At their core, Van Halen is a fun time party band… with masterful virtuosity.
I saw them live in '91 (For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge tour) - it was basically a party on stage and we were all invited! I feel lucky to have seen EVH do a solo right in front of me (20th row, floor) at my first ever concert! Still have the ticket stub!
California party rock.
It was Van Halen's first top twenty hit back in 1979!
I played this like 20 times on the Pizza Inn jukebox when this came out.
Great to see young people digging the music I grew up on Van Halen 78-84 pure gold. R.I.P EDDIE.......
This is one of my favorites by them " dancing gets her higher than anything else she know's"
well you two already seen Eddie live... know this, there's not anything he couldn't do R.I.P.... from Runnin' with the Devil to Jump... VH were just that great.... 10 seconds into this one ...Asia's smile told us all we needed to know... thumbs up guys!
When you look at it, because this came out in 1979, it gives a beach party vibe. Something you'd hear on the beach with everyone dancing on the sand, waves washing up adding to the laid back demeanor of the party. The mighty VH knew how to grab you and show you how to have fun.
Great take, I have always thought that the whole VH II album had a Summer time feel to it. It's one of my go to albums when I'm on the boat or cruisin' in my car in the Summer.
Van Halen are known most for their blistering hard rock party tunes but this number right here, exemplifies their ability to write pop-hooks in a hard rock format from all that time they spent playing backyard parties, graduations, weddings, bat mitzvahs, doing so many cover songs, each member having different influences, and those backing vocals, Roth really is an MC for the band while they are backing him up
I really like this song. It reminds me when I met my wife. Back when we were in high school, I heard she had a crush on me, and I never thought anything about it. All I would do is walk past her and say high. Then the night of our high school dance saw I this beautiful girl with her friends. I did not recognize who she was. All I wanted to do was dance with her, so I asked one of her friends who she was with. When she told me who it was my jaw dropped. Her friend said what's wrong; you only say hi to her and as you pass by. All she wanted to do is talk to you. At this point I felt like a complete idiot. I was so caught up in myself. I was so nervous to ask her to dance. When I had enough courage to ask, and she said yes, I was elated. Now 34 years later I still dance with her. She tells me it feels like the first day I asked her to dance. She tells me, LOL I have changed a boy into a man.
This is my favorite Van Halen song. It is HEAT
This is one band I regret not seeing in concert. Love all their songs!!
I got to see them once back when I was about 12 or 13! Dave can’t sing but shoot it was still a fun show!! 😂
Let’s dance! Never been to a party, that when this played, everyone didn’t hit the floor! Thanks for the great reaction!
Glad you enjoyed it
Never been an American band that burst, not came onto but BURST onto the scene with the power/energy/sound of this Legendary band. Nothing quite like it. I remember hearing them as a teenager in the late 70's and thinking I had never heard anything with that power and energy.
Love this song - one of my favorites from VH! Such a fun song...David Lee Roth was the ultimate showman
I'm so lucky that I was able to grow up listening to Van Halen, and see them in concert for the first time in 1984. Love your reactions!!
Nothing like driving with your windows down blasting this tune in a summers day.
I seen Van Halen in concert twice in Vegas back in1981and 82. Such a great and energetic show that was.
My favorite Van Halen song ever. So much fun.
MINE ALSO
Van Halen were definitely dope, great band with great music
This has got to be one of the prettiest melodic songs i think I've ever heard, Eddie Van Halen was extremely aware of how to put music together without a doubt.
Van Halen always all about the party 🤘🤘
This is one of my favorite songs. My daughter did a ballet number to this song. It was different for sure but she got a big roar of approval from the other students and parents
One thing that VH doesn't get that much credit for is the backing vocals. Michael Anthony does such a great job on the Bass..But kills it on the backing vocals.
Mike, Ed and Ted Templeman provided backing vocals on VH and VH2
@@RobertMJohnson Most people are totally unaware of that
@@Boomer5150 indeed. Gotta read the books!
To me that Van Halen two album is just like a great summertime album. You need to check out the tune beautiful girls off the same album you’ll get that same summertime vibe!
It tears me up seeing people Hear this for the first time ~😪
Just an amaziing band in soo many ways~
Great review. I knew the moment it started she was gonna love and tempo. Yesss
Yes! It was the first single on Van Halen II. It was out with the B-side "Out of Love Again" when they still made records. It reached #15 on the pop chart.
What a great song! That's my favorite by Van Halen. Just fun, party and rock vibe.
This was so great at parties back in the 80s...sigh. My first ever concert was VH!!!
Awe 😥😥😥
This reminds me of exact how my hubby and I met !!!
