Eddie Van Halen is a guitar god amongst a pantheon of guitar legends, this is why you most likely heard these riffs on Guitar Hero. This came out in 1983 on the Album titled 1984, this was the last album with lead singer David Lee Roth aka Diamond Dave.
Son, that right there is the late great Eddie Van Halen on guitar, Michael Anthony on bass guitar, Alex Van Halen on drums and last but certainly not least is DIAMOND David Lee Roth on vocal duties! One of the most BADASS bands of the 70s, 80s and beyond! Roth was replaced later by legendary front man of the band Montrose Sammy Hagar! I am proud to be a part of that era and a Gen-X'r!!! The 80s was an amazing time in music history and you have a lot more music to listen to and experience for yourself the magic that is 80s ROCK N ROLL!!! 🤘😎👍
The Kramer guitar Eddie used in this video, just sold this past spring at auction for almost 4 million dollars. Eddie Van Halen was a goat and changed an entire generation on how guitar players played or learned the instrument.
Van Halen was the rock band that changed the rock scene when they debuted in 1978... Guitarist Edward Van Halen reinvented guitar playing and ushered in a new generation of frantic & articulate guitar players in the 80's. This was from 1984... their 6th album also titled '1984' and sold 10 million copies in the USA w/ their original vocalist David Lee Roth. Edward 'Eddie' Van Halen (guitar) and his older brother Alex Van Halen (drums) were from the Netherlands... their dad Jan Van Halen (who was a jazz musician) moved his family to California in the 1960's... Eddie and Alex loved rock n' roll music and decided to form a band as kids. Eddie could not afford a guitar, so he built one w/ parts of discarded guitars and called it the 'Frankenstein'... He and Alex played gigs in high school and backyard parties in Pasadena, California... Eddie would rent a P.A. system from another kid named David Lee Roth so that he could sing while performing. He decided it was cheaper just to hire David Lee Roth as the band's singer in 1974... Roth was not the best singer, but he could be entertaining onstage... He recognized Eddie Van Halen as a huge talent on guitar and suggested the band be named Van Halen - it sounded like a marquee name and people would come to see Eddie on guitar. Michael Anthony (bass) joined soon after and Van Halen spent years performing small local gigs. As a young guitarist, Eddie Van Halen found new techniques to play guitar and make sound effects, but was reluctant to show them off at the time... By the 80's, everyone was trying to replicate or emulate his playing style and onstage charisma. By the time Van Halen was playing L.A. clubs in 1976, there was interest from Gene Simmons of Kiss to record their demos and sign the band... but in the 70's disco/ punk rock era, no one was interested at the time. Van Halen was finally signed in 1977 and released their debut album in 1978... Eddie Van Halen's explosive guitar playing shook the rock scene, and David Lee Roth's acrobatic stage presence made him a rock star as the debut album sold 10 million copies in the US... Van Halen opened for Black Sabbath and were stealing the show every night... Roth wanted Van Halen to deliver rock music w/ guitars, vocal harmonies and grooves that fans could dance to... It made Van Halen very popular w/ the ladies. 5 albums sold platinum-plus in the US and Van Halen were the biggest American rock band for a while... Van Halen tried to break into European markets but never enjoyed the level of popularity that they had in America... They opened a UK tour for Black Sabbath in 1978 and co-headlined the UK Monsters of Rock festival in 1984 w/ AC/DC... David Lee Roth played the 1988 UK Monsters of Rock festival as a solo artist. By the time MTV launched in 1981, Van Halen got into making music videos for their 6th album '1984'... Eddie Van Halen was also playing more keyboards and synthesizers and Van Halen had a #1 single 'Jump'. However, there were tension brewing between the band and David Lee Roth... Roth could be controlling and aggravating in the studio, and Eddie Van Halen wanted to write more songs on keyboards, which Roth was opposed to... After the tour ended in 1985, David Lee Roth wanted to start a movie career and released a solo EP of covers 'Crazy from the heat', hoping to make it a big screen flick... Van Halen were not amused and soon parted ways w/ the singer as Eddie Van Halen was already writing a new Van Halen album. Vocalist Sammy Hagar joined Van Halen in 1986 and the band found more success w/ a new singer, scoring 4 albums at #1 on the US charts from 1986 to 1996... Unfortunately, egos clashed and Sammy Hagar was out of Van Halen in '96... They released 1 album ('Van Halen III' in 1998) w/ vocalist Gary Cherone of the band Extreme. A reunion w/ David Lee Roth on vocals finally came in 2007, but they only released 1 new album in 20 years w/ Roth. In 2020, Eddie Van Halen passed away after a long battle w/ cancer (R.I.P.)... Van Halen has been effectively over without him.
