VH couldn't have been as successful without every one of those guys doing exactly what you just heard. Michael Anthony had THE best backing vocals in rock. PERIOD. Great Choice.

[@Fakeaorta]

Anthony was excellent. Roger Taylor would get my best for background vocal in a rock band though.

[@maxsmiley7191]

nailed it

[@stephenburbank7283]

The boys are on point, the background vocals are a huge part of their sound The bassist Michael Anthony needs credit for the vocals.

Dave had a voice coach when he was a teenager. That Voice coach had spent time in Auschwitz. He told Dave to sing every note like his life depended on it. And he said he always did

[@RobertMichaelStewart]

Had the pleasure of seeing Van Halen and Quiet Riot with Randy Rhodes on guitar at a backyard party in 1977 before anybody knew who they were.... Both guitarists were fantastic that night.... Yes I'm getting old.... Great memories.

[@karenkat1111]

That's Awesome!!!

[@jeffreyflint6286]

Man those were the days. Now age creeps up from behind lol. Just turned 63 man.

[@conrad98gtp]

Pay attention to how locked in Eddie is with his brother, Alex on drums. And Michael Anthony on bass is always so overlooked for what he contributed. His high background vocals along with Eddie's really are part of what makes up the Van Halen sound.

[@terrylandess6072]

Alex opens up the ending by just switching to the ride cymbal.

[@362chop]

Time has proven Michael's worth. Any music fan worth a grain of salt recognizes Anthony's contributions.

[@donjackson5522]

Van Halen’s road manager wrote in his book that he thought Michael Anthony was a subpar bass player. He couldn’t have been more wrong. His bass lines are so strong and glue together Eddie and Alex’s playing.

[@jeff90125]

I always thought that Michael Anthony should have taken over lead vocals when Roth left. That idea was probably shot down because of the show. They wouldn't have been able to put on as great of a show without a separate lead singer.

[@debbiedebster5806]

I did an oral report in English about Van Halen freshman year.... the teacher was so pissed I always was doing everything on music lol, but I got an A!! She also told me she appreciated me picking a topic that kept the beastly classmates interested & not wilding out over boredom!😉😀

[@bluelionvintage8134]

I raised my son on oldies and always asked him "who's this?" when songs played. I taught him to recognize old Van Halen by David Lee Roth's squeal!! A total, wonderful trademark!!

[@rdeloges7957]

Have you done the trick question? Where your son is listening to a song and is like, "it sounds like VH, but...the singer sounds different, Dad..." Very good my son, you recognized the sound, but they had ANOTHER singer later. Let's start with 5150...

[@Tank4Life]

This is my favorite David Lee Roth Era song. So many great memories of good days. Michael Anthony and Eddie Van Halen background vocals are what really makes the bands sound.

[@skye62]

🔥 reaction Amber and Jay! Ain't talkin about love another nice one by VH!🙂

[@brucefrancis6222]

Van Halen had many great songs, but this one is my favorite. Being apart of the MTV Generation we didn't realize how lucky we were with all the music genera.

[@pattricklewis]

Agreed. VH should not be overlooked as a great vocal group. Also, I remember being in the 10th grade in 1984 at a party and realizing Van Halen was the first heavy metal band (that I had heard) that kids could actually dance to at parties.

[@wadsworthaaron]

@@pattricklewis Van Halen was party rock (I grew up through their rise from the first album through to 5150, when Roth gave way to VanHaggar, both as the VH heyday). Motorhead, Black Sabbath, and Judas Priest (Van Halen's contemporaries) were metal. Diamond Dave (Roth) liked making music with heavy guitar that you could dance to.

[@GenXDaddyO]

Perfect example of how great Eddie was at rhythm guitar and writing super catchy riffs. Edit: Please consider reacting to Eddie’s solo song Cathedral. IMO, one of the most unique and beautiful solos ever written for guitar. He makes a six string electric sound like a cello. You won’t be sorry, and few reactors have it on their channel.

[@JoinTheProgress]

Needs to be watched live. One of the rare exceptions when I'd want a song reacted to live.

[@mattjohn4731]

@@JoinTheProgress Ed included Cathedral in his epic solo from 1986 tour. But it's under the name Eruption (which is also included)

[@JoinTheProgress]

@@mattjohn4731 Yes, I know, thanks.

[@socket_error1000]

Roth's perfect voice cracks and vocal squeaks and squeals were as much a part of Van Halen's iconic early sound as Eddie's incredible riffs. Roth is highly underrated as a vocalist even today, often being forgotten when people speak of the great rock singers of the era. Every time I listen to early Van Halen I am reminded of how great music was when I was a kid. Not a song of theirs that isn't connected to some nostalgic moment in my youth.

[@socket_error1000]

@Wilt Chamberlain is the GOAT We agree on more than Roth, Wilt IS the GOAT!

[@DaRozeman]

While Roth was a good vocalist, his showmanship and mere stage presence FAR outstripped his vocals and that's what people remember about him. And that's not a bad thing.

[@brettg274]

DLR is straight charisma

[@buckyc.9069]

Yeah, bit unfortunately David Lee Roth got to thinking that he was Van Halen. Alex and Eddie had to show him the error of his ways.

[@socket_error1000]

@@DaRozeman 100%, even after the split. I caught his Skyscraper tour and that was a great show. climbing a rope ladder up to a giant boxing ring suspended in the middle of the arena to do Panama, then riding a huge surf board back to the stage while singing California Girls, just a fun show to watch. Steve Vai was his guitarist on that album/tour so that was an added treat.

