  • “As my pop continued to struggle with various health issues, I was imagining what my life would be like without him and how terribly I’d miss him. While the song is incredibly personal, I think anyone can relate to the idea of having a profound loss in their life. I never intended ‘Distance’ to be the very first piece of music people would hear from me, but I also thought my father would be here to celebrate its release. This is for him. I love and miss you, Pop.” - WVH
    Proceeds from “Distance” will be donated to Pop’s favorite charity, Mr. Holland's Opus Foundation

    Back in the late 90s Eddie used to come into a electronics store I worked at called The Good Guys. Sometimes he would bring Wolfgang. Eddie was always so cool to everyone. One time we were talking and i told him about my music and he gave me his home phone number. He told me to call him sometime to come up and do music. I was floored. I called a week later and we talked for an hour...but not about music. About personal stuff...life...he told me of his cancer. I called again a week later and we talked an hour again about life and stuff. My old brain is so fuzzy I wish I could remember more about those conversations. It was a great experience.

    This song written and performed by Wolfgang Van Halen is timeless.
    His song "Distance" in my opinion is a Masterpiece.
    Fans are finding out Wolfgang is a highly skilled multi-instrumentalist and excellent songwriter.
    As time passes, fan's of Wolfgang are finding out he speaks his mind very effectively and he doesn't suffer fools.
    I'm looking forward to watching Wolfgang and his band continue to grow and succeed.
    Best wishes..

    • @centaurus5676
      @centaurus5676 Před 3 lety

      He stayed at home because he didn't need to tour, he had $100 million fortune. Most people have no choice, they have to work long hours and spend little time at home so they can pay the mortgage and feed the family. That's WHY he chose to stay at home....he had nothing to prove anymore!

    I was lucky enough to spend an afternoon with your dad at 5150 on January 17th 2017. The way he lit up when he spoke about you was so inspiring. As a father of two myself, his love for you and the pride he felt for you really touched me. I know first hand by hearing it from his own mouth how much you meant to him. I wish you all the success in the world Wolf ❤️🤘

    Man this is easily one of the most beautiful songs ever made. I’m a dad of two little ones 3 and 1, and they changed my life. There’s hard days here and there but I couldn’t imagine my life without them. Folks without kids just can’t comprehend the pure joy your children bring. It’s a euphoria that transcends anything in the world. I can’t listen to this song without crying thinking one day I’ll leave earth without them. Hallelujah to Jesus for the love you’ve given me through my wife and kids. ❤

    My dad took his life when I was 15, he was at Big Sur in CA. I was in Maryland. He served 2 tours in Vietnam as a warrant officer in the Army, flying helicopters. It was Nov 11th 1982.. the day the Vietnam memorial was dedicated.. he would've wanted me to a musician, as he didn't want me to join the military. Sometimes I feel his hand on my shoulder when I play guitar.. 45 years playing guitar is better than the nightmares that war brings. God bless you Wolfgang, and thank the powers that be for Edward giving the most incredible rock music to this rock we're living on.
