I feel privilaged to have been born in 66...saw van halen in 78 debut album and followed them through Sammy's years and then back to Roth.... R.I.P eddie....you were a guitar /creativity master
Born in January 1960. Still have the original Warner Brothers debut vinyl album. 18 and half years old listening to Running with the Devil on my 1978 JVC stereo purchased for $765 at volume 9 out of 10 with my friends. Wish I could go back in time! Could have bought a used black 1969 Mustang with a 302 V8 for $650 but chose music instead!
Vintage video just emerged of Eddie noodling on this riff in the mid-80s, almost 10 years prior to the song’s release. Man, I hope some of that studio material sees the light of day. I don’t care if It’s just Eddie brainstorming, incomplete demos, or whatever, I’ll still listen!
@@joebartlett3255 Wolfie has it all, but some of the music on those tapes belongs to Sammy Hagar and DLR. So it may be awhile for any release, due to those legal issues.
Also there are still 4 other band members alive 5 with Wolfgang. The good thing is they are all on talking terms so any release will be done right.VH4LIFE
@@joebartlett3255 I wish Wolfgang will hurry up and finish his debut. I heard one song 2 years ago, it was killer, reminded me of Alter Bridge. Apparently, he plays all parts, guitar, drums, bass, and vocals. Lucky for us, he got all the EVH musical genes.
Eddie geboren in Slotermeer Amsterdam W. Ik groeide op ook in Slotermeer, kwam naar California in de zelfde jaar als Eddie . Rest in Peace Indo brother 🙏
Only cause like Robert Plant's deal with the devil and so many others did Eddie do the same. Wait till they call for his first born as promosed for this fame.. Way better naturally talented players. Don't get me wrong I'm a fan of the band but not buying Eddie didn't make a blood sacrifice with the devil.
@@dabzprincess92 Lolwut? Eddie’s father was a musician and he was playing music since he was four years old, winning multiple piano competitions as a child. He started playing guitar at 12 with his brother on drums, practicing for hours daily for years on end along with hours upon hours of gigging in bars.
That's a good way of looking at it but in the end I prefer Dave. The only other original 4 that rocked me like VH in the 80's was the original 70'S KISS.
It's me Hey. Many people use the phrase RIP (Rest in Peace), when speaking of someone who has passed away. But the Bible tells us that those who do not know Christ has no peace. Rather, he has the wrath of God abiding on him.

Another totally cool song! The drums, so typically Van Halen, the riffs, the vocals, the production and mix....wow I loved those first three albums with Sammy.
Because most classic rock fans want to (understandably) hear the Dave-era. The only Sammy stuff that gets played with any regularity happens to be, for the most part, the big hits. The Sammy era just hasn't aged well.
I will say, however, that you're right about some of this song's quality. The guitar riff is killer...and this is one of Ed's most exciting solos during the Sam-era. It's great how he solos over the new riff during the solo section and then starts doubling the riff alongside the bass. Very heavy.
@@user-xc3vl9in8v WHAT is there to say? Objective reply about why something hasn't aged well? The Dave-era stuff still sounds great... Since it's hard to be objective about something not aging well, I'll put the following to you. I play a lot of music to my students who range from 10-14. I'm not saying this is THE answer. I'm saying this is AN answer. When I play them something like AC/DC, they love it...something that old speaks to them. Either singer (though I really prefer the Bon stuff, but I think young people actually like the Brian Johnson stuff). EVERY single year, EVERY single time I've played them Dave-era Van Halen, they always say, "This is awesome. This makes me want to listen to more old music." And EVERY single time I play them something from the Sam-era, they ALWAYS have the same reaction: "This sounds stupid." "I don't like this guy's voice." "These words are really stupid." It's always the same story. When I talk to people my age (and I'm actually much younger than the average Dave-era fan), they will always say something like, "I go rid of BALANCE years ago" or "I didn't even put OU812 on my iTunes" or "I don't bother putting any Sam-era stuff on when I listen to Spotify." Or I hear, "Those albums, I used to listen to them in the 80s and 90s, but I don't like them anymore." I'm not saying this is across the board. I'm just saying that those Sam-era albums are not talked about anymore very much...certainly nothing like the Dave-era albums.
@@user-xc3vl9in8v You want to get all angry and say "Stupid statement" to me and all that, knock yourself out. I really don't care. If you're still pining for the Sammy Hagar days of Van Halen, all power to you. I don't hate everything on those albums. There are some good songs. But for reasons beyond objective understanding, a lot of people don't listen to those records anymore. It's just the way it is. For probably too many reasons, those albums aren't timeless. Honestly, one reason I don't think those albums have aged as well (besides the obvious singer-preference a lot of people have) is that Van Halen started to actually sound a lot more like other bands with those four Sammy-era albums. No one would confuse Van Halen with Def Leppard during the original era. But during the later years, it wasn't so clear cut, was it? Have a nice day.
Man What I would not give to go back to '95. Great times and great fun. Hard to believe its been 22 years. The great and fun days are gone. nothing but struggle and paying the man now. Would give all to exit and go back.
Sammy always has a good time. Hell Sammy was pushed to the the absolute boiling point during this period and still didn't want to leave the band and managed to have a mostly good time yet. Sammy just enjoys life and it takes a lot to bum him out lol
Eddies famous drop D tuning is really evident in Amsterdam, creating a That monstrous eerie chunk,a ch a chunk chunka riff. Love it, thanks Eddie for those wonderful songs, riffs and noodles
This is pretty bad ass. I saw a video today of Sammy being asked in 2009 if he missed his relationship with Eddie, he said if they saw each other then that they would have come to blows, I was surprised hearing that. He said they hit a real major bump in the road, in the end I'm glad they had the chance to talk, most of us didn't know that.
They WHAt?! You've got to be kidding! I was living in Europe when this album came out. I had NO idea this video was banned on MTV! It would make an excellent tourism video though. It really represents Amsterdam well.

