The Official Van Halen, "You and your Blues" review thread.

[SNIPER]

This is one of my favorites!! Love the lyrics!

[VanHalener]

I left Outta Space and hitched a ride on this bad boy.

Sure hope the cops like this one, if they show up.

Fairfax, baby! Van Halen territory for you and your blues.

OWWWW!

[Golden AWe]

Aww...I cun't help it...it's really, really grown on me! Love this tune! Fuck Desmond Child!!!

[LW-Viper]

I like this song sounds like Very old van halen....and it kicks ass

[BenJammin]

I must say Dave really shows he still has some incredible power in his voice on the "Woman, you suffer from a color..." parts

I picture a mix of Robert Plant, Roger Daltry, and Joe Cocker standing behind the mic belting those parts out.

[Catfish]

Without question one of the best songs on the album! Every dude in the world can take this and apply it to their female counterpart! And the clever use of old blues standard song titles is brilliant! Got some classic-sounding background vocals, as well.

[Catfish]

I hear a little bit of "Sunburn" in the beginning vocals....... which is not a bad thing.

Yes it is.

[78/84 guy]

This is one of my favorites!! Love the lyrics!

Yep. Might be Dave's best lyric's on the album. I love that it comes up 3rd on the album. It doesn't get lost. Right away you go what is this ? Nice tune.

[Terry]

Gotta start giving this one some more spin-time, because it didn't make an impression on me as quickly as some of the other tunes did, so I've been subsequently skipping right from She's The Woman to Chinatown.

[Mr Walker]

I like this song more every single time I hear it... they really should push this one.

[Seshmeister]

This song should have been a single.

[SunisinuS]

This song should have been a single.

Should have been the first single. Then "As Is", Then "Blood and Fire" Then "Big River".

[IceCreamBlondie]

Should have been the first single. Then "As Is", Then "Blood and Fire" Then "Big River".

You got that right...I just love You and Your Blues, play it in the car all the time. Catchy as hell. That and Stay Frosty!!

[Zing!]

Should have been the first single. Then "As Is", Then "Blood and Fire" Then "Big River".

How they came up with 'Tattoo' and 'She's The Woman' as the first two singles is beyond me. Pretty much any other song on the disk would have put this album global (if it isn't already). 'You And Your Blues' is stunning.

Ahh but then "Stay Frosty" is one of those secret cuts that let's the pop world smile again...while we all find Honeybabysweetiedoll "Ruff Ruff".*



*See Russel.
