My favorite track off the new Lp from the 90 second samples along with Chinatown and Stay Frosty. The riff and melody of this track is so Van Halen...classic stuff
The pre chorus and chorus are incredible
Eat Us and Smile!
Alright!!! Lemme' se yo hands!!
Longer version
Interesting that VanHalen twitter account retweeted TwitterMusic:
EXCLUSIVE: Check out this clip of @VanHalen's "You and Your Blues"! Their new album is out next week! #VHcountdown
with a title like "you and your blues i was hoping to hear dave play some bluesy harmonica licks ......
Seriously---Song is bad ass and backing vocals lack nothing......
I like it. I like it a lot!
WE'RE ON A MISSION FROM ROTH.
My second favorite, After Chinatown. I'm really liking the tone Edwards trying on this stuff. Liking Dave's voice more and more.
The music sounds like a Van Hagar leftover from the Balance era, and Dave, yet again, works his lyrical magic on a leftover Hagar era tune. Makes you wonder what Dave could've done with all of the better riffs of the Hagar years that Sam totally ruined with his shit lyrics and grating voice. I think this is what 90's Van HALEN would've sounded like had Dave never left.

I have a feeling this song is going to be one of the best on the album...but man...thats a pretty tall order!!! Theyre all killer. When is the last time that you bought an album by anyone, where every track was great? If you have, I wanna know what it is. Imagine how Sammy Hagar must really feel after hearing this new music...LOL Only a moron like Hagar would be stupid enough to publicly say that this music is bland. I guess after rolling up his bright red and yellow sleeves and writing his super inspired tunes for Chickensoup, aaaand being all proud of it, then hearing this new VH...its gotta sting a bit. LOL Oh well Sammy, youve always got your birthday to look forward to...
I love the lyrics in this one. Really makes the song better. This one is now in my top 5 off this cd.
When I first heard the 30 sec sample it was my least favorite. But holy shit it rocks. The hooks in this are epic VH.
love this one..first track i played twice
I've heard the entire album many times now, and I would have to say this is one of my early favorites.
I love Daves voice here!
I'm being critical - I must say the rest of the song doesn't live up to the chorus and the pre-chorus. At least yet. The rest of the song sounds too Van Hagar to me, so far. Not saying this is a bad song overall, but not as good as the better ones on the album!

This is a great song. The way Dave sings it along with the killer lyrics gives me the chills. This one goes out to my x wife and her blue twat. HA!
Don't hate me for this...but I still think this song has great parts, but I would've needed a Desmond Child to put it all together to make it a perfect pop rock hit...It still doesn't give me the kicks 100% as a whole song. Now does Van Halen need a Desmond Child hit? No! But it had more elements than it actually puts up.
Anybody else hear 'Saturday Night Special' hiding in here?
No, but this song kicks ass and could be a single...
Very Catchy vocals and Anthony-esque backing vocals...
This song reminds me of V A N H A L E N I I
kILLER!
I have a new favorite song.
This song is incredible, I fucking love it.
The new, on fire.

Dedicated to Every Woman I Ever Met.
And I hate "Blues" as much as every Rocker hates Punks.
Now Soul this Has.
I love how he makes fun of almost every English "Rock" band that has invaded our shores....along with home grown yanks.
I now know why Ed likes this particular style of "Chug", he is creating overtones on each 16th that are whole chords in each note change. The Phrasing for me is very well done, as opposed to others. I hear colors in this one. Not only because of the obvious reference.
And this is obviously a Dave "Blues" song talking about how he cannot find one that understand's him (why can't she just like everything I do?!?), hehe.
I agree with Elvis....this would be a great single. The Harmonies just scream. Power Harmonies. Beach Boys meet Red Meat. They used to say that King's X was Turbo-Beatles. Dave brings a Wall of Sound back to Van Halen here Over his singing.
Turbo-Beach Boys.
The Colors stand out. Red House over 'yonder. Moonlight. Ain't gonna dust, no broom. No More growing God Dependent (Rainbow). Dave's reach back to: "That's When Push Comes to Shove".
Way Deeper cut with a hook that I didn't expect because of wanting to start to cringe if Dave does the "Curdle Voice@tm".
But the band got rid of "me and my blues" on this cut. And Ross should be proud of how he mixed this. Especially the one line from Dave.....(to be continued).
You can hear the Band not shrink from the past on this one.
Eddie, Alex, Wofie, and Dave sound unafraid.
As it(s) should be.

Can't Control your Future. Can't Control your Friends. The women start to hike their skirts up. I didn't have a clue. That is when I kinda learned how to smile a lot. One Two Three Fouir fun ter thehr fuur.
you know i dig the "19th nervous breakdown" part.
a good, solid mid-tempo song. would fit well in the setlist as kind of a break for Al.
Writing In All Proper Case Takes Extra Time, Is Confusing To Read, And Is Completely Pointless.
What do you rail against with anger and fury when you are close to sixty and make a pretty comfortable living...
Yes, against your significant other who just can't stop with their drama.
I bet more than a few of us can relate.
Fucking brilliant Dave... brilliant.
Yes, the background vocals and lyrics are grate. But no single for this one. Take a fast one, or "Stay Frosty" next.
This is one of my favorites!! Love the lyrics!
I left Outta Space and hitched a ride on this bad boy.
Sure hope the cops like this one, if they show up.
Fairfax, baby! Van Halen territory for you and your blues.
OWWWW!
~Only you can prevent low volume~
Aww...I cun't help it...it's really, really grown on me! Love this tune! Fuck Desmond Child!!!
I like this song sounds like Very old van halen....and it kicks ass
I must say Dave really shows he still has some incredible power in his voice on the "Woman, you suffer from a color..." parts
I picture a mix of Robert Plant, Roger Daltry, and Joe Cocker standing behind the mic belting those parts out.
"Money can't buy poverty." -Marty Feldman
Without question one of the best songs on the album! Every dude in the world can take this and apply it to their female counterpart! And the clever use of old blues standard song titles is brilliant! Got some classic-sounding background vocals, as well.
Gotta start giving this one some more spin-time, because it didn't make an impression on me as quickly as some of the other tunes did, so I've been subsequently skipping right from She's The Woman to Chinatown.
Scramby eggs and bacon.
I like this song more every single time I hear it... they really should push this one.
