The New VH Song Opinion

[Bill Lumbergh]

Come on Five "just listen to it again, it's really good. It rocks so hard.........."


By the way I wonder Spammy IS IT ABOUT TIME? I don't think you said that enough.

[Golden AWe]

Fuck Van Hagar and this shit.

[smaz]

I haven't heard it yet. And from this thread, I assume that's a good thing.

Bill I just listened to it a third time. Almost everything Sammy does lyrically is in a circular motion. Its about time It's about time its prime time, big time were going to be big time , lay it on the line,.

Sammy's voice is just annoying.

You noticed in the first 3 sentences he says HELL YES!!!! He sounds so gay.

And what is this were going to make up for it? make up for what?

Bill when you have time read the chapter the engine room. Short chapter but real good. I read the book like 5 times but you know you forget stuff. I was going to make a thread about some chapters about the book.

The engine room is real good. I like Dave's attitude in that chapter.

New track is the worst piece of garbage I have ever heard. Not one thing works in it! The compositional structure is total crap, the words are like they were written by a 3rd grader, I’ve heard cats f—k with more harmony than the vocal track, and Eddie can't even play. That was some of the worse fretwork I have every hear this guy lay down. It also confirms my greatest fear, that Eddie living in a bottle, still doing 2+ packs a day of smokes, and totally destroying his health, also destroyed his guitarmanship. Sad, Eddie was one of the greatest guitarist ever, now he is a washed up hack and dying bum, defrauding his loyal fan base out of their hard-earned money. Very Painful – This band’s career is history!

Absomotherfuckinlutely !!!

"It's About Time" - Van Spammy, Review by GSlinger

New track is the worst piece of garbage I have ever heard. Not one thing works in it! The compositional structure is total crap, the words are like they were written by a 3rd grader, I’ve heard cats f—k with more harmony than the vocal track, and Eddie can't even play.

More or less in total agreement. As I said earlier, it is a PATHETIC attempt... this thing has ZERO legitimate commercial appeal.

If Dave put out something this gawd aweful, I'd say the exact same thing. Can't imagine that for the life of me, however.

Some are talking about listening multiple times, trying to find some sort of redeeming value in the tune... I gave it one listen and hope I'm never subjected to it again.

It is a disgrace to see the name Van Halen attached to this steaming pile of vile smelling sh*t.

Never thought I'd hear something worse than VHIII, but this takes the "prize". If Eddie thinks this is actually good, his own uninspired playing included, then he has last his mind. His signatue sound is completely gone, so maybe so...

Go ahead and force airplay CCC... this putrid pile will kill ticket sales, do nothing to move the con 2 disk set and perhaps ruin any future for ANY version of this band to come.

I truly can not believe just how bad the track is. Just imagine how terrible the lesser 2 tracks must be.

If Dave fronted this song:

He wouldn't have rhymed "time" with "time" 800 times!



Sammy always sucked but Eddie began to suck around Balance.
Seems to me the same time he cleaned up.

Eddie drunk & out of control = innovative

Eddie sober = God awful!

If this were Dave singing everyone here would be saying that it is the best thing that Van Halen has ever done. Same lyrics, beats, guitar, etc, it would rule...just like "Can't Get This Stuff No More." WAKE UP!!! DAVE IS NOT OR WILL NOT EVER BE IN VAN HALEN!!!!! And I'm a Dave die-hard.

Sorry, no die hard Dave fan says that shit.

[Other-defcon]

Dave would never sing this kind of song, he knows about to write songs, and more important : how to sing it .
However, this song sucks.

I downloaded this peice o crap last night which took 23 seconds. Once done I hit the play button and BOOM I was mesmerized, fuck that song was just kicking some serious freakin ass, I was just lovin it when all of a sudden I realized that I forgot to turn my speakers on, so carefully I prepared myself for the onslaught of shit. I got in my chair, strapped myself in and waited(like a kid who's just about to get his foreskin chopped) my wife had called the parmedics and told them to be on standby for a probable serious case of shock. And thats when it all happened that's when it hit me, smack dab in the face like a ton o' bricks spam gaygar through my speakers, never in a million years did I ever think that that would happen but it did. For a total of 40 seconds I cringed and held my head got my wife to put ear plugs into my ears but still that peice of crap was everywhere, my kids were crying, my wife was screaming in agony, I at this point was in complete shock, finally my eldest ran to my aid with a pillow on each side of his head to avoid any hearing loss and saved me and the family. 40 secs worth of crap 23 sec to download this shit, 63 seconds of my life I lost to that sorry excuse of a band and singer. Never again! Never again!
I'm still cleaning up the mess inside my study, and my head. So I guess you know how I feel about this song!
Fuck spam gaygar and all the little sheep who like this piece of crap!

My thread just got locked so I'm reposting this fucker in here:

I just listened to "It's About Time" 4 times (I know, I know, but it was all in the name of science) and can't believe how pathetic of an attempt this is from a band that once ruled the planet.

To all you Sammy supporters: this is the final kiss of death from your tequila whore. This song sucks worse than anything off of VH3 (How Many Say I is always the exception..that thing is the worst song ever written by a human not retarded). Gary Cherone thanks you Sammy Hagar!

And how about those deep, soulful lyrics? I'm sure those words will really resonate with intelligent music fans everywhere. You are a 57 year old multi millionaire with a working vocabulary that makes Mike Tyson look like Hunter S. Thompson!

Edward Van Halen! Please drop the guitar and step away from the instrument slowly. HOW MANY MORE OF YOUR OWN RIFFS WILL YOU? RECYCLE. I heard bits of Me Wise Magic and Without You all throughout this abortion. Don't you even know when you repeat yourself? Has your brain been so damaged through substance abuse that creativity is a thing of the past? Fucker..and where was the tuba? I didn't hear any fucking tuba!

Ohhhhhh, the "brown sound" is back the "brown sound." Bullshit, the only brown sound this song has is the cliche ridden crap spewing out of Sam's mouth.

CGTSNM and MWM were 100 times better than this and still only got moderate air play; It's About Time won't stay in rotation any longer than Without You and Fire In The Hole. Tell me who is going to take this fraud of a song seriously Sam fans? Who the fuck is actually going to get excited over this? What Program Director is going to spring a chunky over this song? Who are the target demographics? Kids are not going to dig this; nobody is going to "Seacrest Out" a Van Hagar song.

ED, Al, Sam, Fatty...take a bow boys, THIS FUCKING SONG SUCKS ON MULTIPLE LEVELS. The world waited 6 years for your mediocrity and will not wait another 6 for you to correct your mistake.

This is the last ride for Van Hagar. Thanks for burning down the house yourselves.

Mezro...listening to the DLR Band CD really, really loud

HAVE YOU HEARD HIS LAST SOLO ALBUM?? OR ME WISE MAGIC??

[Other-defcon]

MEZRO is absolutely right.
It's about time to open eyes and ears!