Well done mate. Growing up in the late ’s and 80’s was amazing for music . Van Halen has a massive catalog; , enjoy it all. My boy Odin here, has a great ear. He recommends “Fool In The Rain” Led Zeppelin “Interstate Love Song” Official Video version Stone Temple Pilots- “Police On My Back” By The Clash. “Paradise City” Official Video Guns’n Roses It’s an era endless bad ass bands and music to chooser from
1984. As far as videos go, you can check out Panama and/or Jump. All of those songs came off the same album, titled 1984 in...you guessed it, the same year. VH hit the scene in 78 and there aren't too many videos for their first two albums since MTV was not yet a thing. What you really need tho, since you have gotten somewhat of an intro into the band is to check out Eddie Van Halen, Eruption guitar solo, live in 1986. It is 13 minutes long, but to understand why Van Halen changed the face of the music scene in 78, you definitely need to watch Eddie do his magic.
You need to watch Eddie Van Halen's Eruption guitar solo from their without a net tour. It will leave you speechless and wondering how does he do that!!! We kiss you King Edward!!
Dude I just started watching your videos. Think I've watched seven or eight now. You have so much to learn. I'm 64, And I've been going to concerts since I was 14. An absolutely love rock and roll of all kinds. I've been to probably 400 plus concerts and still go constantly. You have so much to learn grasshopper. 😂
Holy crap ! It’s from the “1984” album. I went to the concert. Alex Van Halen is one of the most underrated drummers. This song was Alex’s solo song. Oh my god. He played so fast it sounded like one continuous note. We went so fast and with his double foot pedal. Just amazing never heard anything like it. Michael Anthony did his bass solo. He threw it from the top of a mountain of speakers. When it hit the stage, it was so loud the steel in the dome of the Colosseum started to shake. Then he jumped into the air doing the splits then landing on the bass with both feet. My knees buckled from the sound waves. Honestly I couldn’t hear for 3 days. My ears rang for 3 days. I’m 57 now and my ears ring constantly like that 3 days
The David Lee Roth era of Van Halen is the absolute best!! So much fun in the music, the attitude and the vocals of DLR and bassist Michael Anthony. You will love those albums.
I’m always checking for new VH reactions and I’m glad I came across this one. Do yourself a favor and check out the entire Van Halen 1 album. Not one bad song on it. Would be nice to get a an entire album reaction too.
You've just been introduced to King Edward Van Halen on guitar and Alexander "the great" Van Halen on drums. This band was pivotal for the rise of guitar techniques, sound and looks in 80's heavy metal. 🤘😠 They are a late 1970's band. But they did they're "jump" to stardom right from their first album. They hail from Pasadena, California. Rest in peace Eddie.
This was on the album 1984, released in 1984. Was their first album to top the charts, then singer David Lee Roth decided to quit, but the band made a great move and hired Sammy Hagar, who brought new life to the band.
broooo you got so much Van Halen to listen to that you will love, can’t wait to see it. i’m sure that whole self titled first album will blow you away based on what I’ve seen from your Metallica reactions 🤘
This kind of well-produced video that tells a story is almost always going to be from the '80s, when MTV became a thing. Stuff from the '70s will usually be footage of the band performing. (Although of course videos of a band performing could also be from later, but this type of video is rarely from earlier.)
My very first concert was Van Halen in New Mexico Circa 1979 - I think it was VH3 tour. I was in the very top row, the air was full of smoke (the good kind) and Eddie had his red and white axe while DLR was throwing kicks above his head and climbing up the Marshall stack with a bottle of Jack Daniels being consumed rapidly! RIP EDDIE THE GREAT - My favorite track of theirs is Mean Streets and Running with the Devil always kicks ass too!
If you haven't seen other reactions to it yet I highly recommend checking out Eddie Van Halen's live Eruption solo from their Live Without A Net concert. The man is pretty scary on guitar, and that was you get to see him do his thing live.
Van Halen hit mainstream in '78, but had been on the pasadena circuit since 74-75 (?) doing backyard parties and local clubs. Hot For Teacher was off their 1984 album. The concept of the song / video is that alot of boys hitting puberty had crushes on attractive teachers.
After David Lee Roth left the band Sammy Hagar became their lead vocalist and you need to their newer songs like " Poundcake " and anything from their "5150" album. Eddie was "The guitar God " according to Guitar Magazine. He started more kids to want to play the guitar than any other guitarist that has ever lived!!!
