    y'know... I hear a bit of zakk wylde just before the clip ends with that sick harmonic! Like it. Has EVH been in some way influenced by those he's influenced?

        C'mon Pal get with it. Back to class with you.

        No way is it sampled. The whole song vocally sounds almost exactly like Elephant Gun mixed with Shyboy...then merged with Fair Warning.

        Dave's vocals are just badass. Better than I ever would have believed. Awesome. I'm amazed at this song.
        I agree, Dave sounds fucking great, and yes, better than, I think, anyone expected, this is just PURE classic Van Halen. Killing intro!!
        I had some crazy vision, one I can't deny it
        It said "Open your eyes. Leave it all behind."

          Always admired your fight, admiring the fact you admitting you were totally wrong !
          If this shit is affecting (former) stubborn dude like you, then the war really has been won.
          Let me be the first to say, Goood Onya BOF !!
          G'Day Mark.

          Whatever Dave did to improve his voice I don't know. But he hasn't souned this good since 1991. No matter the reason, these songs kick ass like I never expected.

          No matter all the bickering, fighting, insults and back and forth of DLR Army members over the years....we've all been here for the same reason: Because VH is the greatest rock 'n' roll band in the history of the world, and DLR is the greatest frontman in the history of the world.

          Everyone else is a distance second. Period.

              Holy Fuck Nut ...

              Just like I've always said, I never had a doubt that without Diamond, it's just not VH


              This cd is gonna fuckin' rock and remind evryone that Diamond David Lee Roth is the greatest frontman who ever graced a band.

              PERI-FUCKIN-ID !

                  PS. Calderone is right.

                  Dave doesnt "Whooo!" like that anymore.

                  Did I just type that? Ha!

                          This song is a straight up killer hard rock song.
