TOP 3 VAN HALEN SONGS

[Nosferatu]

I liked Sammy by himself but you gotta be fucking insane to think Van Halen was better as Van Hagar


EDIT... Maybe insane was too harsh, honestly though all it really means is if you like VH with Sammy more than you do with Diamond Dave you like Pop music more than Rock n Roll.

It's interesting that the oft challenged Nickleback has at least 4 songs better than Van Halen's best. Van Halen's songs all sounded the same and were boring.

Wow, dude....horrible troll effort.

Seriously!!

Horrible troll effort...

Name 1 Van Halen song better than the 5 I indentified. You can't.

GTFO!!!

I won't even stoop to that lame ass level to dignify your cluelessness.

Unchained
I'll Wait

Every song they had with DLR is better, every fucking one of them...

Knew you couldn't respond with facts and truth, but I at least expected a mature response. Guess not. And now you're going around BS'ing all my posts? Grow up. But I fully understand why you are utterly incapable of answering my question and instead engage in personal attacks on the messenger a la the liberal playbook when you have nothing for an argument.

[Breed]

One of the most overrated bands in history. Elevator music at best.

Overrated eh. Not big on the Hagar period, but I saw the original line-up of VH, 4, maybe 5 times, and partied with them three times. As far as what I thought they were, which is essentially a good time rock n roll band. They had that pretty well nailed down. As far as after-parties, at least in the late 70s/early, mid 80s, went. It was them and Rick James then everybody else.

In no particular order

Eruption/You Really Got Me - I know its two songs, but I've always considered this as one song.
Ice Cream Man
Beautiful Girls
And The Cradle Will Rock
Mean Streets

Though if I were to have first read this thread two days for now. My choices might be. Unchained, Hot For Teacher, Big Bad Bill (Is Sweet William Now), Dance The Night Away, and Roth's take on Just A Gigolo, and California Girls.

Well. don't get me wrong. I'm not claiming that they're bad, just greatly overrated.

Heh. Fair enough.

Fucked up list is fucked up, skewing results. Do you want a top 5 of chartbusters, or radio favorites or what real VH fans like?

Nothing off Diver Down? No Where have all the good times gone, no Secrets, no Full Bug, or Pretty Woman? Pffft

Same for Fair Warning... no Mean Streets, Silver Screen, or So this is Love? Pfft

#1. Eruption/You really got me
#2. Everybody wants Some
#3. Romeo Delight
#4. Mean Street
#5. In a Simple Rhyme

...Ain't talkin 'bout love
Panama
Top Jimmy
I'll Wait
Secrets
Intruder/Pretty Woman

Damn I forgot about Mean Street..... That's one of my top songs by them.

When DLR left VH,I could not listen to them anymore....SH was no showman that's for sure....
DLR had the voice, moves and had an act to go with it.

And DLR by himself was better than the Nickleback bullshit..........

EDT(Cabo Wabo is the only decent song from the SH era)

 

[jjc2009]

1. Ain't Talkin About Love
2. Panama
3. Jamie's Crying
4. Running With the Devil
5. Everybody Wants Some

Would have substituted Right Now. Only Van Hagar era song worthy.

 

[jjc2009]

What? No Gary Cherone songs?
