HAHA! I tried synching it with the song...a bit tricky, but it worked until after the solo, then the timing changes. Cool though...wish there were more songs like this on youtube.
Dave is great but this a perfect illustration of why Van Halen needs Michael Anthony. i highly doubt Wolfgang can even come close to M.A.'s backing vocals.
This is so funny. Just found it the other day. It makes me laugh every time I hear it. It's weird how I can hear the music parts inside my head, while I listen to this.
wrong, it's a solo'd track, the music you're hearing is from his headphones bleeding into the microphone. When it cuts out completely that's the "noise gate" engaging.
man i didnt realize how much dave screams in this this song til i heard it without music lol. they're in the recording studio and he's either singing to the music with headphones on or he sang it with the music playing with no singing and then they mixed in the vocals.
During the recording of the early Van Halen albums, Dave sang in an isolation booth.....so whoever got this vocal track has access to the master tapes.....I read about this in Ian Christe's book "The Van Halen Saga"......get the book and read it......you will learn about the history of the mighty Halen!
That book "the van halen saga" is crap. Any idiot could have written it. All it is some dick who's read a bunch of VH interviews done by other media sources and kinda summarised them into a bio. There's absolutely no juicy behind the scenes stuff, doesn't even go anywhere near the alcohol/drugs/groupies stuff. Doesn't tell you anything that Wikipedia couldn't. DON'T GET THIS BOOK.
Re Divideo: this was done in a recording studio, you just "solo" the vocal track isolating it, then they bounced it and put it up for the world to hear!
This amount of 100% pure Rothiness ought to be illegal. I love the smell of Roth in the morning. It smells like hairspray ... and ... victory. The only thing that could make this clip any better was if I was making comment # 666.
Remember, this is about 20 years before any kind of auto-tune software, so there's no computer help for Dave's voice. I'd like to see some present day singers do as well.
in the old days when they MIXed things in the studio, they would already have the tracks seperated, Meaning each part of the band would come in and play against a recording of the previous member, so they could get a clean track , if they had to take retakes with the entire band people would have gone insane if someone made a mistake, This is David in the sound booth, with headphones on listening to the music, you can hear it at 2:01, he still kicked sammies ass!
God I fucking love it on youtube when someone who obviously knows a lot about something makes an insightful and honest comment only to earn negatives from the mongoloids with their heads up their asses.
the end is so funny
