  • yeah the most inventive guitar player in the whole world how do people hate Van Halen

  • Love Eddie's reaction when the groupies are mentioned. "No of course not! I'm married!"

  • Maria shriver has those lizard eyes.

  • Ed just played a little bit of Panama at 04:18 years before the actual song. Wish this interview was more about Ed with Valerie as a side note.

  • Valerie was so cute then and so cute now.

  • She's holding on to that cat closely hey...

  • Does anyone know where the Valerie interview is where she says Ed would come in his hotel room and cry to her about Dave and cry about the situation in the band and how they all couldn't stand Dave?

  • Gosh, I want a guy like Eddie so bad, especially like at 4:04 - 4:22 to just sit and listen to that special someone who makes that beautiful sound all day :) I mean it look cozy and so romantic!

  • Hogford?! bwahahaha@SouthOCMixdown. So true. I mean, look at Valerie's brothers..theyre a bunch of fat Dagos too, just like her. What was Eddie thinking?! Sorry. You older guys do what you want. But that brown faced pasta eater wudnt get a 2nd look in todays world of hot chix. Eddie was lucky to get rid of her bitchy, old ass. Too bad he forgot to pull out and now the rest of the world has to suffer w\no Micheal Anthony in the band anymore. Doesnt matter cuz they pretty much suck now anyways.

  • @brianodeci08 You come off as a racist prick. I would say that she is pretty hot considering her age, she certainly looks healthier than Ed these days. Love Eddie, always will but if you have anything to say about Valerie's personality, fine, but there is no need to rank on Italians especially that you have actually never met Valerie or her brothers.

  • @7Boogiewoogie #1. Valerie is in NO WAY looking better than Ed these days. Hours of preparation under makeup and TV lights are fooling you, son. Ed can still pull 20something groupies and is fit. Valerie is a whiny, old cow who no guy under 40 would touch. #2. I am Italian and have gangs of women just like Valerie in my family, all of whom were pretty when they were young, then turned into angry sows after 30. #3. I really dont give a fuck about how I come off to you. Ur just a jackass on Utube.

  • As for Valerie~ U wanna marry class and sophistication? Marry a Kennedy, not a rock star. Ironic that M. Shriver(also a victim of boorish cheating), is doing the interview.

    As for EVH- Rockstar. No groupies/drugs? And married to a hot TV star? Im sure he was totally ready for marriage vows, lol.

    As for VH music- Whatever. Each album is its own island. Everyone's a musicologist now.

    Not a eugenist but crimeny, his wife's genes really suck. Her kid shud have named Hogford, not Wolfgang..

  • @SouthOCmixdown LOL Brilliant &well said. Who didnt have a crush on V. Bertinelli? But lets face it> She was totally full of herself. Eddie was a fuckup &maybe he didnt deserve her. But in his position he could still do as good or better no matter what &she comes off as a needling brat. Bad combo for a drunk, ego filled rockstar. Even NOW, she does the chick show rounds, still acting like 15yo H.S girl, looking for validation &applause at what a victim she is. Guess that says it all. Eddie wins.

  • Edward looked high as hell there

  • actually, dave wrote almost all the lyrics and helped come up with melodies.

  • Eddie is drinking beer from a big mug at 4:40. It must have been a morning interview.

  • Comment removed

  • she was sultry as a mf'er

  • WOW 1982 and he's playing Panama!!!!

  • You can see she hen pecked him too much even then. Why would you out a rock star like that? "you were living with your parents" He was ripped by that. Some women don't ever think of the damage they do to their husbands by public bashing. No class.

  • 4:18

    eddie is playing panama, but this was made 2 years before the song came out. its kinda cool hearing a song in its early stages

  • *your lying* hahahaha gotta love Eddie

  • You can see how sugar coated TV journalism was in the 80's, they never would peel away the wall paper to reveal the cracks. At least now in 2011, we are shown the cracks, but it does take away from the fantasy of a 'perfect life' we imagine others are living.

  • All I can say is, Valerie you were one hell of a lucky lady!!!!!!!!

  • You can tell the way Valerie dug Eddie, the way she looks at him at 5:02 when Eddie's asked if the late nights with groupies are true.

  • @cvjucla3 But he is such a liar...OF COURSE there were groupies. But I don't expect him to say that on TV.

  • love that cat

  • and nothing lasts forever

  • My God Valerie was absolutely stunning back then!!! Eddie was one seriously lucky s.o.b.........

