@@clansome Eddie drank too much, alcohol abuse affects everything about a person. He didn't get along with David either. He only hung tight with his brother, Alex. If it wasn't for Valerie coming into his life when she did, who knows, but she did help him in ways that only love can, then when his son was born, he found happiness. How do I know? I knew them and refuse to disclose secrets, that was a long time ago. It was Ed's drinking that made him that way, otherwise, he was a very sweet, kind person.
I wish the Sammy H version had never broken up and that he sucked it up and started doing a few more DLR cuts to help keep fans happy or whatever. Leaving DLR to his own devices would not have been so bad. The music, certainly did not change for the better when they re-formed again as DLR was going downhill with his performances IMHO, the SH version would have been better musically, save for the sorrowful passing of EVH. Again, IMHO!!
You just couldn't squeeze anymore love out of a guitar solo..that solo hits you deep down..Eddie once again only as he can, squeezing every bit of emotion from his instrument for us to experience.. Eddie =The GOAT
I saw VH twice. Once with David and then with Sammy. David put on a great show, but Sammy definitely had the voice. As long as Eddie was there, is was amazing. I miss that man so much!
I'm a Sammy guy but I also acknowledge that this band would probably not exist had it been for David Lee Roth. And David Lee Roth laid the foundation of this band. And was at least responsible for the first half of its popularity from his presence alone. Such a strong influence that I don't think years later he should be remotely discredited or soon do have taken a backseat to anybody. And believe me when I tell you I love Sammy about 300 times more than David Lee Roth
Watching this because today marks one year since my ex-husband's death (2/15/22)...this was our song and we both had a blast at the OU812 Tour concert ..I love you and miss you Joe..I'm forever grateful we made amends and were friends to the end.. ❤️
Bloody hell your heart felt comment brought tears to my eyes. So sad...hope your ok..l lost my girlfriend 10 yrs ago and never a day l dont think about her. Take care.
It’s not you. They do sound better live because they’re a REAL BAND who played the songs on their albums lived. Well when you’re a musician and you keep playing a song over and over you get more comfortable playing it and thus better at it. When they’re playing it in a studio they’re thinking about it because they want to get a good recording of it. Live they’re not thinking about it and just playing it. Thus live it’s them in their purest and best form. Especially if you saw them later in the tour. At the beginning of the tour they’re not near as polished on the songs as they are at the end of the tour. Look at them live in 1995. The Pensacola show on MTV was the first show of the tour. Then look at the Toronto pay-per-view show that was towards the end. As good as they Pensacola show is they’re on another level for the Toronto show. =\/|-|= FOREVER!!
technically, it depends on the track, but in general, yes. i would say recreating runnin' with the devil and ain't talkin' bout love live are very very difficult to match the VH 1 tracks. mostly everything else live is insane i was at the LIve without a Net concert....absolute pandomonium. the best eddie ever was was on the 1995 tour. he was completely sober and a maestro on stage. like..."you couldn't believe how well he played" vituosity. i don't what anyone says, if you weren't LIVE at the 1995 shows, you missed Ed's best performances of all time. he even talked about it on a radio station in NYC during the tour
This is a great song and stands on it's own, despite the Hagar, Roth discussion. Eddie was the common denominator, the man could write great compositions and the band made them great songs. RIP EVH. If it brings back good memories then it is a great song.
These 4 guys were the perfect combination of vocalists, lyricists and instrumentalists. To me, Sammy was the link that took VH from great into the stratosphere of greatest. I saw many concerts through the years and I was always amazed at how awesome their live shows sounded. They are by far one of the greatest rocks bands of all time. Never to be forgotten. Iconic music for the ages. RIP Eddie.
How many bands can catch lightning in a bottle TWICE like Van Halen. Imagine if Eddie had not gotten sick and passed, and they got to have their "Everybody" tour. RIP ELVH 🎸 🎶
I’m glad I got to see this lineup at the 1988 monsters of rock in NJ 9 hour show with some of the greatest bands Van Halen killed it live …. So glad I went. It was one for the ages I feel bad for todays generation that has no clue what real music is…..this video was insane
I never saw them with David but thought Sammy was a great replacement and they definitely didn’t disappoint at the monsters of rock. Not sure which I would have picked as the best moment of the VH show, them performing or the videographer showing a bare chested chick on the huge big screen for thousands to get an eyeful lol😂
Always preferred "Van Hagar" quartet even though the only time I saw them was on their first UK tour in UK supporting (propping up in reality) Black Sabbath back in 1978 with DLR. They were amazing.
I remember this song playing off of the mixtape my mum had in the car growing up. Haven't heard it in a long, long time. Great memories and a fuckin' banging tune!
IMO, this is when they were at the top of their game, this was the PEAK of it. Everything was hitting, they were everywhere, concerts were sold out, Eddie was better and more polished than ever and Michael Anthony's backup vocals were the perfect gravy to compliment Sammy's raspy style.
PERFECT BASS LINES ..... EXCELLENT TIMING ...TONE AND SOUND ......TOP NOTCH ....ONE OF THE VERY BEST IN THE BUSINESS..... SUPURB VOICE AND SUPPORTING VOCALS FOR DECADES !!!! ....NEVER DID MUCH COMPLAINING AND ALWAYS SHOWED UP READY TO PLAY .......THATS WHAT MICHAEL ANTHONY DID FOR HIS PAY .....AND HAS BEEN WORTH EVERY RED CENT OF IT ..........JUST ASK SAMMY ...☺️👍🙏
Well , one of Eddie's greatest songs. But he may never be seen again. He was cremated , not frozen. He had plenty of money but for whatever reason he was cremated. Nothing remains of Van Halen but audio and video recordings and the friends Eddie left behind.
@@iouel yes. They weren’t trying to hide it. The opening of the dvd features the director who tells you this in the first minute. Oh well…this is what we have left …..

