    Damn I love this song!!! If this had come out back in the day it definitely would have been the soundtrack to waaayyy too many Fridays, skipping school and heading to the lake with a cooler full of beer!

    when you've tattooed every Dave lyric into your brain and sung 'em all too 'til the cows come home, I guess it's a little easier to predict him and focus.
    But I reckon i'm only 75% right. Dave never gives it to you CLEAR like all cool blues vocalists. (I too have been singing "Swamp meat salad, trans land fat, mousse swell to yum swell in the time it takes to get that new cat too. Cat too, Cat too. Sexy drunken legend. Cat too, cat too. So damn autobiographic!")

    I love this tune, and Dave sounds fantastic. Same with Stay Frosty. Man, I can't wait to hear the rest of the record. It bums me out to think of what might have been had Sammy not eneterd the picture, but as Dave would say...."That's Life." I just can't believe the wait is over. I'm beside myself!!!

    Finally heard the full track for "Blood and Fire." HOLY FUCK! (I *never* say that.) 28 FUCKIN' YEARS!!! When the bridge came in, Dave started rappin', and then Ed just TEARS IT... I cried. I literally shed tears. HOLY FUCKING WOW, man.

    Thank you, soooooo much Van Halen. This is like audio sunshine for the person that has been shunned for decades. I don't know if I can listen to it again until this all finally sinks in.

    Holy freakin' fuck.

    2nd lyrics... now that i've heard the FULL track (I just love lyrics!!)

    Forgotten empires
    Lost victories long past
    Everytime I’ve bloomed again
    I thought I was the last
    And then something crazy happened
    And Boom!
    I’m doing the victory dance

    Told you I was coming back!

    Say it like you mean it

    Repeat 1st verse

    WE CAME THROUGH BLOOD AND FIRE!!

    i'm beginning to understand how 'tattoo' might work thematically in all this...genius song, that first one.

    aint listening to one more internet leak. i'll wait till i can sit on my couch in the studio and blast it from start to finish with the cover art in my hands.

    Same with me. I've just listened to the whole track on VH Radio and it's completety different animal than the preview. My theory is that they keep using the worst parts of the songs to promote the album. Strange strategy...

    BTW, at 2:00 the track becomes... I don't know... BEAUTIFUL - it's the only word I can find.

    Prefer to hear the new album in it's entirety (duh) but I can't resist the snippets.
