    BOBW sales will be hurt because all discs are defective

    The song "Finish What You Started" abruptly cuts out. This is not a single edit either it is a defect on the disc!! Looks like Warner Brothers is about to recall a lot of CDs.

    Now that is a true tragedy. And one of the few Van Hagar songs that's actually listenable, too. Couldn't they have fucked up "When It's " instead?

    Wonder if the Dutchmen fucked it up on purpose like they did RWTD on the last greatest hits album?

      I heard about this RWTD thing.
      What exactly is different with the BOV1 version?

        For some unexplained reason, they chopped the entire second verse out of the song, and then pasted it back on the end. So it goes first verse - chorus - solo - third verse - chorus - second verse.

        Now the lyrics to the second and third verses are the same of course, but Dave sings them differently. So a true fan would notice the switch right away. Not to mention the solo being out of place. But the even more obvious edit is where Alex kicks in the drums on the final chorus - which is now cut off in the middle where the second verse is pasted in - then resumed after the second chorus morphs back into the last half of the final chorus.

        Pretty fucking retarded, huh?

            Reportedly this was only in the first pressing of BOV 1, so your copy may or may not have it.

            Gives me a great idea for a poll in "songs & albums" though

                  Yeah...I sometimes think they do this crap on purpose.

                    lol....I guess 'Finish What Ya Started' never 'Finished What It Started'.

                    Which brings me to something that just occured to me....

                    I think that the VH Bros. did this 'Song Screw Up' for both albums on purpose, just to create a media buzz about the new album.


                    Now if Dave were there, guaranteed that there would be no 'Song Screw Ups' as media eye catchers. Dave never needed to stoop to that level of P.R. while he was in VH.

                    Guess that what happens when you replace the lead singer/P.R. Guy with the drummer/brother of the guitarist that THINX he can do the same job.

                    Alex sucks as a P.R. guy.....bring back DAVE

                      Is there a way to make all of the Van Gaybar songs abruptly stop?

                          Those are coasters? I thought those were the actual cd's that you could use for coasters, since the WB warehouse had so many copies that wouldn't sell.

                            Did you photoshop that?
                            Very funny.
                            Good work.
