MICHAEL ANTHONY Says He Can Pull Off Lead Vocals On Any Classic VAN HALEN Song

[WARF]

All I can say is if Michael Anthony became the lead singer of Van Halen in 1985 as a trio, I still would have bought every album.

The lyrics would have been on par with fatso's lyrics... no one in VH can write a lick of words other than Dave.

[Grit]

Started a thread with this once before, but can't find it. Mike does alright, but his natural register is not necessarily suitable for pulling of a baritone.

That does not sound very good to me. Stay with the back-ups Michael unless you want to sing Van Hagar material, then I could care less, go for it!

[BITEYOASS]

Here is the real reason why Mikey is not in =VH= anymore, and I can't believe I have to keep posting this fuckin' video!

Now let's move the fuck on!

[ThatGuy1]

Dave can't sing any VH songs. Get Mikey, get anyone!

[ThatGuy1]

Sobolewski didn't do so bad on the VDIII tour.....

but let's face facts here, he didn't write those songs, so for him to play them with anybody else (ESPECIALLY Hagar) is entirely wrong. If he wants to make peace with Eddie, and come back to the band, I'll bet Dave would let him sing a song or two.

Dude look at the album notes it says THIS "All songs written by Eddie Van Halen, Alex Van Halen, Michael Anthony and David Lee Roth, except where noted."
He did write that song. DLR fans.. geez.

[FORD]

Yeah.... sure he did. And Sid Vicious wrote all the Sex Pistols songs too....

[DONNIEP]

Yeah.... sure he did. And Sid Vicious wrote all the Sex Pistols songs too....

He could write?

[Nickdfresh]

No. He was a "coat hanger" with a bass...

[FORD]

Sid was an awesome bass player.... in a train wreck sort of way.....

[DONNIEP]

Well, he couldn't have been any worse of a bass player than Nikki Sixx.

And honestly, is that the stupidest fucking name ever or what? Nikki Sixx. Sounds like one of the Chinese fuck dolls I sell...

[Nitro Express]

I never even heard of Motley Crue until I saw them at the US Festival in 100 degree heat. Nikki was on these big ass platform shoes. He had makeup. I like thinking ok, clearly inspired by KISS but they are doing something different here.

He claims the name was inspired by his driver's license, where the first two characters were "N6."