Seen Van Halen at the US Festival in 1983. Been hooked ever since. Never heard a guitar with such Clean, Crisp, Amazing Tones in those days. What song do you think Greatly exhibits his multiple Rhythm to Lead transition mastering? I listened and thought.. then realized.. all of them lol. I think "Amsterdam" does a good job of it. Eddie, I miss so much.. Your Stage Rresence, Harmonic voice and "Patented Flying Jump Kicks." Your musical talent speaks for itself. ⚡🎸
Heyyyy, what a great song and at 3 52 there's Holland, - and Amsterdams most famous Tattoo Artist, Mr Henk Schiffmacher!! He decorated some of the Chilli Peppers and many other big artists too! Cool Wolfgang tat, Eddie.... RIP Maestro...
+Guitar Whores i agree i bought that CD when it 1st came out and yea the tone from eddie's guitar to me sounded alot better, was getting there on the previous album either way they have always been gr8 to me
When I think of Amsterdam, I think of legalized drugs ,Red Llight District,and Eddie Van Halen. I've been to Amsterdam so many times, I also seen the late great Eddie Van Halen perform so many times. Thank you Eddie Van Halen for giving the world a lifetime of great music.
I know back in the day after he fired Sammy, Eddie used to say he didn't like the lyrics to this song. But I don't see anything wrong with them at all. It's fun song, about a fun place. This video makes the lyrics make perfect sense.
2 things: 1, Notice Eddie getting that Wolfgang tat? In case you don't know this was filmed shortly after his son Wolfgang Van Halen was born. :( Nice to see he didn't neglect his home life as so many rock stars do. 2. I wanna go to Amsterdam now ;)
All I listened to in high school, I’m a blues player now but still have to listen to some Van Halen !!! I like every album no matter who’s singing, mainly because I love Eddie’s playing!!
Wow... a visual documentary of the end of Van Halen. Things were never right again. No matter if you are Sam or Dave fan the public productivity went to zero, or nearly zero for the remaining 25yrs. So sad, powerhouse to outhouse.

This is fun between biggest friends 11 of 10 thanks also Sammy for kept the band together awesome thanks for your life work EVH Amen
2020 and this song is better than ever
the first time I've ever listened to this gem, thank you for sharing.
I love this song, I think about it when I travel to work through Amsterdam Centraal
Van Halen was the soundtrack of my life growing up as a teenager in Hawaii🤙🏽
Severely underrated track on Balance..became my favorite the first time I heard it..just a fun, no frills track with Eddie shredding it and then some.
Best Van Halen song...
... said no one ever.
Yeah yeah yeah this is dogshit
Amsterdam was so awesome Sammy had to write a song. I'm with you Sammy. I've been there. Wow!
I'm guessing naughty is the prostitute and weed .
Best video ever.
I will never understand why this album didnt get the attention it deserves.. this song was written DURING the 5150 album..
Alternative and Grunge had taken over in the early 90s.
KILLER ALBUM....K I L L E R
NO QUESTION 💯🎸🔥
One of my favourite songs with Sammy
Eddie, his smile and laughter will be missed more than anything,
one of their best.
Great Song i love Amsterdam

