[@surlechapeau]

Brad & Lex, this was from the first Van Halen album where Sammy Hagar replaced David Lee Roth as lead vocalist. That's why it sounds different

[@Cosmo-Kramer]

That's not why it sounds different to them, they've reacted to Van Hagar before. It sounds different because, as Brad said, it's a softer side of the group, a power ballad. Very different from the pure rocker Van Hagar song, "Poundcake", they recently reacted to.

[@michaels58]

Not a power ballad but inspirational

[@woodch]

@@Cosmo-Kramer The softer side of Van Halen indeed-- and not intended as shade, but a more mature Van Halen by then, too. Eddie wanted to stretch his musical wings, and Sammy came along and said "Do it, man!", and 5150 happened, and the rest is history. Van Halen was always pretty diverse, but starting with 5150, they really started covering a LOT of new musical territory. This song in particular is probably my favorite inspirational Van Halen song. It's not about love between two people so much-- it's more about having hope and not giving up on your dreams, even when things are tough-- look to your dreams for inspiration and motivation. Song makes me smile every time I hear it.

[@HansMcGruber]

That and heavy synth sound in mid 80's

[@Cosmo-Kramer]

[@clbdyc]

You beat me to this comment 😂

[@colinm3130]

This is their first album after David Lee Roth. It's the first album that was really done just by Eddie and Don Landee. Eddie always liked playing keyboards, but Roth always complained about how un rock n roll it was. He had to pull teeth to record the song Jump. So this was the album where Eddie got to really do the keyboard songs he always wanted to do instead of just playing guitar. Also probably one of the hardest VH songs to sing because the range is so damn high up there.

[@davidleeroth784]

Oddly you mention the hard to sing song, but it is crazy as a lot of people said I sounded like Hagar when I'd sing his songs including this one. Dave was more challenging for me to sound like as his was just a very different vocal sound. Probably why Dave's voice is shot now while Hagar still can sing pretty good.

[@sportsmom165]

Sammy Hagar was a huge rock star & great guitar player, prior to Van Hagar. Eddie loved he could do keyboards because Sammy could play guitar. Not as good as Eddie & he admits it.

[@racerfink]

This was my class song when I graduated. The official video is footage of the Navy’s Blue Angels precision flying team, and the city I grew up in has a Navy base where the Blue Angels fly every year, and probably half the kids in school had a parent in the Navy, so it worked on several levels for us.

[@jinzoslegions]

The Hagar era has many of my favorite tracks. This one, Love Walks In, Top of the World, Right Now, When It's Love, Why Can't This Be Love (they had a lot of songs with love in the title), Summer Nights, Black and Blue and Finish What Ya Started are all great.

Calling Dave a singer is a stretch. Listen to his isolated vocals and remember that he had to do a line at a time and punch them in to even get it sound as bad as it does😂.

[@kelsosemail]

GOD I LOVE THIS THREAD OF FHE COMMENTS!! Yeah. Sammy for me. I love the early albums but Dave was pretty bad live, vocally. Too focused on "putting on a show," and just didn't have the chops. Anyway. God I love this band!

[@robertclifford2824]

Completely agree

[@sumonjamal1653]

Older Van Halen fans were not enthusiastic when the band announced that original singer David Lee Roth had left the band in 1985... but Eddie Van Halen (guitar) had been experimenting w/ keyboards & synthesizers in his studio. The success of keyboard-oriented VH songs like 'Jump' and "I'll wait" inspired Eddie to write more in that direction... but Roth was increasingly frustrated and unhappy w/ that musical direction. David Lee Roth released a solo EP in '85 and had aspirations (movies & music) outside of Van Halen, which led to the split that year. A chance phone call w/ solo singer Sammy Hagar got Eddie Van Halen to persuade the veteran rocker to visit Eddie's studio, where he played Hagar his new music... Sammy Hagar was not looking to join Van Halen at the time, but he said he was blown away by the music Eddie was writing and added his lyrics and vocal melodies; after hearing the songs he had finished... he agreed to join Van Halen. The 1986 album was titled '5150' and it went to #1 on the US charts... outselling David Lee Roth's solo album "Eat 'em and smile"... Sammy Hagar admitted that Eddie Van Halen was as good as any keyboard player he had worked with, and the music was incredible in his opinion. The '5150' record and the 'OU812' Van Halen albums were very keyboard-oriented, compared to guitar-heavy VH records w/ Roth on vocals... but Hagar encouraged Eddie to work on music he felt passionate about. One track from 1988 was a country-style tune "Finish what ya started" which Hagar played guitar on... Van Halen would return to their guitar-heavy roots on their 1991 album 'For unlawful carnal knowledge'.