  • Hearing Eddie play for just a bit there is a great example as to why I love Van Halen(both Roth and Hagar years. They were both AMAZING) The band knew how to mix melodic hard rock with a feel-good/kinda pop sense to it. Not pop like Madonna, but I mean they weren't as dark as Black Sabbath.

  • hahahahaha wow eddie looks faded!!! love that old 80 rock star shit! 

  • The only thing was eddie had a hard time finding a shirt.

  • I always thought she was Latina or Asian-mixed. She doesn't look like a white girl.

  • so sad-they were very much in love-but then shit happened-I hate it when that happens

  • Wow, starting at 4:24, Ed was playing Panama!

  • maria shriver is a kennedy

  • She's so incredibly cute!

  • Some may recognize the woman doing the interview as Maria Shriver, or Mrs. Arnold Schwarzenegger.

  • How much coke did they ALL do back in the day????

  • I'm sure Ed never cheated. LOL! Then again i'm sure Val didn't either!

  • Eddie and Val LOVED the coke.

  • her brothers are very lucky, shes so talented! and beutifull

  • valerie is such a sweetheart, i love her, sorry ed dont get mad, i love you too

  • i dont belive in riches, but you should see where i live..

  • Edward was shit-faced at 4:25

  • fortunate for these 2 coke heads, when val blasts eddie for living at his parents till he was 25. big wow. Everyones situations different. ed and val sure made alot of money back then to afford their. own places . I wish i could still be home with mine.

    speically if you cant afford. hey val, not everyone was 18 was making the kind of money you were making when they are 18. Plus most people dont move out their parents houses till they get married , which is around 24 25

  • @earlymtv Not only that V.B. was the daughter of an automotive exec. so trust fund was always there. Eddie was probably touring so he really doesn't need to have his own place just a bed.

  • At 4.18 Edward starts Panama which was not even released in 1982.

  • wow she was SO young! That very Valerie face was the one thats classic and flawless. she still looks super hot tho for 50 !

  • No Drugs...they were both coke heads during this time.

  • whoever thinks van halen is awful is mentally retarded.

  • 4:22....a riff from the up and coming Panama...

  • Ed loved to drink.

  • What is "ain't" a contraction of, anyways?? Does anybody know the history of this word?

  • Sad fact but the reason their marriage lasted as long as it did was because they lived separate lives under the same roof...

    She finally through in the towel and left him, not the kid.

    He seem to be high during this video...His demons cost him most of his tongue...

  • Just from that snippet you could tell they were NEVER going to get along!

  • 4:05 what is that song. i completely forgot which one it was

  • @acdcrocx69 He's playing what sounds a little like the opening segment of Women in Love and then goes into something that sounds like part of Panama. Then @ 5:24 it's definitely Women In Love.

  • @actron thanks man. i knew it sounded familiar

  • Wow! The interviewer is Maria Schreiber.... Arnold's wife!!

  • Shriver actually :)

  • @Braunsk1 it's "Shriver"

  • typical how the media try to label VH as heavy metal;while the band itself always proclaimed their style as BigRock

  • "valerie was on TOP OF THE WORLD" how ironic that would be the title of one of vh's hits

  • She was right. Marie Osmond's marriage only lasted a few years.

  • Ever since I heard her tell of "Eddie crying over his buddy Dave not liking his new songs", I've never looked at her the same way.

  • @mrwilliamwonder Where can I hear or read that?

  • They lasted longer than 99% of other celebrity couples. You gotta give 'em that.

  • yea she wrote in herbook that she always loved him but she couldnt take the drinking and that she couldnt let wolfie see that anymore atleast ther still good friends

  • Thank god Eddie went to fender guitars !!

    Love the new Wolfgang

  • eddies guitar here is so boss

  • Maria looks like a Drag Queen !!! WTF ???

  • My God...Maria is VERY disturbing looking

  • She looks worse now.

  • whats are the names of the songs of the video

  • Pretty woman, Little Guitars, Cathedral, So this is Love, Women in Love, Panama (before they even recorded the album it eventually came out on), Hear about it later

  • whats the song that starts at like 0:40

  • pretty woman..originally done by roy orbison

  • Wow - is that Maria Schiver @ 2.02 ? She looks like Alice Cooper with that eye make-up!

  • Val is sooo Hot even now !!!! Ed fucked up bigtime

  • i met her two times first time she a bitch secont she waz so sweet = pretty hey valerie you rock thanks for takin a picture with me i know alot people misunderstood you ur still a sweetheart on tv

  • hahaha big bad rockstar is embarrassed he ever lived with his parents

  • man she was hoooottt

  • Yes, she was.

  • @robdorg Was? She still is.

