    Best Van Halen Cover Tune

    One thing about VH doing a cover tune-- I always thought VHs' always sounded better than the original. Of their cover tunes which would you say is best. I gotta go with "Youre' no good " still gives me chills

      I agree too. One of the reasons is because it is such a polar opposite to the original. And because Dave's voice sounds incredible.

      I love his screams on this one!

        i also have to go with youre no good, daves vocals are amazing and for once eddie plaed a solo that was catchy and went with the song, it wasnt out there like his solos usually are(with the exception of little dreamer and light up the sky)

          You Really Got Me is the best. Maybe Pretty Woman. Sure you've heard YRGM so many times you may be a little sick of it, but it's the best.

                      Man, I was coming here with the express point of giving You're No Good a good strong vote. Am suprised there's so many others. That's cool.

                      For me, it's definitely YNG, followed by live versions of Beer Drinkers & Hell Raisers. I dig WHATGTG too.