[@Pilodon]

My favorite Van Halen song!

[@theodoreritola7641]

The most up lifting and fun song of all of Van Halens songs

[@HabitualButtonPusher]

I remember dancing to this with a pretty girl named Marie way back in 1989. I had only been in the Army of a year and some change and got orders overseas to Ft. Clayton in Panama. Broke my heart to leave her behind. Flash forward 10 years. We had moved on with our lives and I went to a local waterfront dance club with some friends. I scanned around the room and saw a pair of eyes looking back at me. It was Marie. We walked up and hugged each other and this song came on again. We danced together again like it was just meant to be. Kinda erased all those years away. I always get a happy feeling inside when I hear this song and think of Marie and wonder if she does the same when she hears it too.

When Van Halen's first album came out in 1978, it blew is away. I was like wow man. This is heavy. I fell in love with them immediately. Track I'd love to see you react to is " Ain't Talking 'bout Love.

Great song! The Roth era is rich with them. I highly recommend And the Cradle Will Rock, Mean Street, Hear About It Later, and Hot for Teacher. Great drumming on that last one.

[@markcatanzaro9699]

Ahhh, this brings back memories of warm Summer nights, sitting in my room with the lights turned down and the radio on blast. Van Halen was the ultimate windows open, full-speed down the highway music. Even now, if I close my eyes, I can almost feel the wind in my hair and I haven't had hair in decades! LOL Love you guys, look forward to your videos every day. ❤

[@rwfrench66GenX]

Great reaction! This album has a lot of different styles compared to their first album which was more hard rock/metal. They did a cover of Linda Ronstadt’s song You’re No Good on this album. They did a Roy Orbison cover of Oh! Pretty Woman on Diver Down and that album had a cover of Dancing In The Street and Happy Trails and Where Have All The Good Times Gone and Big Bad Bill Is Sweet William Now! In fact their dad played clarinet on Big Bad Bill!

[@patches6309]

That falsetto scream is actually Dave using his "whistle register" technique. He supposedly has a 5 octave range (which is insane) and he can manipulate his vocal register in this unique way. Great reaction guys!

[@brianhenricks7399]

Alex Van Helen(drums) is just as key to their sound, flow as Eddie ... Michael Anthony(bass) vocals and some of His bass riffs .... DLR shreaks are unmistakable. Good pick

[@todvball]

....when VH wrapped up their debut album in 1978, I always remember that they had enough tunes ready for a 2nd album!! And .... VH2 was released not long after!! Maybe less than a year... So good!! And is it the "cowbell" of dance the night away...the harmonies...the drums & guitar. Dave's swag?? All good on this album!! Beautiful Girls might b what you're thinking...but also: Somebody Get Me A Doctor is a goosebump shred!!!

[@jeffcobb2734]

Most people say "Jump" is their most commercially accessible song, but I've always thought this was the song that had the most mass appeal. Such a fun, upbeat, infectious song! The guitar sounds like a steel drum and then those bongo sounds in the bridge. And the vocal harmonies are off the charts! Just a different kind of song for them.

[@cartercarter645]

You said it - really defines high school - love their fun and high energy 🎸

[@amandabispo2949]

"The Cradle Will Rock" and "Hot For Teacher" are some more earlier Van Halen Bangers!! 🔥🤩🔥 I love the video for "Hot for Teacher"...hilarious and controversial which made us want it even more!! Y'all should check out David Lee Roth's solo stuff. "California Girls" and "I'm Just a Gigolo" are a couple to start with.

[@51Dss]

In the movie Mission to Mars there is a scene where Connie Nielson and Tim Robbins dance to this song in a gravity free environment. I believe they played a married couple amongst the crew on a space mission to the planet Mars. It was a very touching scene. I think Amber and J would like that movie especially now that they reacted to this song.

[@90hatter90]

I just mentioned this movie myself in a comment. I love that movie and that scene. When they get back to gravity it’s all shuffling his feet and grabbing her butt.

Amazing how many friends you have out here that you don't even know but feel like you are a part of our lives and bring smiles to our faces daily. HUGS

[@timjc4344]

“Dance The Night Away” is the very first Van Halen song I ever heard, on FM radio in 1978, which got a LOT of play time in Central California! Not only was the song upbeat & fun, but it was also the first time that me or any of my friends had ever heard the groundbreaking “fretboard-tapping” style of guitar playing that Eddie Van Halen incorporated into his riffs, so effortlessly it seemed. None of us listening 44 years ago could figure out how Eddie was making those unique & wonderful sounds with his guitar, but we all saw it “up close & personal” the first time on Sept. 22nd in Fresno.. it amazed us all then, still amazes me today.. RIP Eddie. Great job Alex, David, & Michael.. & of course, Eddie!

[@rdeloges7957]

This is always such a "feel good" song that is great for kicking off a party with family--setting out the food, etc

[@ajgorney]

I always loved the intro to this song with the dull cowbell clank upbeat melding with the guitar riff and then dropping into the rhythm groove with the base and full drum kit coming in.

[@ajgorney]

Also, the hammer tones on the guitar during the chorus.

[@kdm71291]

"Girls, Girls, Girls" is by Motley Crue.....the Van Halen song you're thinking of is "Beautiful Girls"! And it's from this same album...VH 2. This is really their first mainstream, AM radio friendly song.......YEARS before "JUMP"! If you want to hear Eddies bit from this album (He pretty much had one for every album), check out "Spanish Fly"....it's using an acoustic guitar...short and sweet but really shows his talent!