Sammy can freakin sing. Crazy good live.
When It came down to vocals Roth wasn't in the same league as Sammy!
This is one of the greatest power ballads of all time.
Of course dear but 👍🏽🏦 it's her majesty Sammy the ultimate goat human and beyond grateful
DEFINITELY Van Hagar….
❤
@@joeygirl314 Sammy , took a great band of all time RIP EDDIE 💀💀💀
I agree.yes.
That tone from Eddy is on another planet rip sir!!!
Ele é o melhor...sempre Edi❤❤❤❤
The day is just not complete till I hear some VAN HALEN!
Amen Brother, it's not normal if I don't hear the Mighty Van Halen!! 🎤🎸🎹🥁💪😎🍻🤘🇺🇲
Michaels vocals piercing. Always the glue that held the melody together.
EVH treated him like shit. EVH might have been a guitar god but he certainly wasn't a "people" person.
No doubt!

Funny and real truth is he actually WAS a people person!
When sober.
When high or drunk, the demons messed his judging...

Leaving DLR to his own devices would
not have been so bad.

again as DLR was going downhill with his performances
IMHO, the SH version would have been better musically, save for the

Again, IMHO!!
The maestro at his finest. There is never been a guitar player who can rival EVH
You just couldn't squeeze anymore love out of a guitar solo..that solo hits you deep down..Eddie once again only as he can, squeezing every bit of emotion from his instrument for us to experience..
Eddie =The GOAT
nah, The MAN. big difference. never the goat. crappy ppl says that.
I saw VH twice. Once with David and then with Sammy. David put on a great show, but Sammy definitely had the voice. As long as Eddie was there, is was amazing. I miss that man so much!
These 4 dudes were just amazing!! It's one of my all-time favorites! Dave, take a seat a listen to a true vocalist!
DLR cannot even tie the shoes of SH.
On His worst Day Sammy can still Sing Circles around Diamond Dave
Yes if you love keyboard love songs Sammy is your man. If you like heavy rock songs DLR is the winner.

