Whats it like being a Van Hagar fan?

[Terry]

Essentially, if you're a Van Hagar fan, you're someone who settles for the lowest common denominator and has diminished expectations.

Very easy to please.

[HELLVIS]

I'm not sure, but I bet it's like when you're wiping your ass and your fingers go through the tissue.

[Lou]

LMMFAO!

[TongueNGroove]

Being a Van Hagar fan is 5150. We get to hear and appreciate a couple decades worth of awesome music and we can actually admit that we like it.


The only difference between us and you is that you can not admit that you like it, but you know you do.

[Matt White]

No, you don't get it. Some of us HATED it from the first listen back in 1986. TERRIBLE. To hear 3/4 of what was once the GREATEST AMERICAN HARD ROCK BAND reduced to a slightly more nimble-fingered JOURNEY was not an enjoyable experience. And it hasn't gotten ANY better over the years.

See now all my flavors are guaranteed to satisfy Hold on, one more

Well I'm usually passin' by just about eleven o'clock

And if you let cool you one time, you'll be my regular stop

All right boys!

They say all my flavors are guaranteed to satisfy Ah one time

(Guitar Solo)

I'm your ice cream man, stop me when I'm passin' by
I'm your ice cream man, stop me when I'm passin' by
They say all my flavors are guaranteed to satisfy

POSER!!! Do you EVEN OWN a copy of VAN HALEN I ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
It's a cover tune, you DOLT. Don't waste my time and yours by trying to argue about a subject you OBVIOUSLY have NO knowledge of.

DAVE OR THE GRAVE BABY!!!!

[DrGrafenberg]

Luckily I don't know what it's like to be one but I know how to spot one, they all wear this button...

[TongueNGroove]

I don't give a damn if it's a cover tune he still sings it and LOVES it. That makes it even worse, he WISHES he wrote it.

Ok here is one picked at random since you can pic almost any DLR song and the lyrics are convaluted and retarded.

Ow!

(Adlib jungle sounds)

Ow!
Ooh yeah!
Oh yeah!

You can't get romantic on a subway line
Conductor don't like it, says, "You're wastin' your time"

But everybody wants some!
I want some too
Everybody wants some!
Baby, how 'bout you?

Oh! Oh yeah!

(Vocal Adlib) I took a mobile light, lookin' for a moonbeam. Ow!
Yeah, ya stand in line ya got lost in a jet stream WTF is this?

Ooh, everybody wants some!
I want some too (Oh yeah)
Everybody wants some!
How about you?

Ohhhh yeah
Ooooh yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

(Guitar solo)

Everybody wants some!
I want some too! Whoa!
Everybody wants some! Hey, hey!
How 'bout you?

Yeah!

(Adlib jungle sounds)

Woo! Where'd you get that shit?
Oh, yeah
I like....
I like the little way the line runs up the back of the stockings
I've always liked those kind of high heels, too, ya know I...
No, no, no, no don't take 'em off. Don't take...leave 'em on
Yeah, that's it...a little more to the right

Ow! Hey, hey, hey!
Everybody wants some!
I want some too. Whoa!
Everybody wants some!
Baby how 'bout you? Yeah!

Everybody wants some!
Everybody wants some!
Everybody wants some!
Everybody needs some!

Ah yeah!
Ahhh yeah!

Look, I'll pay ya for it, what the fuck?


Most of his shit is Ohhh's and Yeaaa's and Hey's. What lyrics he does actually input are just mumbo jumbo or boring.

But to be honest I never liked Van Halen or Van Hagar because of their oustanding lyrics, it's the Music baby, yeah!

Somewhere,lost it in a turn
Now Trouble seems to fit him like a glove.
First come,First served,he's serving it back,
Travels light,without a pack,without love.
He comes from nowhere,returns on his own,
Before they hanged him,yes he's heading for the moon
Hang `em High.
Leather,across his thighs,
Blasting out the night,his pair of nitrous eyes.
One eye on the road, price upon his head,
One ear to the ground,he's listening to the dead.
He comes from nowhere,returns on his own,
Before they hanged him,yes he's heading for the moon
Hang `em High.
Alone to himself,he's laughing up his sleeve,
Looking back in anger,the city is releved.
Vision of Light,
Child of the night,
Passing by

I don't know what I been livin' on but it's
Not enough to fill me up
I need more than just words can say
I need everything this life can give me
Come on baby close your eyes let go
This can be everything we've dreamed
It's not work, that makes it work no
Let the magic do the work for you
Chorus 1:
Cause something reached out and touched me
Now I see that all I want...
Chorus 2:
I want the best of both worlds
And baby I know what it's worth
We can have have the best of both worlds a little
Heaven right here on earth There's a picture in the gallery of a
Fallen angel looked alot like you
We forget where we come from sometimes
I had a dream it was really you
Chorus 1
Chorus 2
Solo
You don't have to die to go to heaven
Or hang around to be born again
Just tune into what this place has got to offer
Cause we may never be here again
Chorus 2

CHEESE CITY JUNIOR!!! A pack of KRAFT singles has less DAIRY product in it than this HALLMARK moment. Just because you don't UNDERSTAND DAVEs lyrics doesn't mean their not stellar. But don't feel bad ridge-runner, EVH never understood 'em either!!!!
Do yourself a favor. Since its OBVIOUS that your a Van Hagar SHEEP, go out TODAY and buy the 6-PACK and learn for yourself that
DAVID LEE ROTH IS VAN HALEN!!!!

And, just to further dispell this "myth" that DAVE isn't a "good" lyrics writer, lets turn to the IDOL of the SHEEP...one EVH.
On DAVEs lyrics.....
EVH: "Working with DAVE was NEVER a problem, okay? He's a creative guy."
EVH on Spammys lyrics:
EVH:"Wham! Bam! Hot damn? AMSTERDAM?" What the FUCK is that!"

This is what caused the FRICTION between EVH and Spammy, the issue of Spams POOR lyrics. EVH wanted Spam to work WITH OUTSIDE WRITERS,i.e. DESMOND CHILD!!!!

EVH on DAVE: "You can't have someone write lyrics for DAVE. It just doesn't work that way."

Know what your talking about BEFORE you bother to respond, or you will simply become as much as a joke as Spammys writing skills.
This concludes your lesson for the day, Son.
