is Eddie premiering his newly designed signature guitar AND amplifier, Alex recording on acoustic drums for the first time in a decade, and some seriously great engineering and production.

    Right at the beginning that’s Eddie on the guitar playing it with a cordless drill you should look at the video seriously it’s crazy that’s the sound of a cordless drill running up and down the strings guitar was actually really created by Eddie Van Halen he made it the guitar himself looked that up and see he took parts from different makers of guitars he called his guitar Frankenstein
