  • I like the way the line runs up the back of the stocking

  • Best (and among the first) dive bombs ever. No follow-up was ever needed. I hear it and feel the need to duck...

  • Classic Van Halen!!!

  • "Look I'll pay you for it, what the fuck!

  • Thrilled to see this one is on the setlist, Wednesday in Indy is gonna be sick, sick, sick.

  • music that plays in the background of the following scenes:

    - bar brawl

    - several guys drooling over one woman

    - drag race

  • no no no, don't take em off...leave em on

  • ...because...everybody wants some!

  • 3:34 "I like-*loud guitar chord*"

  • This song is classic untouchable....it's so damn good, no one can even question it, period!!!!

    One of the best rock songs ever......

  • this is a song that gets you going in the morning.

  • This song makes me horny v.v;;

  • How much ?.....I'll pay ya for it....WTF

  • @xUndisputedAttitude mama raised a fool XD

  • ZombieLand!!

  • Rock n Roll is defined!!

  • This was the song that got me very fascinated and addicted to Van Halen, yes when I heard it in better Off Dead, but that is beside the point, i love the structure of this song and how the solo section happens twice. It rises to an excellent crescendo of great guitar playing in those parts.

  • Great tune! Love the intro, especially Dave's Tarzan yells...awesome :D..!!

  • @KnowImillian Well "Michael Anthony" angle look a bit strange .-)

  • Hey, Andy , remember we saw these guys, (I don't really remember) in Medford, Oregon in 1979 right before I entered the Air Force? Eddie was killer! Best concert I have ever seen.

  • DANCING HAMBURGERS!!!

  • @metalstormimpaler better off dead was the shit back in the day

  • this rocks!!! i love it!!

  • Dave is fucking Tarzan on this one.

  • It was this...then "How do I know when it's love"....it seems simple but so many don't get it

  • Comment removed

  • Claymation burgers rockin out, Frankensteined back from burger death and jammin on the Franken-strat!

  • 3:40 best part!

  • I like the little way the line runs up the back of the stockings

    I've always liked those kind of high heels, too, ya know I...

    No, no, no, no don't take 'em off. Don't take...leave 'em on

    Yeah, that's it...a little more to the right

    love it!!!!

    Bona Fide boner starter!

    I Want SOME!

  • Alex is the master of ceremony on this one....

  • where's the dancin hamburger????

  • Back then, most of us guys loved Van Halen but couldn't stand David Lee Roth. It was all about Eddie V. At that time, David Lee Roth sounded like some kind of fucked up Broadway singer to us. THIS SONG changed all that and we finally let David Lee Roth in the band.

  • Oops...comment posted twice...

  • Oh yeah...Ed-ster ...most excellent... :)

  • i wish i was living in those days i mean goddamn

  • @TheMonsterman1996 I lived through it....it was fucking bad ass. Alcohol, fast women, parties, and the baddest Van Halen tunes ever recorded. Life was a never ending fucking party.

  • @sbeckius your so lucky

  • This brings back some kick ass memories.

  • LOOK...I'll pay ya for it....what the fuck!

  • DLR said in his book "Crazy From The Heat" the lyric was mumbled intentional. He was copying what old blues singers did. He felt this made the song more authentic. He said he don`t remember what the lyric was, but he believed it was "I`ve seen a lot of people just a lookin` for a moonbeam" As for the parts where he`s speaking this was when the media was in love with DLR and Microphones followed him everywhere. However, I love the line "Where`d you get that shit? Oh! Yeah!"

  • YES!

    

  • Best Van Halen song ever!

  • I'm getting head as i listen to this song right this very moment. :- }

  • "I took a mobile light lookin for a moonbeam"

  • 4 people aint getting some

  • @theMichaelseymour and I heard ...."musha looka lad lookin for a moopie". At least yours makes a little mo sense. lol! And thats been the same for me the past 30 years. BUT, I did understand "cough, cough, ... whoa, where'd ya get that shit ... OH MAN?" "I like the way the line runs up the back of the stockings... I've always likes those kinda high heels too you know I... "

  • 1;58 blah,blah,somthing,mumble..."l­ookin forwhoopee ! ....well ,thats what i thought for over 30 yrs . Im stickin to it.

