Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love is an alright song, cheesy as fuck though like all of their music

song about a slut being used thats kind of empathetic to her
Bijelo Dugme wrote the best Van Halen song
[spoiler]it's heavily inspired by Jump[/spoiler]

Everybody Wants Some is their only good song.
Another band that would be nowhere without image.

All of their music is childish and kinda annoying.

the Minutemen cover is better

They're smarter than people give them credit for. Everyone acts like they're just butt-rock, but to me the delivery has always come across as a bit tongue-in-cheek

Mah nigga.' That's my favorite Halen album.
I found new respect for Eddie Van Halen when I read an interview where he said he was inspired when he saw Genesis in the mid '70s and had his skull blown off by Hackett and his fret tapping technique.
I just thought that was really cool, and I learned something about where that all came from.

what image?
the only one that was good looking was DLR
They were basically the first 80s good time hard rock/proto hair band band and EVH was like the 2nd coming of Jimi Hendrix.
Anyone feel like me that Jaimie"s cryin' is the coolest VH song?