My beautiful husband of 25 years who died in a horrid car accident just 9 months ago
I MISS HIM TERRIBLY 💔💔💔
DANCE THE NIGHT AWAY MY ANTHONY 🙏🙏🙏
Wow I’m so sorry 😓
Sorry to hear that
VH's first album was to get them on the map. Ed's guitar (especially Eruption) was like nothing anybody ever heard before. He was the architect and the game changer in 1978. Dave sang like someone out of a primeval jungle. And he looked the part as well. A very effective frontman. Michael Anthony on bass and stratospheric backup vocals. The secret weapon he was called. That chime-like guitar coming out of the break is not picking. It's Ed tapping on the fretboard with his right index finger while his left is positioned for a chord. He was all about finding the sounds and tones out of sheer desperation. He could not afford fuzz boxes, wah-wah pedals, phasers or any of the gear most guitarists used at the time. He built his own guitars and engineered them to duplicate any sophisticated sounds other guitarists could afford to buy to enhance their sound. Eddie should also be in the Songwriters Hall Of Fame for his ability to write songs around his complex guitar arrangements. Quite the feat.Listen to Beautiful Girls from the same album as Dance The Night Away, Van Halen II.
I was 15 years old when that song\Album came out and I still enjoy and listen to the original Van Halen music.
BJ, the word you're looking for is "POP". This is a "commercial pop" tune. VH were so masterful at their hard rock, they had no qualms about going pop on a song, and not losing their "mojo" at all.
love this song - it rocked the dance clubs of the day!! NOTE: i was a volunteer at the Sober Dances @ the Women's Club in LA back in the 1980's ... the 'grow up vibe' is its a song about having a rockin time at the club rather than 'getchu girl' but thats just my OP !! Luv your stuff
Van Halen is UNIVERSAL
BJ….It's called fun it's what we did….In our teen years we danced all night long till Dawn. Van Halen #1 party band.
If you look at EVERY song you cover that's from the 70's you both have smiles on your faces that join your ears at the back of your head!😜👍👍 And that's exactly what we had growing up in the GREATEST DECADE OF MUSIC- THE 70's
95% of that era of music always had wonderful harmonies. No matter the context of a song it always was graced by wonderful harmonies....
Greatest decade of music=70's
MY WORDS ALSO ,, The 70s were THE BEST Times Ever ,, We danced more in the 70s than any other decade ,,,, Im a big time 70s BRAT
Love this song! Also I agree with another- give the band RATT a try- Gotta be “Lay it down” first, then “Round and Round”! Huge hits! I think y’all will really enjoy them! “Lay it down” is my fave of RATT! Official video please. 🙂💖💙
I love RATT too! Used to have a huge crush on Pearcy in high school. I agree Lay It Down is my favorite@
HELL YEAH!
That summer of '79 was great...had my first car and a stereo system that cost more than that POS 😄 used to blast this song all night long 😎
Do check out the movie 'Mission to Mars'. This song was featured and sticks out as the moment I fell in love with this song. Each time I hear this, I grab my wife and start dancing the swing (well, my own modified swing) with her. Glad you like it too! 😎
This song has a latin vibe, like a tango, or a rumba, or cha cha.
Van Halen is awesome 👏
Asia knows!!! 2 beats in and she says “Uh Oh. This about to be one!” Cracks me up
Love VH!!! Gotta listen to Running with the devil!! One of my favorites!!! As t their beginning they were HOT!!
Michael Anthony's (bass player) background vocals are just incredible. He has a super clear 1st tenor voice. When I first heard Van Halen I thought they had a girl in the band. His background voice is a big part of the Van Halen sound for sure!
❤️🥰❤️🥰 It’s the first song I remember from Van Halen. Love it.
Exactly. This is the one song written to be a single, they normally didn't do that back then.
"Feel Your Love Tonight ", check it out 😁
There's just nothing left to say but back in the day we listened to the radio and had all kinds of great music.
gotta Love'em ❤️🎸
I much preferred Van Halen in the David Lee Roth era 🤘😝. They had better songs & music overall with him as lead singer.
Glad you're not a cop.
David Lee Roth (vocals) loved disco music in the 70's... he wanted Van Halen to be a rock band that people could dance & move to. The harmonies that u hear were Michael Anthony (bass) and Eddie Van Halen (guitar) who had been perfecting that delivery since the mid-70's, when Van Halen were a cover band trying to perform hits at their club shows. Since Roth was not the best singer live, it fell on Michael Anthony to cover vocals to make the band sound good in concert.
Van Halen (w/ Roth) also covered the hit 'Dancing in the streets'... and Linda Ronstadt's "You're no good"
This is a fkn uplifting jam to me!💪🏿
Loved Van Halen
Van Halen II ...my dad bought this for me and gave it to me without me asking or saying etc.....this was my first intro to VH...Spanish Fly is a cool one to check out....solo on nylon. Crazy good.
Love how Asia is feeling this one!
Let’s see you boogie BJ this is from my younger days 😊
If you haven't heard "Runnin with the Devil" it's worth a listen....virgin voyage on their first album (1979) , don't be scared...go for it!!!!!
1st album was 1978, VH II was 1979
Love all your reactions to Van Halen! Another 80's band to check is RATT. Some of their best songs and video's are Lay it down, Round and round, just to name a few.
Yessss! 👍👍
My favorite VH song, happy and makes you move!!!
Michael Anthony (bassist) and Eddie sometimes get overlooked for their backing vocals. Michael was such an important part of their sound. Eddie's tone on this was perfect for the song.