Sam's scream @4:57 is the best!
Heyyyy, what a great song and at 3 52 there's Holland, - and Amsterdams most famous Tattoo Artist, Mr Henk Schiffmacher!! He decorated some of the Chilli Peppers and many other big artists too! Cool Wolfgang tat, Eddie.... RIP Maestro...
Van Hagar is my favorite VH lineup!
Killer guitarism, dont forget. Hard to remember in That city...
fuck I a hard TIME REMEMBERING WHERE MY hotel WAS, LOL
I have yet to visit this amazing city... if she can't... nothing else can
Wow.. Very good producing, the sound on this song is so full. Nice! Oh, and Eddie's smile is so cute..
Even by 1995 standards, this video is not "naughty". Awesome album BTW. Probably my favorite Sammy era album. Eddies tone was huge on that album.
+Guitar Whores i agree i bought that CD when it 1st came out and yea the tone from eddie's guitar to me sounded alot better, was getting there on the previous album either way they have always been gr8 to me
+Guitar Whores Mine too =)
I think Mike said something about that time about how anything goes in rap videos but VH got their video banned.
Guitar Whores AGREED . Larger than life . My go to album
Guitar Whores absolutely...I’m affraid He recorded album totally sober according To Sammy’s interview I have here...
When I think of Amsterdam, I think of legalized drugs ,Red Llight District,and Eddie Van Halen. I've been to Amsterdam so many times, I also seen the late great Eddie Van Halen perform so many times. Thank you Eddie Van Halen for giving the world a lifetime of great music.
The greatest lineup of the greatest Rock and Roll band, ever!!
Yeahhhhhhh!!!!!
Nah
@@dekuscrubs9853 what does nah mean?
Its not even this bands best lineup
@@dekuscrubs9853 mmmmmm
I know back in the day after he fired Sammy, Eddie used to say he didn't like the lyrics to this song.
But I don't see anything wrong with them at all. It's fun song, about a fun place. This video makes the lyrics make perfect sense.
Freakin Awsome Music! Best tone ever!
This song rocks! Love this line up! VH baby forever! RIP Eddie. 🙏
2 things:
1, Notice Eddie getting that Wolfgang tat? In case you don't know this was filmed shortly after his son Wolfgang Van Halen was born. :( Nice to see he didn't neglect his home life as so many rock stars do.
2. I wanna go to Amsterdam now ;)
Amsterdam was Home once to Ed and Alex too.... They were born in Amsterdam
I forgot how kick as$ this song is! I hadn't heard it in 10 years!! Heard it on xm radio the other day...
This entire cd is awesome!!!
Djiezz, wat een kneitergoed nummer is dit eigenlijk! Heb deze Van Halen periode beetje overgeslagen... RIP Eddie
This is a deceptively complicated piece of music...but, pulled off with such ease. Still Living!
Great point! Eddie’s life’s work is so vast and extraordinary that it’s easy to overlook a low-lying gem like this one
Personal favorite and yes. Difficulty of this song is crazy. Vintage Eddie
@@scottgroover5079 Thanks Scott!
The way only Eddie can pull off. The man was a genius like Tesla combined with Michaelangelo.
All I listened to in high school, I’m a blues player now but still have to listen to some Van Halen !!! I like every album no matter who’s singing, mainly because I love Eddie’s playing!!
Wow... a visual documentary of the end of Van Halen. Things were never right again. No matter if you are Sam or Dave fan the public productivity went to zero, or nearly zero for the remaining 25yrs. So sad, powerhouse to outhouse.
feeling like i had some "panama red" myself right now :) .. awesome tune
R.I.P. EDDIE VAN HALEN, died at the age of 65 after a long fight with cancer at his throat.
Wish everyone the best with his loss.
Damm Marlboro's
We all smoked back in the day.
Michael Schutten. Many people use the phrase RIP (Rest in Peace), when speaking of someone who has passed away. But the Bible tells us that those who do not know Christ has no peace. Rather, he has the wrath of God abiding on him. Jesus said,
35 The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into His hand. 36 He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him." (John 3:35-36)
So, from what you know about Eddie Van Halen's life, why do you think he is resting in peace?

Nelson Cheng lol, some people never grow up.
@@bossHogOG And some people don't listen to what God says to us through the Bible.
@@nelsoncheng4638, always been thought that believers never were allowed to listen to Van Halen (to many sex, drug and rock and roll) :-)
Love this after so many years!
