Can't get this stuff any more....Dave's Best

[Vivian Campbell]

After "Unchained," this is my favorite song. The blistering passion and purpose in Dave's lyrics and vocals are truly poetic. Dave knew that Eddie Van Broken Hip and Amsterdam Ape were going to pull some kind of shit and what do you know, we got it - Van Halen 3. If this is the last song, so be it. I'm glad the lasting impression Dave left on Van Halen is that of the mighty legend returning to settle score for the last time.

“Don’t need so much to remember, that’s how it is when you tell the truth!” - Greatest line in a VH song.

Poetic and prophetic.

Where can I find the lyrics for "Can't Get This Stuff No More" and "Me Wise Magic"? They didn't include it in BOV1. In fact, they didn't include much in that package -- not even a picture of the band!

For what now is an obvious reason - they didn't PLAN on the then current band going much further, apparently.

Just do a google for "rock lyrics", you'll come across 5000 sites that'll probably have them. Better yet, just listen to the songs again!

when i heard CGTSNM for the 1st time i remember
the phrase " keep that in mind,when we say goodbye,you can't get that stuff no more"
i knew...i knew dave was talkin bout VH but i wasn't sure cause i thought they were reuniting.-
but " that stuff" was the original lineup chemistry to me.

If you go over to the "official" band website..... van-halen.com and click on the music icon. Go over to the BOV1 cover and it will give you the track listing. Go down to the song and click on the little lyrics icon. Every song on the album has the lyrics icon. some even have the little short audio clips.

Thanks! Was excited to find video clips as well, including clips of Classic Van Halen. They even had a clip of the "Pretty Woman" video, which was pretty cool. It was especially good to see because the one VH video collection that I've seen only has the 3 videos from "1984" -- the rest is Van Hagar stuff.

Are the earlier videos available anywhere else?

if thats true that dave was "speaking to the fans" in Cant Get this stuff NO MORE, than that is further proof that even he knew he was not back in the band since you cant get this stuff (VH) no more

What he was saying, lad, was that he was HIP to the scam the Sisters where trying to pull on him. Read "CRAZY FROM THE HEAT" to get an idea of "what DAVE knew". He could see that they were trying to use him, and that his LOVE for CLASSIC VAN HALEN blinded him to their true intent. Really, that's it in a nutshell.

Ahhh! A rookie accusing me of being a sheep? This is not a fight you want to pick. I've been around since before this site went awol. Search for my posts and ye shall see the path to enlightenment. "Assumptions are the mother of all F*ckups"!

how great does this song sound now?? especially after reading about edward's meltdown on stage? maybe we WILL be able to get some more of that stuff!

[Bad Muthafucker]

and personally, i prefer CGTSNM to Me Wise Magic. i think it was more of a dig at the sisters, and i really like dave's singing alot more on it!

[Calderone]

" "dave never says what this stuff is about that you can't get no more" "

ya see...ed's a tool !!!!!!
a moron !!!!!

Dave shitted him on his own face

[Parnelly]

It might be just me but Cant get this stuff no more and me wise are fucking great and sound alot like certain song on 1984. Top Jimmy? Girls Gone Bad? If you ask me its like there never was a sammy era when those 2 songs came. That they picked up where they left off. And anybody who has read crazy from the heat would know its Eddys fault for the demise of the original mighty Van Halen. Dave was set up and thats all their is to it. If you listen to the tabloids you get a totally different (Eddy) Version of the story. Either way what could have been the biggest come backs of all time is gone. All though the music was amazing and more than likely could very well be again. I would hope that Dave did it on his terms and fuck ed the rest of the people that follow him around and call themselves a band. Or not at all. Its all Dave always was and always will be. And i hope he milks those cocksuckers for everything they got and everything Dave deserves.

Dave or the grave mother
fuckers.