  • good movie,rad song

  • watching clips from "Better Off Dead" brought me here :-)

  • @anvildrop "I'll show 'em what everybody wants!"

  • I think the New York Dolls would be proud of this!

  • THIS IS THE ULTIMATE VAN HALEN SONG PEOPLE!!!

  • Best backbeat EVER !!

  • AVH was born exactly 51 years after a volcanic eruption in Martinique kills over 30, 000 people. What do you think that means???

  • was there any official vids made for this LP ?

  • @TheMichaelseymour There was a great video for this. Surprised it's not here. I think the Warner lawyers are at work.

  • i want some!

  • @mrepicguy12 gayer

  • @mrepicguy12 gay

  • Look, I'll pay you for it what the fuck?

  • @gojira931 lol!!

  • @gojira931, I also like from 3:28-4:02.

  • Sounds like a great gig Pyramid8. This is when VH were on the top of their game and for me Diamond Dave is the best front man ever, closely followed by Paul Stanley and Dee Snider.

  • One of many tracks on my "Road Music" CD. Keeps ya truckin...... 

  • Aaahhh!! Brings back such good memories..just arriving at a Van Halen concert hearing the music in the background..catting with my friend who looked just like Tawny Kitaen making our way down in our leather / snake skin mini skirts and thigh high boots and chokers to get as close as possible by charming guards and long haired men EVERYWHERE!!! We did get backstage once, talk about a party!!! I wish they would invent time travel!!!

  • @pyramid8--Can you send me pictures???? I think I love you! :o)

  • Whos ready for the new Van Halen single!

  • thumbs up if this made you think of Better Off Dead at some point.

  • @sabbathtage25

    I was thinking of that hamburger dude busting out this song ROFL

  • @sabbathtage25 MEYER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @sabbathtage25 actually made me think of how zakk wylde tried to imitate this stuff with ozzy on the no more tears album

  • @tgm5150 Which song in particular did Zakk try to imitate this stuff on No More Tears? Really wanna hear it and how similar it sounds.

  • @bbutters2 first off listen to zombie stomp and then maybe give the whole album a listen it is a good album and zakk wylde could rip van halen a new one but i think people should be themselves not that he did not do a good job it is just i felt like he was trying to impress one of his guitar idols from his childhood.

  • @tgm5150 I don't know about ripping Eddie a knew one, in their heyday Ed wins by a mile, but now Ed is older and Zakk is still been playin in bands for years now, but I'll give a listen.

  • @bbutters2 also try A.V.H. on the no more tears album as well

  • @tgm5150 Eddie would rip zakk 99 outta 100 times. The only time he wouldn't is if Eddie got too wasted and couldn't find his guitfiddle that day.

  • @mcnown83 Zakk would agree with this statement too, he's a massive VH fan

  • @sabbathtage25 I WANT AN FN HAMBURGER !!!!

  • @robinmontesrubin

    Better be a Fur Burger suka!

  • @sabbathtage25...or Zombieland....:D

  • HAHAHA! I laughed my ass off a 1:56

  • @cmullen69 *at

  • The only Van Halen solo I can play... That man is a genius!

  • @strideL96 haha yeah the 90`s loser dudes moaning like a lame ass monotone cow ! No talent prozac taking lame O `s ! They all sounded like they just picked up their instruments 6 months ago ! LOL Hell they sound as if they couldnt tune them ! Oh yeah, not to mention hideous trampstamps and those clothes .... Look as if the crawled out of a bum goodwill box ! Yeah the great 90`s ! I will give you one they topped the ugly early 70`s Gheesh ! LOL LOSERS ! Pop another prozac bastards !

  • @atomicplayboy4u My hats off to you for describing the shittiest fucking music, next to rap, ever to pollute the airwaves.

  • at 1:56 It's suppose to be "I took a mobile light, lookin' for a moonbeam" but he messes up the lyrics and they kept it.

  • great lp

    

  • Alex can rock the drums!

  • 3:03 is so fun to play on drums. So loud...

  • Comment removed

  • @StoneyMcJuicyBuds Can't get too much of it singing about aliens and S.T.D.s

  • @StoneyMcJuicyBuds LOL> Dude, you are hilarious. Hagar is a hag though, no doubt.