OMG😂 My mother yelled at me for watching this video in the 80s💀 Van Halen always had a long elaborate music videos. California Gurls was another video that had a long entrance.
Eddie Van Halen is on my guitar Mt Rushmore with David Gilmour of Pink Floyd, Jimi FRIGGIN Hendrix, and Stevie Ray Vaughan! Eddie created a playing style called hammer on and off which is where instead of strumming the strings with the pick he taps on the strings will fingering the frets. And this one came out in I think 84
Everyone always goes off about the guitar on this song (deservedly so), but keeping that straight two up high and swinging the double kick for that long without tripping over yourself is NOT easy
I just found this. Welcome to Van Halen!!!!! Please go down that rabbit hole!!!! It’s so worth it if I think 🤔 you’re who I think you are!!!! Just like AC/DC you won’t be disappointed!!!!! So says Austin Tx!!!! 🤣🤣🥳🤘😎🍸 PS if you like F1 racing feel free to watch Sky Sports in your home this weekend!!!! We have the F1 series this weekend on our own purpose built racing track and it is always a hoot!!!! Just saying!!!! 😊😊🤣🤣🥳❤️😎🍸
🎶♥️Saw VAN HALEN in 1983, JAMS ARE EPIC, ONE OF OUR ICONIC ROCK BANDS FOR SURE… MUST DO SOME MORE WITH DAVID LEE ROTH AS LEAD SINGER. EDWARD VAN HALEN♥️R.I.P., created his own guitar 🎸 ♥️
Waldo's Mom moaning at the begining could be that he is getting to the age that he's becoming uncomfortable with her doting but we always figured she was just trying to get him sent off to school before the mail man showed up. Lol! This song was part story about growing up. Starts in elementary school ends at graduation. The teacher in normal clothes is reality, tearing them off is their imagination kicking in. Locked in the jail cell has a double meaning, they are now old enough to do something about their feelings but she is still the teacher so they can't/she wont, hence the, almost, dominatrix in the cell with them and they are almost done with school and ready "go out into the world" but not quite, then... "CLASS DISSMISSED!" Now the bus is a hot rod because they are "hot rods", not little kids anymore. Also it made puberty fun and cool instead of scary and uncomfortable. " "Yeah baby, I've got a "hot rod" and I'm ready to rock!" " Compare Waldo at the start (sweaty nervous wreck) to Waldo at the end (rich with an entourage of beauties... or a pimp... no one's really sure. 😉 lol) And, as you mentioned, it helped certain kids actually want to go to school... 🎶 "I think of all the education that I've missed... but then my homework was never quite like this!" 🎶
Sweet boy, Eddie Van Halen was one of the greatest guitarists of all time. I am so glad you took the suggestion to listen to them. Maybe not this song for your first time, because it makes them look so goofy. Please go down the rabbit hole and enjoy. Looking forward to more VH vids. This is the mid 80’s BTW 84 85 maybe.
You want to hear one of the best guitarist ever. Listen to eruption from Van Halen. Do it now. The longer you wait, the more you will kick yourself for not listening to it earlier.
lol, we HAD a teacher like that, but she never stripped down like that (more's the pity), but she was caught playing with herself in class one day and unfortunately that was the end of that (we were an all boys school!!!!)
Van Halen was one of those bands that was massive in the USA, but not so huge elsewhere. They were essentially a party band, but with one massive exception - they had the greatest guitarist in the world. They’re definitely a fun band. Several really good and popular songs, but fairly inconsistent. They’re a greatest hits band. The top 10 songs are excellent, but then it kinda drops away.
Literally one of the worst takes on Van Halen I’ve ever heard. I mean ridiculously bad. Clearly you’re not a Van Halen fan. Hopefully this guy didn’t waste much time digesting what you wrote. I don’t even even know where to start it’s so silly.
Ah yes school buses in America. Where most of the bullying took place. Ah memories. I’ll leave out weather I was giver or the recipient of said bullying.

Just a bunch of great musicians having a great time, as they always seemed to be
You dont get much better than eddy with his frankenfender not many could string his guitar...❤
Dude I just started watching your videos. Think I've watched seven or eight now. You have so much to learn. I'm 64, And I've been going to concerts since I was 14. An absolutely love rock and roll of all kinds. I've been to probably 400 plus concerts and still go constantly. You have so much to learn grasshopper. 😂
I saw them in Vancouver, May 1984. Great concert!
