The Official Van Halen, "Tattoo" review thread.

[vh rides again]

I've had a couple days to get used to it and let the lyrics sink in.

I like the way the words flow, it's really catchy if you ask me.

Hey they all can't melt your face off and god damnit Dave is singing this song like a mother fucker.

It's a good song, they did a good job.

[Vinnie Velvet]

Mean Street ripped off from "Voodoo Queen"

SAVE ME SAMMY!!!!

Think about this one:

Down in Flames was already ripped off before Tattoo-- way back in 1979 to be exact.

Hey Sambo, you never told me that, chicken fucker!

[DLR Bridge]

Sammy wrote his preachy Mine All Mine gibberish all over Dave's 1984 sword dance music.

[Hardrock69]

HOLY CRAP!

NUMBER ONE??!?!?!?!?!????

WOOHOO!!!!!

Haha....fucking Cheddarheads are all pissed off now, lol.

[Douglas T.]

I see no problem with them dusting off, polishing and releasing the demo's!

[David Lee Rocks]

92.5 KZPS In Dallas played it yesterday, im pretty sure 97.1 The Eagle is playing it also

[BITEYOASS]

The Tattoo music video on YouTube has officially been viewed over 1+ MILLION times!

[Hardrock69]

I see no problem with them dusting off, polishing and releasing the demo's!

No shit. In fact, that is even BETTER in some ways than writing a new song....because it was written just before they blasted the collective minds of the entire music world in 1978!

I am fine with new music, but I much prefer the CLASSIC VAN HALEN SOUND!

So anyone who complains about this song and how or when it was written can go jump in a fire somewhere.

[Hardrock69]

Oh and FUCK STOLLING RONE MAGAZINE!

Those worthless fucking tools have not had anything relevant to say about the music industry for the past 30 fucking years!

They are just an advertising rag masquerading as a print media outlet that is pretending to be a music magazine.......they are a fucking fraud and have been for decades.

So I decided to go hunting on YouTube and get some facts:

Up For Breakfast: 5 vids totalling about 39K views
It's About Time: 4 vids totalling about 40K views
Learning To See: 4 vids totalling about 54K views

So lets say about 135K for all 3 of the above rubbish since 2004? - agreed?

NOW...
Tattoo: Didn't get past the first video COS IT's AT OVER 1 MILLION VIEWS ALREADY !! IN 2 DAYS
She's the Woman "Live" - 156K views - IN 4 DAYS

Numbers don't lie... seeya SPAM lovers, it's over... Van Halen are back..Roth is back...

Sorry I know this is the review thread.. so...

THE SONG ROCKS...PUTS A SMILE ON YOUR FACE.... THE END.

I was so pissed when I found out that Hang Em High was ripped off from a song called Last Night.

Where was Spammy back then to warn me!????

(sarcasm)

what up show stoppa? I dont care that hop isnt the hop on my boots, ya know...

[Mr Walker]

"when you stick your head above the crowd... someone's gonna throw a rock at it... i think it says that in the bible somewhere..."

I think that was a Daveism.

I saw someone comment that Ed and Al are using these old tracks with Dave so they can use their really grate new music with Sam in the future... I had a big belly laugh over that one.

I liked the song. I always thought there were either people desperate to love it or desperate to hate it. Its neither. Its no masterpiece, but its definitely not a bad song. I was hoping for more, but its catchy. And it has Dave looking as only as he can look. Cant complain.

[twonabomber]

I personally have no use for iTunes and no plans on installing, setting up payment option, etc for one damn song.

what he said...

friend of mine got an iPod Nano and i had to set it up for him. i found iTunes to be a pain in the ass. give me good ol' drag and drop, and i don't need a piece of software to manage my collection, i know where i put everything.
