Do you think that Van Hagar's Up For Breakfast ripped off ZZ Top's Cheap Sunglasses?

[DLR_EngineRoom]

I personally wouldn't put anything past Spammy OR the VH Bros., what do you think?

I'd love to post on this, but I've only listened to that piece of trash UP FOR BREAKFAST twice...and it's definitely not a catchy tune because I don't even remember how it goes!

CHEAP SUNGLASSES, on the other hand, is a classic! So, obviously, they don't have that in common.

I am proud to say I have never heard "Up For Breakfast," so I cannot vote.


The only new POS song I heard "It's About Time" once, the DJ's said they thought it was great, then they took some calls. After 6 "it sucks" calls they said, "well let's move on, we don't want to talk all morning about how the new song sucks."

haha...I hear you guys.....all are valid responses....keep 'em comin' for all those that apply....

Actually, one similarity is that Sammy now looks like the oldest member of ZZ Top, but fatter.

If you can stand it, give it another listen to...

BTW, ZZ Top kicks Van Hagar's fatasses.

I wouldn't put it past Spammy or the Van Halen bros to steal material.
So much for Ed for having 10 albums of songs/material.

For crying OUT LOUD!!! I could write a better VH tune than "It's about time"!!! Those fuckin' morons(AL, ED, SAM, and MIKE) should get their fuckin' asses kicked for what they've done...

I too am proud to say that I've only heard "It's About Time" of the three new songs. Nevertheless I voted for the first option anyway.

Here are examples of Hagar stealing in the past:

Twice in "Feels So Good"--first the "I'll send a message in a bottle" line which he ripped of Sting, and then the "Feels so good, feels so nice" bit which is a rip-off of James Brown. Hell the album cover is a blatant rip-off of "With The Beatles."

Then "Spanked"--"all you bad bad boys get on the spank line" or whatever the fuck he's singing--that's a rip-off of the song "Bad Boys Get Spanked" by the Pretenders.

That's so original too. "rock, they call us sheep!" "I know, poop boy...let's call them goats!" "Yeah...that's original enough! Hee hee." "Ohh poop boy...I love it when you touch me there!"...(ugh, too much sheep detail)

BTW, it's funny that Prince sings pretty much about nothing except for fucking and sucking women. And you consider this a gay thing, huh? I guess I can see how you'd consider fucking and sucking women "gay".

Loser.

I heard the fucking thing once, and it's so forgettable(like all Van Hagar tunes) I can't remember one note. However, I vote that they stole it.
