hedunadan: 30 Songs Van Halen

hedunadan 11.09.15	wait for it please, i pressed the wrong button again
romulanrancor 11.09.15	i love the debut so much, need to check out more VH running with the devil is probs my favourite VH song
Titan 11.09.15	Little Dreamer, Hear About It Later, Dance The Night Away, and Light Up The Sky are probably my tops VH in random order.......band gets very little love around here great list
danielcardoso 11.09.15	Band gets very little love around here [2], the Dave era at least. The first 6 albums are all excellent. Women In Love..., Dance The Night Away, In A Simple Rhyme, Everybody Wants Some and Sinner's Swing are some of my favorites from the ones you didn't pick. Props for 6, 12, 15 and 23, underrated tunes.
Sabrutin 11.09.15	I'd personally add more songs from WaCF and Fair Warning. The last album has some surprisingly awesome moments too. Always cool to see people giving some love to 5150.
Titan 11.09.15	in that case, where is why cant this be love? still love that damn song
hedunadan 11.09.15	WACF and FW are both amazing records. I had And The Cradle will Rock, Everybody Wants Some, Romeo Delight, Take Your Whiskey Home, Loss of Control and In a Simple Rhyme from WACF, and Sinner´s Swing and Push Come to Shove from FW in consideration, but i had to clear them for others. 5150 is a miracle of an album. Yes, it was not aw raw as Diamond Dave´s VH, but the Van Hagar was a clever collaboration and you can feel right away how well they clicked with Sammy. As for Why Can´t This Be Love, i like much more Get Up, Best of Both Worlds and Love Walks In.
hedunadan 11.09.15	DKOT had some contenders: She is a Woman, You and Your Blues and Big River. But they didn´t make it.
danielcardoso 11.09.15	Yeah, You And Your Blues, Big River and Blood And Fire were pretty stellar from that comeback album.
Sabrutin 11.09.15	Fair enough. I really love China Town from the last album.
Source 11.09.15	Unchained = 1
Jethro42 11.09.15	I mostly heard the songs that play at the radio. I know their two debut albums + 1984 well though.
Jethro42 11.09.15	where is why cant this be love?[2]
wham49 11.10.15	should of stopped after the first 15 like it was earlier today, through 19 is fine the rest is not VH
Artuma 11.10.15	"Band gets very little love around here" rightfully so
danielcardoso 11.10.15	Ahah, didn't figure Why Can't This Be Love would get so much love from you guys. Pretty boring track all in all, for me at least.
wham49 11.10.15	this band should get love, knowing all the hair band freaks around here, every front man from those bands tried to copy Dave, they bridged the gap from old 70's hard rock to the new thing happening on the strip, for better or worse, but the original line up was a kickass, fun time band
danielcardoso 11.10.15	Definitely, unfortunately they influenced a decade of horrible, unbearable (in my opinion) glam metal, a mere couple of exceptions aside, but they had a great sound and produced a handful of excellent albums.
wham49 11.10.15	agree, they could not help who they influenced, but THEY were so much difference
hedunadan 11.10.15	The thing is, VH was both fun and loose and wizardly well crafted at the same time, and i am not talking just about the guitar. The rhythm section is one of the greatest ever, a perfect example of how to build one. the Michael´s backing vocals were mind-blowing, and the frontman figure was rewritten after Dave.
Titan 11.10.15	Anthony's backing vocals are the best EVER hands down and Alex is a phenomenal drummer. Every original member of this band did more than carry their own weight.
hedunadan 11.10.15	Michael Anthony, one of the most underrated collaborators ever.
danielcardoso 11.10.15	To me, Alex was always a relatively unimpressive drummer, save for GOT IT BAD, GOT IT BAD, GOT IT BAD, I'M HOT FOR TEACHER!
brainmelter 11.10.15	nice list, I owe it to Van Halen for wanting to pick up a guitar when I was 12
hedunadan 11.10.15	You don´t need to be crazy wild Moon drummer, or a scientist math peart drummer to be good. Alex always played as the backbone any drums should be. Great timing, awesome endurance (in Live Without a Net he double bassed the whole time, impressive), pretty tasteful and signature chops and did you hear about the "brown sound"? Well, that was the sound Alex, and not Eddie, has crafted. That talks about his sound sensibility. Listen to the drumming on this songs in order to realize how good he was: I´m The One, Light Up The Sky, Loss of Control, Push Come to Shove, Secrets, Dancing in The Street, I´ll Wait, 5150, Pleasure Dome and Aftershock.
