Another proud example of why - Fair Warning - is still the heaviest and most unappreciated record - Van Halen ever recorded. . .
wrong, only this song was great, the rest wasn't heavy or nearly as good. VAn Halen one had way heavier tracks, On Fire, Atomic punk, "Im the one etc
@@SteveBurk Really? What about Unchained? It was the definition of heavy. And Dirty Movies was another good one. I love this album.
Agreed.
Unchained had a great intro, but hated the off beat shit during the pre chorus, and I sing in a Van Halen tribute lol
Steve Burk Dude wth that pre-chorus is one of my favourite parts of the song and imo is one of the parts that make the song Super great.
God I miss music like this.
Roth may have had an ego the size of Montana but the music these guys made together was fucking priceless and untouchable.
Long live VH with Roth
Sammy Hagar was bubblegum rock compared to the original David Lee
Leroy Morris yessss
Untouchables
That ego served him well in the business. Rock is ALL about the swagger...my favorite front man.
We need more front guys with egos the size of Montana.
The older I get the more I appreciate Mike Anthony. He was perfect for that band.
Named my first son after him.
I always thought he looked out of place. Like they just ran down to a football field before a show and picked the first guy who could play bass and asked him to fill in. He just doesn't look rock n roll. Never did lol
@@louc6635 He was the glue that held it all together. If you're a musician most bass guys have this vibe always. The unassuming nature , it's the instrument plus how physical it is, breeds a certain type of person
@@louc6635 See your point, but very important piece of big pig picture.
Little do people know is that the sound that you hear in the back ground is Michael Anthony,s bass and voice he was the high end of there songs 🙂👍him and Michael Anthony were the heart beat of there music and Eddie was the voice of the heat talking and Dave was the presence that said here motherfuckers listen to what we can do ? 👍
Mean Streets was a beasty balls song for VH. The intro riff into the song is just so EVH heavy and unique. The riff into the solo is pure EVH loaded testosterone.. God mode riff's and lead guitar. One of their best songs that gets overlooked. RIP in peace Maestro Eddie.
I couldn't have said it better I agree wholeheartedly ... you know it's Eddie immediately.... oh and this is amazing clip from the 80s we'll never see anything like it again!
Ditto to everything you wrote I love my vanhalen
AMEN!
mean street really should have been fit on to the first album somehow -it is that good.
@@daktarioskarvannederhosen2568 Eddie wrote this back in the 70’s under a different title called “voodoo queen” it’s on the Van Halen Zero Demo if you want to check it out. Another reason why mean street is the best Van Halen song 🎸🎸
This song rips the lid off a bad day. RIP Eddie.
The music portion is so tight ...the geetar part is euphoric
best song of theirs, and seems to be underappreciated
there is nothing today that rocks the way van halen did and still does!
♡
Well said never be another vh
There was nothing like it back then either!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You ain’t shittin. I play Mean Street at least 5 times in a row! The guitar playing is killer!
Dave and those splits. What an athlete. Most athletic frontman
NEVER gets old!!👏🏼💖💖💖
Love Van Halen. Always fun to watch David. He's always having fun and full of energy.
The absolute best most bad ass song from any of the VH albums they had tons of killler songs but this one was like a rattlesnake mean and nasty SO PERFECT
It's awesome!
This never gets old! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Lip syncing but glad we have this years later.
The music, the clothes, the hair, the fucking VanHalen attitude.
Its a reminder of how you can go back and see how great the madness really was!
Why VH never did SNL I guess...
Who is here after hearing of Eddie's death? RIP guitar GOD.
I'm here and I feel terrible
Gone way too soon. So damn talented. Eddie, alongside Les Paul, Hendrix, and so many other members in the Pantheon . RIP EVH
Yes, I been Jamming all day to Van Halen.....Well honestly never needed a reason to blare VH but today it's a must!! Rest in peace EVH
Me too, reflecting on greatness
I am. Was never into van halen so thought I'd take a look again.
Still can't manage to sit through one song except jump.. every other song to me sounds like annoying noise.
alex's drum sound is at its very best here. i particularly love the beautifully tuned, unmuffled toms that are particularly clearly heard right near the beginning.
Brilliant phrasing too
The 80's was about having a good time. This is a promo, not a video. If your not from the 80's you missed out on alot of fun. Dave's is a entertaining front man, and Eddie is one of the best dang guitar players ever. ✌
All 80 here. This was my band then and still today
I miss the 80s
Best dang guitar player ever and show man.
