  • lip synch, much, boys?

  • play this at the exact same time as acoustic and its awesome

  • FUCK-YES!!! Just saw the accoustic version of this song on Yahoo with the much older versions of these men, but back in the day, these guys were gods!!!

  • Ooh amo los movimientos de david lee!! <3 sexy!!!

  • this video reeks of sexuality!!!!

  • did rockers wear any mousse or hair styling products to make their hair look so puffed?

  • @thedeewoman yeah, hair spray

  • @thedeewoman Hair Spray, loaIds and loads of HAIR SPRAY

  • kinks

  • David Roth is kinda a camera hog. I mean i understand he is a total badass, but he just knows it too much. His ego is bigger than Tim Duncan for christ sakes.

  • this song rocks

  • 1:03 Dat ass

  • godly activity going on :D

  • Rock on!!!

  • you....

  • when I first heard this I thought it was EXTREME

  • Mickey mouse rockstar play this song, now my little sister it's a van halen fan.

  • Love this tune. Have a soft spot for the Kinks original version because the originals are always the best. But these guys took it and turned the amps up to 11.

  • Saw'em in 79 or so; ripped my head off. I was sitting on the the right in front of EVH when they played that first album. OMFG. loved'em ever since.

  • Diamond Dave...the first man to do the Shakira dance and get away with it. SEX to the E.

    Shakira probably got it from him. lol.

  • This is very good, but I still like the Kinks version better.

  • HEY! PLEASE SAY ME WHAT CONCERT IS THIS!!! OR WHATS THE NAME ?? OR WHERE?? PLEAAAASE! OR IS JUST A VIDEO OF A STUDIO??

  • Damn! All Diamond Dave needs is a stripper pole! Rock and Roll porn - I love it!!!!

  • Who says covers aren't as good as the originals, this blows the original out of the water.

  • de las mejores cosas q he escuchadoooooo!!!!

  • This was the first time we got to see 'Diamond' David Lee Roth in his splendor. VanHalen got started in 1978, and they would get more wild as the years went by. In a word: WOW!

  • Dimond Dave!!!!!!

  • A cover that is worthy of the original by The Kinks. Great stuff.

  • before DLR turned into an idiot

  • There is only one Diamond Dave no other no subsitutes

  • How much tasty pussy did Diamond Dave bag in the 1980's ???

    IT BLOWS MINDS TO THINK ABOUT IT......

  • LA GUITARE DE VAN HALEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!OH! YEAH!!!

  • 0:04 eddie van derp

  • 1:21 Men.. that's my favorite part of the video

  • 293 people are virgins, and not because they want be

  • Comment removed

  • MOTHER OF GOD!

  • this is a very good song

  • EDV Genius

  • Nahh....Davies solo is better than Van halen solo, i got to admit it, iTS A GOOD COVER BUT THE ORIGINAL IS THE BEST, THE SOLO GUITAR SOUNDS LIKE WESTERN COWBOYS

  • Il a pas les abeilles dans le froc par hasard.La première à être passée après a dû sentir la musique...

  • THERS NO 3:24 TO THIS SONG 

  • Right there with The Byrds Mr Tambourine Man of the greatest covers in rock

  • Great song, video sucked though

  • lifedlr. overblog. com

  • brendan fraser needs to be david if there is going to be a van halen movie, they look alike so much

  • Fake, that was the studio recording. Baddass, but not a live recording

  • at 1:20 captures the magic of EVH when he could have melted diamonds his energy was so hot.......incredible!

  • ya, YOU should no...

  • wow put a real shirt on hippie

  • nessuno si è mai accorto che David Lee Roth in questa canzone sembra abbia la voce di ozzy osbourne ? :-)))))

  • in the intro eddie has the best face ever :)

  • how can i get the white humbucker, and should it be a dimarzio paf or a seymour duncan 78 ?

  • he's probably banged more women than any other guy bangs in 50 years. how is he gay... 

  • people who say that David Lee Roth is gay are gay. It is the Law of David Lee Roth .

  • @mayak190518

    I don't think it really matters... Jimmy Page is gay, and he rocks like a boss ;)

    Few people can play as good as him, I would say.

  • @H3rb3rtW3hn3r

    Not that it matters, but Page is very much straight.

  • @mayak190518 like my friend over here who just got owned by your comment :)

  • @mayak190518 you must see a doctor  maybe he isn't gay BUT HE IS ON DRUGS and at 0:55 he reminds me of Shakira

  • @Stevesays100 OK he's on drugs, so what?