Mean street , ain't talking about love. Great songs by van halen
Mean Street is FIRE!
Holy crap ! It’s from the “1984” album.
I went to the concert.
Alex Van Halen is one of the most underrated drummers.
This song was Alex’s solo song. Oh my god.
He played so fast it sounded like one continuous note. We went so fast and with his double foot pedal.
Just amazing never heard anything like it.
Michael Anthony did his bass solo. He threw it from the top of a mountain of speakers. When it hit the stage, it was so loud the steel in the dome of the Colosseum started to shake. Then he jumped into the air doing the splits then landing on the bass with both feet.
My knees buckled from the sound waves.
Honestly I couldn’t hear for 3 days.
My ears rang for 3 days.
I’m 57 now and my ears ring constantly like that 3 days

Thank you for watching I’m glad you enjoyed it! I’ll definitely be reacting to more Van Halen
I love the reaction that the charismatic voice does to this song.

The album is called 1984
This was on the album 1984, released in 1984. Was their first album to top the charts, then singer David Lee Roth decided to quit, but the band made a great move and hired Sammy Hagar, who brought new life to the band.
Van Halen was a musical phenomenon. As far as rock guitar goes basically there was pre-Hendrix and post-Hendrix, pre-Van Halen and post-Van Halen.
broooo you got so much Van Halen to listen to that you will love, can’t wait to see it. i’m sure that whole self titled first album will blow you away based on what I’ve seen from your Metallica reactions 🤘

YES, THE GREAT EVH ON LEAD GUITAR=!!
MTV began in 1980. So, this is early 80's.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼😎
so funny as many years as I have loved this song I've never seen the video! Btw....1984. And that was the name of the album.
Dave Lee Roth put the humour, character and charisma into the music. Amazing band
1984 was a great time for music & videos
It came out in 1984
My very first concert was Van Halen in New Mexico Circa 1979 - I think it was VH3 tour. I was in the very top row, the air was full of smoke (the good kind) and Eddie had his red and white axe while DLR was throwing kicks above his head and climbing up the Marshall stack with a bottle of Jack Daniels being consumed rapidly!

Favorite album by these guys; “Mean Streets.”
ALL other Van Halen tunes! 🤘
Atomic punk has always been my fav❤
Van Halen hit mainstream in '78, but had been on the pasadena circuit since 74-75 (?) doing backyard parties and local clubs. Hot For Teacher was off their 1984 album. The concept of the song / video is that alot of boys hitting puberty had crushes on attractive teachers.

The year was 84 from the album 1984
Miss House.....My (1986) high school gymnastics teacher! We dedicated this song to her. lol Prince was a great guitarist!!!
Van Halen did have there own guitar hero game
Nailed the time period!! Im impressed!
Having a teacher like that I would never miss that class but then again I’d never pass that class either
Again awesome - Van Halen - Dreams, Love's walk in, Whei it''s love?
Everyone always goes off about the guitar on this song (deservedly so), but keeping that straight two up high and swinging the double kick for that long without tripping over yourself is NOT easy
I just found this. Welcome to Van Halen!!!!! Please go down that rabbit hole!!!! It’s so worth it if I think 🤔 you’re who I think you are!!!! Just like AC/DC you won’t be disappointed!!!!! So says Austin Tx!!!! 🤣🤣🥳🤘😎🍸
PS if you like F1 racing feel free to watch Sky Sports in your home this weekend!!!! We have the F1 series this weekend on our own purpose built racing track and it is always a hoot!!!! Just saying!!!! 😊😊🤣🤣🥳❤️😎🍸
great reaction!!! fun fact; that guitar he was playing in the video just sold for $3.9M earlier this year...no bull S***
One of my favorites of theirs is Ice Cream Man
Check out Drop Dead Legs from that album. Killer groove, badass bass and awesome guitar work.
Eddie Van Halen played the guitar solo in Michael Jackson's Beat it
I got to see this tour for my first VH tour. 1984
🎶♥️Saw VAN HALEN in 1983, JAMS ARE EPIC, ONE OF OUR ICONIC ROCK BANDS FOR SURE… MUST DO SOME MORE WITH DAVID LEE ROTH AS LEAD SINGER. EDWARD VAN HALEN♥️R.I.P., created his own guitar 🎸 ♥️
They all went to school together so n Pasadena, CA
From 1980-1990 MTV RULED. AND ALL BANDS HAD VIDEOS!!!!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Waldo's Mom moaning at the begining could be that he is getting to the age that he's becoming uncomfortable with her doting but we always figured she was just trying to get him sent off to school before the mail man showed up. Lol!