  • @robdorg she still is bro...she still is :]

  • Its aint its aint its aint....light up the sky....otta love again....simple rhyme..full bug......fairwarning=top 5 metal/hard rock albums ever ...easy.

  • god those old van halen albums were fucking brilliant....anything after 1984 was trash gloss pop journey cat shit !!

  • F.U.C.K. is a great album man, probably one of the best guitar sound ever

  • Well looking back in a monday morning quarterback sorta way FUCK was so predictable and boring...personally speaking that band jumped the shark in 1984...van hagar music was embarassing ...no really it really was is will ever be...yuck thank god its ovah.

  • Actually Hagar is a much better singer than Roth. Most of their hits were when Hagar was in the lead vocals. Some of the Roth stuff was fine but he does not have the voice range that Hagar does. Amazed that so many can't see that. Eddy's drinking contributed big time to the problems within the band--it also was the main problem in the marriage for Val & Eddie. The affairs happened after the drinking got bad. To see this video now is sort of funny--so much has changed since then.

  • The van hagar stuff was awfull just terrible pop crap. hagar may sing better but he sucks as a member of this band.

    sorry its a fact.

  • Sorry, it "ain't" a fact.  You sound like a 14-year old.

  • Ask any hard rock metal fan thats not a women and they agree with me...sorry sweetheart.

  • you sound like a girl that hates heavy rock/metal and loves pop rock with pretty singing and love songs bands like journey and van hagar.

  • I bet I was listening to Van Halen when you were in diapers and no I don't care for Journey. I like Cinderella, RATT, Poison, Boston and a few others.

  • With all due respect sweetheart i was listening to Van Halen in 1978 thank you very much. hardly in diapers. with all due respect those bands you listed are all garbage. try Pantera,Metallica,Rush, Judas Priest Sabbath than well be talking.

    peace.

  • amen

  • I told Eddie this, and he was non-responsive. Hehe, he knew what I was saying. This is correct. They went for the dollars, and radio acceptance, for sure.

  • totally bro well said.

  • @bosoxyaz8 sorry it's not

  • Lol. That's so wrong I don't even know where to start.

  • People seem to forget that Eddie wrote ALL the songs except the covers. Dave didn't write the songs. Sammy didn't write the songs. If Van Halen went down hill, it was Eddie's fault.

    Van Halen never was the same after Fair Warning.

  • well to be honest as much as i love him its roth i blame for that van hagar trash. roth quit van halen so he must take most of the blame. its a mute point now that eddie and roth pulled both their headz out of theirs ass` and woke up.

  • @music3874 A-fucking-Men!!!

  • @music3874 well friend i think its fair to say that DLR and Van halen were golden to gethter i think if he didnt leave all those songs after 1984 would be much more listenable and remmber 1984 put them on the spot especially after eddy did beat it

  • @music3874

    DLR wrote the lyrics. EVH wrote the music, yes.

  • @music3874 what you talking about bro dave wrote every melody and all the lyrics on those songs look it up

  • at one point, these two looked like twins.. lol. I personally want a wife that looks absolutely nothing like me at all.

  • i wonder how Eddie screwed up does anyone know!

  • They constantly cheated on each other. mainly because Eddie couldnt keep his alcoholism under control. She must have been a wonderful woman and influence for him to be with.

  • Lol, he was hammered during the interview

  • Yeah, that's what I can see. He's been sober for about 2-3 years now or so the news stories say. At 54 years old, it's time he got his act together. I believe his booze was a lot to blame for the demise of their marriage. I've read Val's book & seen her interviewed a number of times the last couple years. Alcohol wrecks a lot of lives.

  • she looked seriously pissed off at eddie about the groupie question haha

  • @partyboy420420 yeah she did...like as if she already knew the real answer to this question...

  • I have always loved Valerie!! Valerie your looking hotter today than ever before! Your amazing and I loved your book too!

  • valerie has barely changed-but Maria Shriver has certainly changed.Hmm-

  • WIL at 4:03 Panama at 4:19.

  • i love cats too val

  • Hot!!!!!!!!!

  • She had a Diane lane thing going on....and Diane stayed hot...Valerie keeps whoring herself out to these stupid weight loss deals.....just eat smart, jog a mile every other day and shut the f up already

  • 2:45, a new bra that didn't catch on in the 80's.

  • Both coked up and in denial. Nice.

  • He was playing "Woman in love" AND a pre-release version of "Panama". I'm sure he played more than them two while playing. Anyone who writes always fiddles around with new licks. He started the one lick and went into the other. He's always innovating. Thats why he's Ed. I'm suprised he would play something new to the media. Maybe it was only a lick back then and it turned into one of his biggest hits later on. Who cares anyway. Valarie was a hot piece back then and Eddie rocked and always will.