Actually...I think..
Fair Warning was released in 1981..
Women and Children First was released in 1980
Well said
There's not another heavy metal song anywhere that has ever existed that plays out like this one No other song comes on and exits so perfectly Every once in a while in life somethings come off perfect and Van Halen is a prime example
Dear Dodge
Please move out of my basement. Your Mom.
P.S. also,get a life.
is this considered heavy metal or hard rock
@@LuisGonzalez-wy5zg hardish rock
Not only brilliant riff and drums but Michael’s bass is on the money too.
How Awesome were they back in the day !!!!
No one could touch them then
The thing about Van Halen is that it gives you that city type of rock n roll feel which I love. They're from Pasadena CA. They're basically a Los Angeles band. I'm from Los Angeles. I honestly in my opinion think David Lee Roth is one of the best front man I've ever seen. He had the hair, the voice and the moves to prove it.
One of Eddy's best tracks. The playing, feel , and tone are unmatched.
Van Halen in a time at their absolute best!!
Best front man in the world of music...hands down!
man i miss Those days.. Dave had hair was so cool And the music rocked..
Substance, style, class + the ability to kick ass!!!!!
+ Substances
One of my Van Halen songs. Very sad to hear of Eddie Van Halen's passing today - may he rest in peace.
RIP Mr. Van Halen. Thank you for the great memories.
Dave and Ed always went outside the normal boundaries of Rock with their stage outfits. I always liked the this 1981 tour the best for that.
god I loved his outlandishness......
.
That's all some bands have. But VH had so much more.
Love the way Alex's drums sound. That snare is just killer.
The older i get the more i appreciate Alex, what an insane punch and highly recognizable drum style and sound.
Supraphonic!
One of the best rock and roll songs of all time
Fantastic! One of their best.
NEVER GET TIRED OF THIS SONG OR ALBUM....GREAT GROWING UP MUSIC!!!!
Best VH line up ever!
The only real one.
The bass in this song and fair warning as a whole is just a master.
Eddie Van Hamburgler
Show some respect
hahaha
@@janejanebobanebananafannaf2522 it’s not disrespect idiot it’s just a joke. As we all miss and love the god of guitar, that doesn’t mean we can’t make jokes still, but yes, in some cases it’s awkward and unnecessary. This isn’t one of those cases though, it’s just a light joke. This also goes for you too, @Gringo Loco
@@randomraisins7954 oh, sorry for that comment
LMAO!! I love EVH but I’m sure he’d be laughing too. Things look funny sometimes when you look back! That’s a good one!
Van Halen: *The Best Guitar Player Of All Time! *The Best Rock Showman Singer of All Time! One Of The Greatest Drummer Of All Time! One Of The Most Creative And Greatest Bass Player Of All Time!
Only Van Halen can be this good. Nobody else can.
+peaceful harmony well fuckin said dude....well fuckin said!!
Jimmy Page riffed as hard and then some a few years before EVH, only difference is Page didn't tap.
Ozzy and Randy Rhoads.
+Eganweeds garbage live.....really? What an utterly stupid thing to say. He wasn't the greatest player live as he was often under the influence but he still did great shows and played some songs perfect live. Page wasn't a dedicated practise player like later axemen but he was still very good when playing live at times. His back-catalogue of work beats any other guitarists and always will.
Dave always had that cheesy vegas thing in him. Back in the early 80's, he could get away with it and make it fun, now it just does not work.
You really get to hear Michael Anthony's skill on bass in this track. He was so underappreciated.
I Think VAN HALEN was band ahead of its time
I like how David acts so mellow and doesnt try to draw attention to himself.
This album was just fabulous.
Dave cracks me up, but he rocks !
Dave thinks he's Freddie Mercury, but he's just Dave.
man,, I love early Van halen,, playing live and sounding like the studio,, just awesome
because it is playback
Back in it's time it was the best rock album out there no one played the style that Van Halen played and the sounds and vocals is pure rock this is and still is my favorite of them
Every time I hear Eddie play that guitar....I get the shivers. Will there ever be another Van Halen???? I seriously doubt it...
+Dave Nye Only one word: NNOOOO!!
+Dave Nye Ovbiously not, no one can be Eddie except him, but sure there is great players out there, the thing is also that the rock and roll is not as huge as it used to be, wich is important to give status to the new players, just my opinion.
Atomic Punk clone band
Never!