This song was part story about growing up. Starts in elementary school ends at graduation.
The teacher in normal clothes is reality, tearing them off is their imagination kicking in.
Locked in the jail cell has a double meaning, they are now old enough to do something about their feelings but she is still the teacher so they can't/she wont, hence the, almost, dominatrix in the cell with them and they are almost done with school and ready "go out into the world" but not quite, then... "CLASS DISSMISSED!" Now the bus is a hot rod because they are "hot rods", not little kids anymore.
Also it made puberty fun and cool instead of scary and uncomfortable. " "Yeah baby, I've got a "hot rod" and I'm ready to rock!" " Compare Waldo at the start (sweaty nervous wreck) to Waldo at the end (rich with an entourage of beauties... or a pimp... no one's really sure. 😉 lol)
And, as you mentioned, it helped certain kids actually want to go to school...
🎶 "I think of all the education that I've missed... but then my homework was never quite like this!" 🎶
Waldo's voice at the beginning is the late great Phil Hartman.
The BEST rock band EVER !!!!
😂 I miss Diamond Dave! He was always fun hosting MTV Holiday shows! 😒 I never saw 1 show with Hagar, but was back when Dave came back! 😁🥰🐰
You should watch his son wolfie with dave grohl do this song. Rhey just did a tribute to Him recently. His son played his dads solo perfectly !
Definitely time to do the accompaniment video: ‘Death To All But Metal’ by Steel Panther 🤘🏻😂🤘🏻
Sweet boy, Eddie Van Halen was one of the greatest guitarists of all time. I am so glad you took the suggestion to listen to them. Maybe not this song for your first time, because it makes them look so goofy. Please go down the rabbit hole and enjoy. Looking forward to more VH vids. This is the mid 80’s BTW 84 85 maybe.
80s were over the TOP..😂
David lee roth had a fantastic sense of humour.
My favorite band of all time. Eddie Van Halen is the best rock guitarist ever. Try Ain’t Talkin Bout Love, Unchained, and Panama, just to name a few
Dude , fair waring, jump , panama were some of the early 80s great
There were a lot of teenie boppers for whom David Lee Roth was all it.
Another Van Halen song you will like is Panama
You need to hear early Van Halen. 1978-1984
My personal favorite is Van Halen 1&2
Try running with the devil off their debut album
Time for more AC/DC . "Whole Lotta Rosie" (Live from River Plate)
Hot for Teacher from the 1984 album. Just a fun video. Nothing more.
Check out Van Halen's "Mean Street" (no video). Think you will dig it!!!
Until now, I've never seen anyone watch this video, and not laugh. Right over your head.
It’s not that it went right over my head, it just wasn’t that funny
You want to hear one of the best guitarist ever. Listen to eruption from Van Halen. Do it now. The longer you wait, the more you will kick yourself for not listening to it earlier.
Eddie van haven is one of the greatest guitar players ever
lol, we HAD a teacher like that, but she never stripped down like that (more's the pity), but she was caught playing with herself in class one day and unfortunately that was the end of that (we were an all boys school!!!!)
I was a young teen when this came out.

Eruption and You Really Got Me off of Van Halen 1
You should react to Van Halen Mean Street
Van Halen was one of those bands that was massive in the USA, but not so huge elsewhere.
They were essentially a party band, but with one massive exception - they had the greatest guitarist in the world.
They’re definitely a fun band. Several really good and popular songs, but fairly inconsistent.
They’re a greatest hits band. The top 10 songs are excellent, but then it kinda drops away.
Literally one of the worst takes on Van Halen I’ve ever heard. I mean ridiculously bad. Clearly you’re not a Van Halen fan. Hopefully this guy didn’t waste much time digesting what you wrote. I don’t even even know where to start it’s so silly.
@@BANONEGuitar seems to be a fairly common opinion, but sure.
Name of the album literally is 1984
I recommend spit it out by slipknot
please do more of van halen do panama or aint talking bout love
Ah yes school buses in America. Where most of the bullying took place. Ah memories. I’ll leave out weather I was giver or the recipient of said bullying.
Defo early 80s
When Darrell was murdered Eddie Van Halen gave him his black and yellow guitar to be buried with him.
If you like hot for teacher, check out Death to all but Metal by Steel panther
I love the song, I love the band, I just can’t take too much of Dave’s video.
Has anyone told him about Van Hagar? 🤷🏻♀️😂
Steel Panther! Doesn't matter which one.