  • WHO SAID THIS GUY IS GAY? O.O

  • Espero y les guste

  • cant get enough of this

  • its quite sad that ed doesnt use that shark guitar no more what a waste of timing building it really

  • David Lee Roth = SEX GOD FOR HOT WOMEN

  • David,you really got me

  • @coolhellu sii que sii

  • fucking amazing

  • Eddie and Randy are both guitar gods. but NO ONE has ever left such a huge legacy on only 2 albums with ozzy like randy did.

  • @MrAxeman1986 Excuse me, but you can't compare Eddie and Randy... it's not possible

  • @vicenteroma Yeah you could. it'd be silly, because Eddie pretty much invented a style, where as Randy was just epic. But then, Eddie isn't backed by Ozzys' vocals, so it is a little like comparing apples to oranges, or the 60's to the 80'.

  • anithing van halen writtes is golden! I <3 THEM!

  • @AxelNight13 sorry for being "that guy" but this song was written and performed first by the kinks

  • @Commanderwhiskers13 im srry for not over lokking that,ik that but hell idk what i was thinkin that day lol

  • @AxelNight13 its fine i found out about the kinks version literally 45-60 seconds before i wrote that comment

  • ROCK YO HIPS

  • 291 people didn't really got it.

  • Ediie Van Halen!

  • What a damned shame these guys couldn't keep their egos in check and continue to make great music!

  • This is the day Randy Rhoads was in the front row and said, " Someday I wanna Play Like Eddie"....now he's gone, he never suceeded. The birth a rock n roll Guitar God, right here.........The King, Mr EVH! Cheers

  • @Lucicsux Rhoads surpassed Eddie. Why? 'Cos he always advanced to a higher level. Anything he did was unpredictable and different every time. Truth is Rhoads have planned to leave Ozzy and go back to study classical music. Eddie is great, but after he reached his peak, he stopped going further. He hasn't changed anything about how he plays in at least 2 decades. R.I.P. Rhoads

  • @metalbonicks that hardly makes him "better" even if that were true

  • @metalbonicks wrong, in fact ,Jake E Lee was twice the axemen Rhoads could have ever have been

  • @Lucicsux who the hell is talking about Jake? This is about Randy and Eddie

  • @metalbonicks EVH is the most influential, and greatest guitarist of all time, now as far as Ozzy goes, Jake Lee was his best guitarist of all time. He blew Rhoads away in skill, showmanship and style

  • @Lucicsux I'm not going to argue about this anymore, 'cos none of what you imply is even close to truth. Lee blew Rhoads away in skill, showmanship and style? Seriously? No no.. I really mean SERIOUSLY?! Whatever lol

  • @metalbonicks okie dokie, buh bye....EVH is God

  • I thought Van Halen was pathetic in the 80s, (cause I was cool) and whilst they still look ridiculous, that was a fat bass going on there. If that was really live sound with just one guitar and on bass that was pretty cool. And yes, I didn't think the singer banged girls, how could he with cool guys like me laughing at his ass, but yeah, I don't wanna imagine how much a good time these guys had.

  • Eddie's trademark tapping...David's posturing & voice...they get the spotlight & that's OK but LISTEN to Michael's bass line and Alex's drum kit and appreciate what is hoding it all together & pushing it forward...in my opinion this is rare collective genius of the same order of say Led Zeppelin.

  • Michael Angelo Batio

  • Damn, Eddie Van Halen was F@#$ing awesome! One of the top guitar players of all time!

  • this song rocks.

  • Absolutely brilliant, thanks for posting..

  • @rolf196619 When did the Who do this?

  • come on who are these sick people who disliked this

  • @kristdaoud

  • @TobWorld hehehehe XD

  • Eddie Van Halen was SOOOOO HOTTTT!!!!

  • David Lee Roth banged Chuck Norris

  • LOL.....yeah I'm sure David Lee Roth is gay......you ass clowns have no idea how much pussy he pounded in the 80's

  • does someone know how to di the cool harmonics in the song?

  • Why did bands make videos like this if there wasn't MTV yet? Where would these videos go? Excuse my ignorance, but I wasn't alive at that time, haha.

  • @blueyedcutie1470 They would be played late Saturday night on USA network, seriously.

  • If you dont like van halen why are you watching this video. Jimi Hendrix is good so just shut up and go comment his videos

  • hendrix sucks

  • You suck. Faggot.

  • listen to Voodoo Child (Slight Return)...

  • gäääääääääähhhhhhnnnnn

  • everyone's entitled to their own opinion

  • yea hendrix is alot better

  • cool heavy metal i like

  • Eddie Van Halen is the greatest guitarist ever! Frankenstein stripes look amazing.

