Anyone Heard Van Hagar's Version Of Won't Get Fooled Again?

[janarak]

Once DLR left and I heard Why cunt this be love I have avoided Van Hager like the clap.
But one day a friend who new I was a big Who fan told me of it so I borrowed it from the internet.
Ed's guitar intro was a clever version of the original but the rest was shit,even the rest of Ed stuff was a rip off of a Van Halen cover band covering the who.

MEET THE OLD BOSS NOT THE SAME AS THE OLD BOSS.
I'LL GET ON MY KNEES PRAY THAT VAN HAGER GO AWAY.

Actually, it's the exact same performance if you can put yourself through the pain of listening closely. They just threw it on the so called "live album", mixed the crowd noise in, and the sheep didn't know the difference.

Not that Van Hagar was the first band to do that, or probably the last, but it figures that a cheesy band would do such a cheesy thing, in full on cheese style.

Oh the irony of that title choice by VAN HAGAR!

It's an abortion, plain and simple.

I have lost disc 2 of RHRN, where that song resides, but I remember listening to it and thinking it was not all that it should have been. Sammy's scream wasn't as powerful as Roger's. In fact, it wasn't even in the same universe. There was no power at all. Alex was playing a straight-ahead, boring beat. That song was his chance to really shine, and he blew it. Ed's guitar work was good, but the rest of the song is totally lacking. That version of the song was like a bunch of studio musicians getting together to create a slick, polished WGFA. That's how I remember it, anyway.

The original Who version is beyond "classic."

Yep! Who the hell could shine on drums as compared to Keith Moon??
