obviously, this is the worst video of all time..........but where does it stack as worst song of all time........it wins in my book, no song can be as bad as sam trying to sing sexual inuendos while using that sickening supposed to be sexy voice
your take?

This has little to do with the topic, but last week I found an old Circus magazine that had a review of a Van Hagar concert in it. My favorite quote? "Van Halen is wonderbread metal....you know what you're geting before you open the package" HA..........actually I think that's being a bit generous. It should be something like "Van Hagar is like a used tampon.........it stinks, and no one wants anything to do with it." Oh and Finish What Ya Started is shit.........another lazy performance from the "band of vaginas"(even though many Roth fans cite this song as decent).

0U812 is by far the worst album of all time!

YEP!
You know, I'd say as Hagar albums go, OU812 is not the worst one. I'd say F.U.C.K. is much, much worse. But FINISH WHAT YA STARTED is a bag of rancid barf. It sounds like a fucking new country tune...Shania Twain would be happy singing it. And I'm sorry folks...but I'm not too fond of Shania, the Canadian export.
The song is just so godawful, I can't believe it's the same band that recorded SOMEBODY GET ME A DOCTOR, ROMEO DELIGHT or GIRL GONE BAD!!!

NO, really, I think it sucks. prick.
At least the production is better on FUCK. Not so thin and weak sounding, aside from the tunes.

I've heard many a Roth fan on this board say that Ed tears it up on this track. Maybe they were comparing it to "Big Bad Bill"................And now that I think about it "Balance" is probably worse than ou812.........although it really doesnt matter, it's like comparing brown shit with green.

Yes. I guess MAN ON A MISSION would also be worse.

It truly isn't the video that blows so much, the cancer is the "song" itself, IMO.
This thing never goes anywhere...it's the same riff, over and over. Where is the chorus ?
Simply singing "C'mon baby...ect." over the same riff as the verse is just plain lame.
I've put more thought into bowel movements.
I agree with Rikk, it's like some "new country" attempt...and it falls flat on it's simplistic and jingoistic ass.
Come on baby...let's go to Baskin Robbins...:rolleyes:
Yecchhh.

I have hated that song from the moment I heard it on the radio for the first time, and I mean HATED it with a passion. At first, I thought it was solo Sammy - the radio never announced it as being a Van Halen track back then, and I never bought OU812 for a good long time...at this point, I was pretty much avoiding any and all things Van Halen save for the David years (obviously), and of that, I'd made a mix tape that was keeping my tape deck in the car warm.
Years down the road, I found OU812 at a pawn shop, this being about 1992 or so, and decided on a whim to buy it, didn't look at the track listing...skimming through the CD in the car it came up and I damn near wrecked myself I was so pissed!
True story.
I STILL hate that fucking song!

do you think that van halen 3 is worst than balance or ou812?
No. I would venture to say that I even prefer Van Halen 3 to most of the Hagar stuff.

Interesting. I understand that a lot of people do not like Hagar material, but you knew it was Hagar when you bought it, so that can't be it. Why such a strong reaction to that particular song?
To hate something that much there is usually an underlying reason beyond simply poor lyrics. Care to tell that true story?

It's really just about that simple. I hated the song when I heard it on the radio, I thought it was low key, stupid, ignorant...really obnoxious...I felt much the same way about it as I did about Poison's "Every Rose Has it's Thorn" and Bon Jovi's "Wanted Dead or Alive", bands that I could mostly tolerate hearing otherwise. from time to time it's just a matter of a particular songs not sitting well with me.
The thing of it was, I always thought it was a solo Hagar track. It didn't sound anything like Van Halen, I wasn't watching MTV at all around 1987 to, say maybe 1993 or so, I wasn't reading Van Halen interviews in the magazines or anything else, so believe it or not, I really never knew that it was a Van Hagar track; I always made the assumption that it was a solo Hagar song from his 87 album.
Now, like I said, when I finally picked up OU812 at a pawn shop, I didn't even look at the track listing. I knew Feels So Good and When it's Love were on there, but really, that was it. I was MILITANT about avoiding ANYTHING Hagar related with Van Halen for quite a few years (I've tapered off significantly since then...but remind me to tell you the story of burning a Van Halen homemade oversized banner in the middle of the highway sometime).
I've just never liked the song at all, honestly, but you're correct, it's not really a Hagar thing at all, it's just that I hate the song! :)
Okay. I believe you. Sometimes I just get pissed and I am not even sure why. But then other songs trigger memories. I am somewhat of a memory collector. I like stories.
Now, about burning the banner in the middle of the highway? :Confused:
I may get a story yet!

During roy's set here on the DAVE/sam tour, he went into a speel about
being interrupted late at night by a phone call frm Ed while they were
on tour.
Some drivel about how Ed wanted him to here a riff he came up with.
He was all like "and when EDDIE VAN HALEN wants to play his geetar
for you, you put everything on HOLD"!:rolleyes:
Anyway, the nauseating waxation turned out to be about how roy had to listen to the riff and put his woman on hold, and that's how the song came about.
You shoulda seen all the retards on the short bus bleachers on stage
clapping like trained seals.
Arrrgh.
:dork: :mad2:
I think Hagar is full of crap. Not that anyone here cares what the song is about, but does anyone else believe Hagar's story?

Another mediocre EVH riff totaly RUINED by worthless Spammy lyrics. BORING the moment I heard it. OU812? COMPLETE SHIT. And I thought it couldn't get any worse after 5150. What a complete downward spiral Van Hagar has been on from the start. NO WONDER grunge came about!!!

You just said Sammy was hot, Fab. Sounds like a Pen comment to me. Chick, man...it matters not. Sheep are sheep. I mean, sheep reproduce, don't they? I mean, we all know cockvanhalen69 was asexually produced by his beast of a "mother". But you're sounding like a sheep to me.
Hey, didn't you see Van Hagar in Vegas?
Hmmmm.....

Ok Im going to try and find a positive angle to this.
Watch *ANY* Sammy / Van Hagar clip, now watch
any original Van Halen clip.
If you dont come through the comparison a reborn
Roth and Roller, you are a blind mofo !!!

This doesn't sit well with me as a moderator of the MAIN DISCUSSION on a DIAMOND DAVID LEE ROTH website.
Rikk is the man in charge and I live by Sheepherder Rikk's opinions. I just manage the land so to speak.
However, that statement sounds very much like a "Lost Sheep" poster nailed to a post?
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...............
What to do next? Let's call Guwapo and Bill and see? lol.
I mean, you can't just say "Sammy, I love you" on this site and expect to be not be in the Sheep pen. We all know from past forum experience that Fab has said Dave sucks and Sammy is awesome.
Discussions are underway.
