"...like lemmings to the sea,
we stumble through this lifetime and call it being free.
Ah, but knowing where you're going;
and what you're meant to be;
that's what freedom means to me."
Haven't heard that in a while, myself. Think I'll crank it tonight.
That's actually kind of a tropical album; maybe Jimmy Buffet would like it.

I really like the first Van Halen record and I am pretty fond of 1984 as well.

Yeah, I remember when I played 5150 it kind of felt like the end of an era.

| Van Halen is a talented band... |
     |
...without an anchor.
David Lee Roth wasn't the best singer or lyricist, but he was a showman.
Sammy Hagar wasn't a good lyricist either, and his drinkin' & druggin' attitude was tired, tired, tired, but he could sing the antennae off a cabo-wabo-cockroach.
But Gary Cherone... He just did not fit. Not at all. He's not a wild showman, he's not a particularly powerful singer. Good, yes but not earth-shakingly good. His lyrics weren't so swell either. In Extreme, he could play off of Nuno Bettencourt but in VH, he seemed exactly like the surrogate he was.

Very well said. Except that after,
| quote: |
"How do I know when it's love?
I can't tell you but it lasts forever
Oh! How does it feel when it's love?
It's just something you feel together
(Oh oh oh oh) Oh, when it's love
(Oh oh oh oh) You can feel it, yeah!
(Oh oh oh oh) Nothin's missin', yeah!" |
I would say "...Hagar wasn't a good lyricist" is being charitable.