  • he is good, but greatest guitarist ever? ever heard of Jimi Hendrix?

  • hendrix aint the best. he was very good, but u cant compare him to eddie. 2 different styles dude.

  • eddie's playing is very blues influenced, though

  • 2 different 2 compare right? And also include time periods... I mean Hendrix was the best in his time and Halen was the best in his time... I'm right, right?

  • right.

  • accedently poot bad comment on yours link bullet. i meant to click awsome comment. and slash happens to be the best of this time. cordismaximus doesnt see that is all.

  • fuck yea

  • sanjaya or whatever that guy from america idol rly made this song bad at least u guys can sing it

  • Hey dummies.......Ray Davies used to play this song in the early 80's at Kinks concerts and he would say to the audience........"Now it's time for a smokin' hot Van Halen song!"........and they would rip into this tune.......now what version do you think is better, assholes ???

  • trueform08, it's not blues, the kinks version was rock n' roll, van halens version was hard rock i think..

  • Van Halen's version is much better!!

  • longlivethesixties u missed number 3. van halen rocks!!

  • haha yeah i deleted one and then i forgot to redo the numbers lol. =P

  • dude i totally wish that big hair was still in style. then i wouldnt have to go to the trouble of straightening it and shit hahahaa/

  • fuck style do what ya want to...:)

  • 1.) the kinks version of this song is better

    2.)this version is actually pretty similar to the kinks version, they diddnt change it much. i like added the guitar solo though

    4.) i like the ray davies voice better with this song.

    5.) i would have enjoyed this good cover of a great rock classic much more if david diddnt have to belly dance,flip his hair, and stick his chest out. im all for people feelin the music and all but,my god!, sometimes its best just to sing the song!

  • u idiot, ray davies even said himself that he likes this version better!!!!!!

  • well i like van halen AND the kinks, and listening to the two versions, i like them both. BUT i just like the kinks one better. it my personal opinion.

  • oh o- i prefer the kinks-not sure about this but it could grow on me

    this is kind of i dunno if samey is the word lmao but it doesnt have that special something lol

  • Yes, the guitar solo is good. But, it's just like every other song of van halen's. There's no variety from every other song he plays, and so you may as well buy one of his songs, and get the same thing but a couple minutes long instead... Don't get me wrong, he's a really good player, just plays all the same stuff.

  • Yes, I'm not saying he's a bad player, but for me a good solo has to enter my mind, like if it was a sympohny, which doesn't happen with Van Halen. Led Zeppelin, Eric Clapton, Deep Purple, Dire Straits - those make good solos. But that's only my opinion.

  • Sick guitar solo. It's certainly not just "show off". Listen to bends and a killer vibrato. Try doing 2 and 2and1/2 step bends with vibrato. Really fast tapping that is actually a nice little classical melody blues licks, toggle switch tricks all played with immaculate tone and feel.

  • That guitar solo is just "show off", it's not good sound. If you want a good guitar solo listen to the original!

  • this is original, unless you are meaning the kinks

  • that band Angel tried to make their own version of this song at beat VH to the release after Eddie played their recently recorded copy to one of the guys in that band.

  • Thats a sick guitar

  • david lee roth is a SINGER...why do you care about his sexual orientation,just listen to the music,or better,don't watch this if you don't like it,damn,how can you be so narrow minded? [nevertheless,van halen rocks,very feel-good quality music]

  • igualito que el falso profeta

  • I like this version better but I have respect for the Kinks for creating the original.

  • es un papucho con sus pelos en el pecho.

  • eh...i bet this is what david is thinking while he is doing his belly dancing..."i am soooo sexy

  • david lee roth is the fucking shit

    you have to be straight to understand

  • Dude, he's the shit AND the piss.

  • totally disagree.

  • you can't even imagine how many chicks he has banged, this guy you call gay

  • @BlackBloodySabbath69 i agreewith u 110% idk who the hell called him gay but they must want his dick up their ass.

  • was your mom proked by this guy?

  • they are bot excellent songs, the one of the kinks and this one.

    this one is with less noise, i hate that and love that :p

  • Ibanez Destroyer model 251

  • ok is it just me or does david lee roth look alot like robert plant?????

  • its just u

  • just you :p

  • Yes, there are earlier comments on here that make that observation.  He appears to be channeling Robert Plant here.

  • Wow, he can really move his hips. xD

  • i like the kinks' version better

  • the kinks suck compared to van halen

  • thats your opinion, and i respect that :D