[@vinsgraphics]

Usually accompanied by screaming jets and other high powered military themes. 😊

[@victorplekter613]

Always great reactions. This was a second phase of Van Halen. They collaborated with a new lead singer named Sammy Hagar.

[@gryphon9507]

Loved it, a great motivational rock songs, Dreams and Right Now are probably my favorites with Sammy.

[@richard_n]

VH definitely had a different sound with Sammy Hagar as the lead. He brought a new dimension to the band. Be sure to check out Best of Both Worlds, it's a great mix of the old and new eras.

[@kelsosemail]

Not just what Sammy brought - WHICH WAS A LOT - but what he enabled Eddie to do. It's funny how so many lay the Sammy era sound to Sammy, but this is where Eddie was musically at the time. God I love this band!

[@HansMcGruber]

Heavy synth sound was major factor too haha

[@BillyVicenti]

Best of Both worlds is my favorite song on that album.

[@raistlinrodriguez5696]

This was during the Van Hagar period after Dave left the band. Most of their songs during this time were very power ballad and almost poppy.

[@nickvallemusic]

Ummm rlly only half of them. What about Summer Nights, Best of Both Worlds, Get Up, Good Enough, Naturally Wired, Black and Blue, Poundcake, Dont Tell Me What Love Can Do… there are many more… The thing is the record company and the radio stations always pushed the pop songs so when people think of the Hagar era that’s all they think

[@williamwilson6887]

I had this album blasting last night. For all the trash talking between both the Hagar and Roth Van Halen eras I have to say…….both put out quality tunes…..just different.

[@classiclife7204]

While I prefer the Roth era, this album is strangely underrated by the critics at large. The only real dud is the last thing, "Inside". The rest of the songs are great, even the poppy songs that I've never liked (like this one). "1984" sucks all the oxygen, but this record is basically just as good. I think 1984, 5150, and OU812 constitute a distinct era, despite the first one having a different singer. Very ornate 80s pop with occasional blistering rockers. The VH records before and after don't have quite the same mix.

[@williamwilson6887]

[@HeavyTopspin]

This was a pretty drastic change for the band, definitely showing a lot of the influence the two lead singers had on the direction of their music. Overall it was definitely a more melodic sound than previous albums, but the most interesting thing was seeing them in concert back in 1986, with Sammy trying to sing Dave's songs... with Eddie, Alex and Michael playing for several of Sammy's solo hits.

[@andrewr2997]

This album was the first Van Halen album to hit number 1 on billboards top chart. The album was called 5150 a California police code.

5150 is a great album. Seeing it live at the Texxas Jam in July of 1986 at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas was incredible. My teenage self is still inside me with the memories from that show. Best of times.

[@greggburke3770]

That's what fans refer to as Van Hagar. (when lead singer David Lee Roth was replaced by Sammy Hagar) Eddie and David Lee Roth weren't getting along after their hit album 1984, so they auditioned new singers and the band picked Sammy Hagar, and then released the album 5150 in 1986. This was the 2nd single released. Why Can't this Be Love, Love Comes Walkin' In, and Summer Nights were some other great songs form the album. They changed their style a bit with Hagar as he worked a lot with Eddie on writing the songs.