  • It's worth watching this just for 4:03-4:24 where you hear him play rough Panama. Ed is bad ass.

  • thats not Panama thats Women In Love

  • It's both man. Open your ears.

  • That's panama

  • that is women in love

    your not a true van halen fan because that is not panama at 4:03

  • Panama riff right after Women in Love riff at 4:18 to 4:23 .

  • I am aware of what other songs are being played, but you don't here panama at all? You gotta take a closer listen between 4:20 and 4:24. It's there, quick, but it's in there. Don't know what a true fan is, but I have listen to them for over 20 years (I'm 27), been to 3 of their concerts and even bought merchandise at the show. That's both stupid and fanatical.

  • You're right Panama is there. It's not 100% what we know from 1984. But it was definately there.

  • whats the song playing at 51

  • "Pretty Woman"

  • wow ed is one of the luckiest man in the world

  • was being the objective word here ^.^

  • It's over folks. All of it. Now and forever.  Last guy out, turn of the lights.

  • He's so drunk it's kinda pathetic. He pissed her off when he said "take a guess" . But she certainly pissed him off first when she told America he lived with his parents...ahahaha!

  • w0rd that foo was Shrunk

  • was Maria with Arnold when this was made?

  • I hope he cleans up. SRV did it. Clapton did it. Why can't Eddie? You are a dipshit. This is not a pissing contest, so quit trying to to be cool by dogging everyone. Grow up.

  • hey what does it matter eddie reinvented the wheel in the world of guitar playing and valerie is smokin hot at 48........thanks jenny craig and the super nova from where edward was thrust.....

  • Fuck me? You're the one who doesn't know shit. He's a drunk. His best is behind him. I am surprised he hasn't died from it. So fuck YOU. He wasted his talent being wasted.

  • Sucks to say, but your right. And don't get me wrong, cuz I love Van Halen!!! But he's a drunk... Watch "Eddie Van Halen behaving badly at NAMM" if you need more proof...

  • I heard a little Panama in there two years before 1984..

  • Yeah I noticed that too, lol. Cool.

  • I'll bet she was a pain to live with, instead of just saying yes honey we have a home now & we're happy, she has to embarras the guy & bring up him living with his parents. Had a friend like this, she had a good man & threw him away by picking at almost everything he said & correcting him in front of people. She used to humiliate the hell of out of him, he left & now she's with a f'ing bum. Ladies, learn when to keep your damn trap shut!

  • I love her expression at 1:43 !

  • she's so sweet... no I'm kiddin' she's a BITCH

  • Does anyone else notice that eddie and valerie kinda look like brother and sister? Wolfgang looks identical to valerie

  • Dude! Is EVH really talking?

  • There marriage normal, LOL come on, I couldnt wait for mine to leave so I could jam with the boys all night long! My ole sang One more Beer!!! And buckle up

  • Obviously the writers who kept writing it were correct, Valerie Bertinelli wasnt very happy with her marriage. She lied!

  • I always thought she was cute, but overrated. I seen far hotter females at the mall or beach anyday of the week.

  • not rock star's life? that's right Eddie :(

  • can anyone tell me the title of the song that starts at  1:41?

  • little guitars!

  • Little Guitars off 1982's Diver Down album.

  • I LOVE EDDIE VAN HALEN ! xD

  • After watching Valerie Bertinelli on "The Doctors" television show................that must have been some marriage....2/6/09

  • "...now that she's over 21 we can safely call her sexy..." (what the fuck!)

  • Panama is what he is playing

  • He's not playing Panama, he's playing the intro to Women in Love. It's on the second album, second last song.

  • beautiful girls was last on van halen2

  • Read my comment again sir, you will see that I said Women in Love is the second last song on V.H2 I know Beautiful Girls is the last song I've been a die hard Halen fan for over 25 years.

  • Sorry after listening to it again you're right it is Panama.

  • at 4:00 to 4:03 what song is eddie playing

  • i like it when they said she's growing up tthen u hear pretty woman, u don't grow up if u merry evh LOL

  • fuck what song is that at 4:08 or is it just eddie imrovising like an amazing man he is?

  • panama, before it was even released.

  • sorry nm i thought you were reffering to 4:18

  • Fuck this shit....fucking Barbara Cooper...Valerie was never as famous as Eddie...I always heard she was a fucking bitch...

  • damn, he's such a babe.

  • Is the interviewer Maria Schriver, pre- Mrs Arnold Swarzenegger days?