  • I seen a moopa lotta lookin for a moon beam

  • kinda copied from 'aint talkin bout love' structure.

  • "how much, I'll pay ya for them , What the fuck "

  • I heard that lyrical F up too - Howard Stern brought it up. Check out the dissonant chord at the beginning of Roxanne - Sting accidentally sat on the piano. I'm glad to hear another Stern fan.

  • at 1:58 you can hear the david lee roth lyrical fuck up. pretty funny.

  • Bon Scott IS ACDC, Ozzy IS Sabbath, and David Lee Roth IS Van Halen—Period.

  • @redpaul79 i disagree. Brian Johnson and Ronnie James Dio fucking rule. Back In Black and Mob Rules are rock classics. And Geezer Butler wrote the lyrics Ozzy sang anyway.

  • @milkmankennedy as a human being, osbourne is a piece of shit, but his voice is 12,000 times better than dio

  • 1:54 I take a poo poo.....

  • I've always liked those kind of high heels too.

  • 3 People are dumbasses!! Why in the hell would YouTube even allow a dislike button on a Van Halen Song? WTF is up with that? YouTube should get rid of the goddamn dislike button altogether! Anyone agree?

  • VAN HALEN RULES!!!

    I saw these guys exactly 30 years ago today (6/20/1981) at The Forum in Los Angeles, and I'll tell you what people!!!  It was one hell of a show!!

    When they did this song, David Lee Roth asked for some lights, and when they came on, he said, "NO, THAT'S FUCKING RED!!!! CHANGE IT TO GREEN!!!"

    VAN HALEN FUCKING RULES!!!!

  • Diamond Dave fucks up at 3.35

  • 3 people wont get some

  • Three People are Crazy parents, and disliked the song, only because the name was ''offensive''. I bet they got some to this song back in the day too. VH KICKS ASS

  • @ABCBOBZ HELL YEAH!!! VAN HALEN KICKS SERIOUS ASS!!!  THOSE THREE WERE PROBABLY FROM THE PMRC LOL.

  • Wow, the 3 people that disliked this suck.

  • @piloneman You got that right man!!! WTF is up with these 3 people anyway?

    VAN HALEN KICKS SERIOUS ASS!!!

  • Listen closely and you'll hear Diamond Dave coughing and saying "oooh, where'd ya get that shit, oh yeah" people say Dave was a big coke head, bullshit, Dave likes weed, that's why he's the coolest rock star ever, keep smoking Dave, you've earned it!

  • @StoneyMcJuicyBuds I though he said "where'd you get those shoes", but I guess what you said is more realistic.

  • @StoneyMcJuicyBuds I might be hearing it wrong, I'm going to go listen to it, regardless, Dave's the man

  • Not, only is the BEST SONG EVER, but, also the best movie song!

  • HE IS AWESOME ONE OF THE BEST

  • I'm not saying this is Van Halen's best album, but I would argue it's the most "Van Haleny" Van Halen album. It's positively oozing with their style and personality. All original songs, too.

  • The crunching sound was done with a beer can.

  • 3 PEOPLE ARE ZOMBIES

    

  • @BrandnewdayXY THESE 3 PEOPLE ARE ZOMBIES ON CRACK!!!

  • 3 people want some and will never get it

  • The cover looks like a motivational poster...

  • WINNING = Eddie's crunchy guitar + Dave's swagger + tons of lust

  • This song makes me want to get stoned and bang strippers.

  • @StoneyMcJuicyBuds Really, cause this song makes me want to bang Sarah Palin and stone Michelle Bachman...Bible style!

  • @StoneyMcJuicyBuds funny,it makes me want to get banged and stone strippers...I kid,I kid

  • Just curious about todays up and coming singers. Why does every contestant on American Idol or the Voice have to have a soul singer's voice? If some contestant wanted to sing DLR style , then they would be disqualified or not even get a chance to compete? What the f#@k is going on here?

  • @SirReal1958 Agree, its annoying as shit that everybody tries to sing in the same style of voice.

  • 3 people can't get some

  • 3 people don't need some

    

  • SAMMY WHO????

  • Excuse me ladies and gents, those 2 dumb asses just multiplied into 3 yes count them, 3 dumb asses

  • Hey people, I'm 49 and I've been listening to Van Halen since 1978 when they released their first album. Anyone listening to Van Halen for the first time, listen up!!!