[@Andyonplanetearth]

DLR said it himself, his VH era is all about "Running with the devil" while Sammy Hagar's era is all about "Love walks in". There's a reason why my TOP2 favorite bands are Van Halen and Van Halen ;)

My take on the Dave vs Sammy argument is that you can like both.

[@chriswildhaber35]

All their music is great with both front men. And the 🐐 in my opinion on guitar.Sammy Hagar the red rocker, was a great fit after the loss of David from the band.

[@Mr.Ekshin]

Van Halen was one of those bands that you cranked at a house party after everyone had a few beers in them. But after Sally Hagar joined, it sure didn't sound like Van Halen anymore. She was cute and all, screeching out all those high-pitched love ballads... but most people I know longed for Dave's return. I guess 5150 got decent radio play, but it just failed in every way possible as party music. Sadly, Van Halen just kinda faded from rock-god status, and melded themselves into the 1980's hair-band pop culture.

[@ugaais]

Class of 1988 here yes and my thought DLR era is and was better…that being said this was their album with Sammy

[@hubrisnaut]

There is something existential about this song and many others by VH during the Sammy years. I was involved in Navel aviation. Fighter pilots were jamming to these songs right into the teeth of danger. There is something about them that was perfect backdrops for the over-the-top audacity of extremely accomplished people of the time. Still gives me targets today...

Well-crafted pop/hard rock song. Sammy took a little getting used to at the time, but obviously I like 5150 the album. The song 5150 on the album is one of my favorites of Ed's to play. Seems like Lex has good taste, which should make Brad feel pretty good.

Totally different feeling from David to Sammy Hagar but I love them both ❤️ David lee Roth was more fun to watch but I love Sammy’s vocals

Not Enough & Love Walks In

[@Haztagz]

One of the best VH songs produced by Foreigner's Mick Jones featuring a montage of the US Navy Blue Angels in various aerobatic sequences!

This song was at the very end of original power rangers movie. That’s when I first heard it as a kid in the 90s. Fantastic song!

GunnerJay16, that is ✅ my friend. How old were you when this song came out

[@tear728]

This is the type of that song you would hear in very late 80s movie about hockey

Eddie was wanting to do Keyboard songs and David said no, our fans want guitars. So when he left and Sammy jumped in, he was willing to do whatever. Try Love Walks In.

Sammy was also in a contract with Van Halen and wasn't supposed to be strengthening his own agenda, which clashed with executives at the music label. HE was the end of Van Halen, just like Yoko Ono was the end of the Beatles.

Takes me back to the Power Rangers movie when this song was featured at the end of it when my eldest son used to watch it all the time!!! Love it...

[@kennetthgarcia8747]

Phucken that is correct my dude.

Favourite van halen song, sammy had not long released an acoustic version of this 🤘

[@traog]

In an interview with David Lee Roth he says his music with VH was about having relationships with no commitment / connection, "Aint talking about love". VH with Sammy was about connecting with someone you love, "This could be love"

Gotta watch the official video with this song. Really makes the song special.

[@asicerik]

Sammy is ALL about the love songs. That was one of the biggest shifts when he took over. DLR was gritty, funny, etc. Sammy, just about every song is about love :)

“... The Van Halen brothers learned to play the piano as children starting at the age of six. They commuted from Pasadena to San Pedro to study with an elderly man, Stasys (Stanley) Kalvaitis who taught them classical piano. Although they hated the commute, they continued as their mother would discipline them if they refused to go. Van Halen revealed in an interview that he never could read the music. Instead, he learned from watching and listening. During recitals of Bach or Mozart, he would simply wing it. From 1964 through 1967, Edward won first place in the annual piano competition held at Long Beach City College. Afterward, the judges would comment that he had an interesting interpretation of the classical piece. Van Halen’s view was, “What? I thought I was playing it correctly!” So Eddis was born in 1955, meaning that he was competing from age 9 to 13 on Piano and winning... keyboards weren't an afterthought to him and , to me, it kind of explains why it was natural to him to bring his right hand to the neck and start tapping notes that he couldn't reach with his (already busy) left hand. That's what you DO on a piano.