Not to have an ego like dave but I'm learning
Hard to imagine a greater distance between the singer's lyrics and the singer's visual performance that still works.
Here you get to hear the actual words sung. The "performance" is optional, like on the record!!
Awesome sound quality! I can hear all instruments perfectly, even the bass 😁
God, I remember when this came out. I was only 13 but it blew my mind. This was just amazing when I first heard this album.
I swear to God when he jumps up and does ......😃😃😃 chills this guy is so badass man I love it...dave!!
Well, Eddie looks human, but man when I hear his playing it's hard to believe he is not from another planet.
Ed's playing on mean street is absolutely monstrous.
Now you can play every riffs from heaven and we can hear you.
Rest in peace Eddie.
Fair Warning my fav album , it's hard to chose with Van Halen but I think this is not talked about enough one of their heaviest , just killer!
they pretty much inspired a whole generation, all those 80s metal bands.
they are hard rock
pauls skits and vlogs VH are hard rock, I agree. However, the band's I'm talking about came along later, they're not considered hard Rock. Ya know what I mean?
UFO were FAR more inspirational than VH! The only bands VH inspired were POP acts like Motley and Poison!
Larry Mccarty UFO? No try Blue Oyster Cult! No they didn’t inspire any crap because they were too good!
"What the hell did I start?" - Eddie Van Halen LUL
Diamond Dave in his prime.
Probably my favorite VH lp ever. Wore it out!
Such a tragic loss!!! Forever in our hearts, Eddie!!!!
Appreciate reguardless! There was very little video shot of VH during this era.
The greatest band of all time
even lip synch.
DLR + EVH there is no substitute
The Mighty Van Halen. This song kicks ass on every level ❤😎❤
This is still as good as the first time i ever heard it.
Gimme some Mean Streets. My favorite Van Halen song. Eddie's guitar riffs just kicks major butt.
Oh yeah , good songwriting , great vocals and musicianship + stage prescence!! Most so called artists today dont even have talent let alone all those other things. Originals , other bands SOUND LIKE THEM!!!! Women & children first!!!!
So true. Today's groups suck.
THANK YOU SOMEONE FINALLY UNDERSTANDS ME I HATE NEW ARTISTS THEY ARE SOOOOOOOOOOOO ANNOYING OLD MUSIC IS REAL MUSIC
+UberCritical you got that right brother
Thank god for Van Halen. They wrote the book and then shredded it in true rock and roll perfection. From the backyard parties in pasadena to the top of world.
Awesome!!! Greetings, from Varginha, MG (ET Land) - Brazil
At night I walk this stinkin' street
Past the crazies on my block
And I see the same old faces
And I hear that same old talk
And I'm searchin' for the latest thing
A break in this routine
I'm talkin' some new kicks
Ones like you ain't never seen
This is home ah!
Mmm this is Mean Street
It's our home
Only one I know
An' we don't worry 'bout tomorrow
'Cause we're sick of these four walls
Now what you think is nothin'
Might be somethin' after all
Now you know this ain't no through street
The end is dead ahead
The poor folks play for keeps down here
They're the livin' dead
Come on down, huh!
Down to Mean Street
They're dancin' now, look!
Out on Mean Street
Dance baby!
It's always here and now my friend
It ain't once upon a time
It's all over but the shoutin'
I come to take what's mine
We're searchin' for the latest thing
A break in this routine
Talkin' some new kicks
Ones like you ain't never seen
This is home ah!
Mmm this is Mean Street
It's our home
Only one I know
(This is home)
See, a gun is real easy
(This is mean street)
In this desperate part of town
(This is home)
Turns you from hunted into hunter, yeah
(This is mean street)
You go an' hunt somebody down
Wait a minute, ah
(This is home)
Somebody said "Fair warning, Lord"
(This is mean street)
Lord, strike that poor boy down!
youre watching & listening to Eddie play but ALL of you are talking about DAVE....He did something right.
LOL...Eddie and Michael singing into a mic that isn't there.
Karl Houseknecht I laughed at that, too. They made the effort in the first chorus to get close to the mic...then said we don't need no stinkin' mic, lol.
A DIFFERENT Michael: see this incredible mashup of Van Halen and MJ
ruclips.net/video/rs-QzDPyH8o/видео.html
eddie is playing michael's base from behind !!!
This is the STUDIO Version! They LipSynched for the Italians...
lmao
I love this LP. One of my favorites!
Riposa in pace grande chitarrista fai saltare i santi in paradiso ora..
