God this song is bitching.
Sounds like the old Van Halen I fucking love! This is what I wish was released as the single over "Tattoo"!Still waiting for a relevant Browns Team -
I like this one better than the original demo version! It sounds pretty much the same (besides the lyrics), but with subtle differences here and there. I've always loved this song since the first time I heard it around '99, when I first joined the VH online community, and I'm overjoyed that they finally put this on an album (should've at the very least been on DD in the place of one of those covers.) Incidentally, I started out as "Big Trouble '77" on all of the various VH forums at the time, and I still have that username at the stinks, although I quit posting there a LONG fucking time ago.Last edited by Little Texan; 01-31-2012, 10:20 PM.Comment

I may be crazy and obviously this a rework of an old, in my opinion classic unreleased tune....but the chorus to me has such a 70's feel to it......love it.Comment

Kicks Ass. And I agree with Little Texan. Better first single. Let them double down on the "reworked tune" crap but Dave and the Band are just the perfect mix here. Dave's Voice is great, long held clear notes with no Solo Vibrato. Mix of the Old and the New.
Lyrics of course are stellar: "Listen to a Sea-Shell; you can hear all of the sea....Listen to a Beer Glass....."
Would have been better received by the casual fan base than "Tattoo". I can see already by the solo breakdown that this might be one of my favorite songs off the album. This more than any other sample so far says: "This is Van Halen."
Most Classic Dave in "Normal" voice re-creating his screams. Same Timbre and notes....although an octave down....classic tone in a great sounding normal (with no "curdle") voice. May have been the last track they recorded giving hope for the new album. Almost sounds like Ted Templeman produced this one. Excellent.
But what the hell do I know....I am not in show business anymore.
Overall these are extremely talented folks in this band.
Which is why I am an Fan.Last edited by SunisinuS; 01-31-2012, 11:01 PM. Reason: Wolfgang sounds great here also btw.....his bass with his Uncle sounds perfect.Can't Control your Future.

This just in: Big River has moved into the top spot as my favorite song on the disk. Everything about screams VAN HALEN! Love Dave's "Look out - UH!" which is more Van Halen right there in one little display of rock and roll attitude than anything Spam ever did with the band.My karma just ran over your dogma.Comment
