    Ever notice that all Van Hagar songs sound the same?

    It seems like all Van Hagar songs sound the same and are indistinguishable from each other. They all have the same whiny mono tone high pitched yelping from Fagar, virtually identical sounding guitar riffs from Ed, about the same "too slow to really rock" tempo, and the same generic, "I want to be played on the radio at any cost" sound. Anyone else here agree?

    Well...if they want to be played on the radio...they aren't doing such a good job...

    Of course...I've lost all respect to our rock station here in Raleigh...normally a Roth staple....I heard...yeah...you are hearing this right...I heard..."Feel's Good"...Feel So Good...whatever the fuck it's called...as the end of a "Van Halen" Rock block...

    morons...
    "Van Halen was one of the most hallelujah, tailgate, backyard, BBQ, arrive four hours early to the gig just for the parking lot bands. And still to this day is. It's an attitude. I think it's a spirit more than anything else is."

          I can't say I agree. I don't like Van Hagar but I don't think their songs all sound the same. Sure you can regognise the band right away but that's different.

            You're right theres the "Honey I'm so sorry" type songs and the "Honey I wanna make a commitment" type songs. Then theres the wanna be hard rockers to show how edgy they all are.

              What I think is the most funny aspect of Van Hagar is that they were STILL doing love ballads in 1995 even though that shit was well out of style by then.

                          Spammy's instantly annoying vocal style is a constant. So yeah, I would agree that they all sound similar. I really avoid listening to them, as I tend to start smashing innocent objects.

                            If a Spammy song came on while driving I'd probably drive off the side of the road hoping the impact would give me short term amnesia, so i wouldnt remember hearing it!