    Their first 6 albums with David Lee Roth Kick Serious Ass!!

    Although the next 4 they did with Sammy Hagar are not bad either.

    But Diamond Dave will always be the "Voice" of Van Halen!!!

  • @1962drob I couldn't have said it better myself except for one thing. Sammy Hagar sucked until he joined VH. The stuff they did was decent and some of it was great, but none of it even came close to the raw power and energy of the first six!!!!!!!!!

  • @1962drob I cant wait for their new one!

  • @poolpig Yeah, me too. Do you know when it's supposed to come out? It's going to kick ass with David Lee Roth on Vocals!!!

  • @1962drob from what I read the end of summer!

  • @poolpig COOL!!! That should be one hell of a tour!!!

  • @1962drob Oh hell yea!

  • @1962drob YOU ARE SO RIGHT MAN!! GOD LOVE THE 80'S !!

  • @scp101418 DEFINATELY MAN!!! THE '80'S RULED AS FAR AS ROCK AND HEAVY METAL ARE CONCERNED!!!

    DUDE, YOU HAD VAN HALEN, RATT, GREAT WHITE, DOKKEN, POISON, AC/DC, Y&T, CINDERELLA, TWISTED SISTER, AND MANY MORE KICK-ASS BANDS IN THE '80'S.

    YOU ROCK DUDE!!!!

  • @1962drob I like every Hagar album moderately except OU812. I don't care for that one. 5150: Some awesome tunes. For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge: Hard Rockin'. Balance: Unique. It has some weird songs like Diver Down did, as well as some epic ones.

    Rock on =VH=!!!!

  • @1962drob How true that is! I'm 46 now and was a Van Halen fanatic back in the late 70s. Nothing has touched that level of rock since then.

  • @drubedo Right On Bro!!! Nothing will ever touch that level of rock ever.

    VAN HALEN RULES!!!

  • @1962drob hagar sucks,solo.van hagar,montrose was decent..hagar just sux

  • im 24..why hasn't anyone introduced me to Van Halen before?? I was searching for take that could it be magic (lol)..and came across Van Halens version..now this..wow..

  • @KissOnTheHandIsGrand your friends are bad people. hahaha

  • what kind of homo ape gave this a thumbs down?

  • EVERYBODY WANTS SOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • 1:58 Ya take a moople-ah, wookie pah-a moopie

    lulz

  • @qoaa

    HA!!! fuckin' great...what'd he say????

  • Wow.....I just heard this for the first time! WHY don;t they make music like this?

  • @spyderkat hey man i am 47 years old and grew up with this shit. if you are just hearing this for the first time you must be young,and thats cool. i saw vanhalen in 1981 82,83, and 84 when they broke up, kick ass shows. if you dont have any halen albums go buy the first 5 albums with roth,you will love them. everybody wants some was always one of my favorites to.just buy them all the same day thats the way to do it. you will know they were one of the best bands ever, seen everybody love the 80s

  • @corvettebmw - 47 also. Saw VH on the Diver Down tour at the Meadowlands in NJ - Eddie was King for a day.

  • @nighthawk79200 .....lmao!!!!!xD!!!!!!

  • VAN HALEN---''EVERYBODY WANTS SOME''

  • what the fuck does he say at the beginning of the second verse, sounds like he's trying to talk to a fucking babay!

  • @Niesha18C lol, it's supposed to be "ive seen a lot of people looking for a moonbeam," but he fucked it up, and ad-libbed it

  • @cford1992 lol he they must of got tired of redoing the songor didnt have enough money to fix it.... dam dlr

  • @Niesha18C Dave often made up gibberish words to fit the music. He openly admits this. So, if there is a line that is like, wtf is this? It's gibberish.

  • @hummarstra that explains alot then LOL :)

  • Great party and lose any last brain cell music.

  • This song rocks !!!

  • I always want some!

  • Anyone else have this album on an old 8 track?

  • this song made Zombieland 100 times better

  • late at night....long stretch of road.....and this as loud as you can take it.

  • is this not the greatest band that ever exsisted???,,i think it is!

  • 2 people apparently didn't get the message that EVERYBODY wants some.