This topic is as easy as this:
David: t10 EVER rock showman.
Sammy: t10 EVER rock voice stamina, consistence, range and versatility.
Background vocals Mike...angel voice....RIP King EVH...my music man forever....💙💚💛💜💕💖
Thank you EVH ! Our Wedding Song May 13th 1989 . Gary & Sue ❤️
Still one of my all time favorites. Rip Eddie. You were the best.
And still is...and always will be
That tone that voice that smile

Thanks for sharing
good on you, Lara. I hope to follow your example for my situation. maybe i was meant to see your comment. Bless you
This the very best performance and it was in my hometown, Fresno!
This is the greatest love/rock song ever!!
No way. Love to hate is
This version of Van Halen was soooooo good live.
Vocals,bass,Rythm,lead complete packageThanks Eddie,
Eddie, a Master of his Craft ! R.I.P.
Is it just me or does Van Halen sound better live?
I didn't notice how explosive this was until I listened through the headphones. They rocked it Forever!
It’s not you. They do sound better live because they’re a REAL BAND who played the songs on their albums lived.

especially with Sammy... He brought a new dynamic to Van Halen and it's unfortunate it ended. They were phenomenal live
RIP King Edward your greatness lives on forever.
Just crying right now...
God bless You Samy, Eddy forever!!!!
The best guitar player on earth....Congratulations....
Easy don't forget Jimmy Hendrix
I have chills and tears in my eyes miss you Eddie VanHalen

Agreed.
But...vh 3...🥴
Sammy wrote most of the lyrics during the VAN HAGAR-ERA
What you wanna say please express your mind

Agree. 100%
Absolute perfection!!!!
Nobody writes music with this same feeling, melody, rhythm, meaning anymore it's all the se
100% Energy Rock' roll Great Sammy Vocals ❤️💪

I feel bad for todays generation that has no clue what real music is…..this video was insane
I was at the JFK show in Philly when you saw it in Jersey.
I never saw them with David but thought Sammy was a great replacement and they definitely didn’t disappoint at the monsters of rock. Not sure which I would have picked as the best moment of the VH show, them performing or the videographer showing a bare chested chick on the huge big screen for thousands to get an eyeful lol😂
long live king ed , this is awesome . awesome quaility aswell
Truly a Van Halen concert ❤
Best lineup ever. So good.
You got a hot drummer there yes one of the best!!♥️🎶😻♥️🎶♥️
Seen Van Halen many times over the years since 1982 but in my opinion, this tour (Fuck) 91/92 and balance in 95 was their best sound.
What a band, love those 4 guys for ever
The powerhouse background vocals of Michael Anthony
Love hearing this again.....and again....and....well you get the point!!💖🎶🎸🎶💖💖💖💖
Epic video.Thanks for posting!!!!!!!!!!
When it’s love is so good to hear in this video in the live music of it!♥️🌟👋
Amazing ......the best version of VH!
Ed was an innovator, everyone else were imitation.
They DID!
🎸R.I.P.
🥁 Retired
VH is done 😢
Look Forward to seeing Sammy in Nj on the 27th
it's so evident the love for eric clapton inside the guitar solo love you for ever eddie
You are one of the few that noticed the Clapton influence
Always preferred "Van Hagar" quartet even though the only time I saw them was on their first UK tour in UK supporting (propping up in reality) Black Sabbath back in 1978 with DLR. They were amazing.
This is probably their best version of this one
I saw vh 5 times live. Glad I did.
*Van Halen. It's an abbreviation of a proper name. Just sayin'.
So cool, Ed hits the bar second nature at the end of the solo!
Van Halen just seems to make this existence a little more bearable!!!!
AWESOME SONG... AWESOME SHOW...I GOT TO SEE V.H. FOUR TIMES...LONG LIVE VAN HALEN...🎸🎸🎸🎸
It just reminds me when I was 17. I was really happy and I didn''t know. I miss these days.

Well , one of Eddie's greatest songs.
But he may never be seen again.
He was cremated , not frozen.
He had plenty of money but for whatever reason he was cremated.
Nothing remains of Van Halen but audio and video recordings and the friends Eddie left behind.
the dvd was filmed on two seperate nights and director incorporated both nights thruout the disc..at least thats what it says on the box...: )
It's noticeable
@@iouel * Jesus…I looked at and was confused . I didn’t remember writing that . The I realized it was 12 years ago . Man I’m getting old
@@iouel yes. They weren’t trying to hide it. The opening of the dvd features the director who tells you this in the first minute. Oh well…this is what we have left …..
Excellent video...Thank You....
This can't be live. Sounds too good!
Go and watch the bootlegs from this tour...they are the same performance level
How do I know when its love??? when Van Halen is rockin on!
Sounds great !!!
