What's your vote and why?

Ya gotta say why, and I'll give it until next Sunday night for final judgement. Lead singer don't matter, as long as the song was a "VanHalen" song...

I am judge and jury. Don't like it? Start your own thread...

I'll tell you mine at the end.





Go...

Pick just one? Nonsense!!

Their first album is one of the greatest albums ever made, all the songs are great and you got eruption as well :adore:

I guess if I had to pick one song.. "I'm the one"

Unchained.

Brings back memories of blowing off school with a bunch of friends and breaking into my parents lake house drinking all their booze. Then stealing the keys and hanging out on their boat barefoot'n Lauderdale style.

Van Hagar voters will be hunted down and neutered so your seed cannot destroy the gene pool.
Sammy Solo ok Sammy with Halen :puke:

Little Guitars... Or Mean Street... Because it brings back the memories of all the bad things I did in High School listening to them...

Even though a cheeseburger played guitar on the track, my pick is "Everbody Wants Some."

Every music fan should have the first four Van Halen and first four Black Sabbath records in their collection.

My wife is a teacher. At our bowling night, I always play it on the jukebox, give her that "How YOU doin'???" look.

She then calls me an idiot. :notsure:

I wasn't even in Jr High when that came out. For me it conjures up memories of using a hairbrush as a microphone and jumping off the back off the couch in my own "music video"


"C'mon Dave... gimme a break!"

Definitely best guitar solo of all time, but I don't consider it a "song" per se...

(Yes, I know songs can be instrumental/sans lyrics)

Seemed a little hokey for VH, even with Hagar.

Do you know what "5150" was in reference to ? (softball question)