I wonder if Eddie ever regrets wearing the Bay City Rollers costume?
at least Dave couldnt forget the lyrics lol
Baba Booey 1:38
Like you could do better clown 😂
Idiot..most lyrics are repetitive.
I love how they're not even trying xD just having a good time dancing around xD
God this just f’n kicks ass. Thank u Eddie.
Nobody moves and plays like Ed..... the absolute best.
F****** digging Alex Van Halen's bad ass beat on the drum kit
That song is GREAT.!!!!!!! VAN HALEN was my favorite band in 1981 because of that song
Great little oddity that would never be out there without RUclips. So cool.
David Lee Roth is truly one of the coolest dudes.
You need to get out more.
*was*
True day
Joey ramones I tought
And a very smart person. One of the best frontman in rock history imo.
This coming from a guy who plays EVH in a VH tribute band...VH one has some of their best songs ( but every album has fantastic songs that stand out) but Fair Warning has the most unique solos of all their albums!...it’s still mid boggling to this day! Nobody has done anything as experimental in rock since... seriously, ☺️
I thought it was their best album ever since i bought it new way back in 1982
@@ChrisMontgomery-xtrmagamr sales wise it didn’t do so well but art isn’t based on its price tag right? Fair Warning is literally ever guitarist favorite VH record and then 1 & 2 ( arguably of course) but damn…that’s the album that gave Jeff Beck a run for his money ( RIP Jeff Beck)
Thanks for ALL the rock EDDIE.🙉🙈🙊🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸lots of good times in HS and beyond to Van Halen....
Respect to WOLFIE, VAL, AND DRUMMER BROther ALEX. These guys were GEORGUS which turned me on to VAN HALEN to begin with, and then damn it if these beautiful guys were not talented as well. My room as a teenager was covered, and guess what at 50 I have an extra room in my house that still does. My teenage girl room is still here and I LOVE IT...
9/13/20 MY LOVE FOR THIS SONG BROUGHT ME HERE TODAY!!!
Miss seeing the interplay between Edward and Michael.
BK??? Then why is Eddie dressed like the Hamburgler?
Cause if you can play guitar like that, you can wear whatever the fuck you want.
Stripes were big in the early 80's.
It’s a Dutch sailor outfit
Hahahaha
And David is dressed like Ronald McDonald
My favorite Van Halen song.
Oh, the magic of RUclips. Back in the 80's we could only dream of this kind of stuff. We thought we had seen it all then came the internet. Never knew so much VH stuff existed.
eddie's dressed like an 18th century French pirate hahaha
I love how Dave looks like a Power Ranger and a circus director.
He’d probably like that description
R.I.P. Eddie Van Halen 1955-2020
I was a teen again when Vanessa Halen hit the scene and they are still fabulous I will
forever miss eddie.
1 of the most successful bands in history....
I bet you are 325 pounds, 25 years old, living in your parents house. And mom still brings your meals to you.
Alex downsized his kit a bit for this one lol
Yeah, he doesn't need all the drums for faking live performance. Actually, I've seen videos of him in studio earlier in the game and it was usually a basic kit, until women and children with the song Loss of Control, and later, hot for teacher, which included both double bass and electric trigger pads...
Didn’t have room for the other 3 bass drums, apparently
Wolfgang had a beard in 1981?
now that was funny!
haha
not Wolfgang, wasn't born until 1991
the Wolfgang comment was a joke, c'mon guys.
grantorino2009 the closest thing he had to a beard was his mothers clam.
Blasting this in the in the 80s was the coolest thing ever! Still is
Just heard of EVH's passing about fifteen minutes ago. Another day, another legend put to grass. Fuck 2020.
Milli vanilli, eat out your hearts !!!
MILLI VANILLI LIP SYNCHED?!
Heavy Metal Hitman at face book....
Nah, Milli Vanilli really sang. Just not on their own record. LOL.
Roth. What a front man GOD in the day.
Freddie Mercury was the front man King.
I like how they are laughing looking at themselves on the TV monitor at 0:41 XD
These guys are AWESOME! EPIC!
Che rock a questora....amico:-) :-)
questo hard rock mi fa rizzare i capelli in testa!!!
ciao classe 60 buon weekend(^_-)
+avalokitesvara il bodhisattva della compassione grazie amico mio....anche a te...a domani:-) :-)
Eddie's freaking knee socks and matching shirt
RIP Eddie Thank You
Excellent album!!