BJ is right, this was their effort to get more commercial play. I'm thinking this was off their 'Diver Down' album
hard to be in a bad mood when you listen to this song
Hard to believe Eddy has passed away already. This brings back some sweet high school memories!
Absolutely right BJ
Being 17 when VH came out in 1978 walking into the record store and seeing the Big VH and the four members and songs like "Runnin' with the Devil", "Ain't Talkin' 'bout Love", "Jamie's Cryin'", their cover version of the Kinks "You Really Got Me", and the instrumental "Eruption"; My buddies and I had found a different rock n roll sound. Seen them numerous times a great fun show with Dave anyway
Wonderful this is one the songs i started dancing to long ago😊
Love Asia's T shirt message along with your reaction to this classic VH tune! Family Over Everything!! Much Love to you both this New Year! Thanks for another great reaction.
Thanks so much!!
FYI ... this was the first top 20 hit for Van Halen peaked at #15 on the Billboard Top 100. It was also in the year end top 100 at 95. BJ was spot on recognizing it as being radio airplay friendly. Especially during 1979 when anything that drove dancing was huge and this one did that along with the idea of just having a good ol party all night.
This song was featured in the 2000 movie Mission to Mars about the first manned mission to Mars in the year 2020. Now that it is 2024 we are still not any closer in getting to Mars. Probably won't happen in my lifetime. I always loved the song though.
One of the overlooked strengths of Van Halen were their excellent background vocals.
Everything they do is a Strength~
Great tune by Van Halen! Eddie (Being a big Who fan) wanted to write a Who'ish sounding song he sure nailed it!!
My ex wife now passed lived in Balboa CA and used go to Van Halen during their house parties. She said they were so loud she could not hear a thing. Sorry to see you pass Carolyn.
Just a Beautiful Summer Vibe Catchy Tune 😎💯 It's one of my Favourite Van Halen Songs , just simple and a real gem 🔥
This was really their first more mainstream song.
VanHalen's cover of Martha and the Vandellas "Dancin' In The Streets" would be a good follow -up
I love this song.
My favorite of theirs .
Hey y'all, I can tell you from experience that they were the ''thing'' in the late '70's - early '80's! Everyone knew who they were.....very distinctive sound!
The guitar Eddie played was his own creation. He personally knew the makers of Les Paul and Fender. He tweeked his guitars to get the sounds he wanted
Asia, you ain’t wrong with the side eye on some of the lyrics. 😂. But I will say in high school in the 80s this was a good girl’s pump up song, so I have to love it. 😁. “You’re old enough to dance….”
I will also say my very good friend and biggest Van Halen fan I knew, when I asked if she was going to try for the MTV Van Halen hidden weekend context, although she adored them, said, “Hell, no.” 🤣. She knew better.
That solo is tougher than it sounds. All tapped harmonics.
Ohhhh when David Lee Roth could actually sing. Really sad that he lost his voice … and the California blonde sun kissed hair I loved back in the 80s. They had a real variety of sounds. This was 80s. The 70s stuff was a little harder. Eddie…. Still can’t accept he’s gone. Heartbroken but I can see that smile in heaven now. ❤️❤️❤️
At his best Roth was a good singer but never a great singer. He had a talk/sing style.
@@chrisa4695 Never said he had a great voice. Good screamer tho!
Dave gave us EVERYTHING HE HAD for the first 6 albums. without him there never would have been a van halen.
It’s like they took a ‘60’s crooner song and made it rock.
Great fun time tune. Love it.
For reaction purposes you should listen to "Hot For Teacher", but make sure you watch the MTV video that goes with it! It's hilarious! And "Ice Cream Man" is also cool. They have a lot of good stuff. "Jamie's Crying", "Running With the Devil", "Jump"....
this is the song that hooked me on Van Halen.
Thanks for reacting to my very favourite Van Halen song!
It took a lot to get me out on the dance floor back in the day. This is one of the few that did
This was the first album I ever bought for myself.
Love the energy of this one!
Us too!
She get's it! Watch her eyes light up, her smile when she get's swept away by the story and the groove and meaning. Then watch her body language change when he react's like a typical clueless man who says stupid ass shit! (myself included) how adorable when she applies her lip pen kinda tensed up but then starts to sway to the music again. God Bless all the pretty ladies for puttin up with us Men and our clueless moments! Peace!☠💀☠ Over and out!
Very radio-friendly “poppy” song by VH. No blistering guitar solo by Eddie. From their classic second album, released 43 years ago(!)
Like their song Jump, Van Halen was trying to get some radio play aka the record company put a lot of pressure on hard rock/metal acts to put at least one 'radio friendly' song per album.
This was a pretty poppy VH song. Good for dance clubs though. Check out Unchained, And the Cradle Will Rock, Everybody Wants Some, Runnin' With the Devil
Essa música foi a celebração de um festa.
Im a big 70s Brat And this is why The Music Baby 70s style
Yes Yes "Ice Cream Man" my favorite Van Halen song but this one has great vibe to it also.David Lee Roth may have been egotistical as hell but can't deny he was a great front man. He knew how to get an audience going.
I agree James!
Guinness Book Of World records has Van Halen as the highest paid rock band in concert. At $1.5 Million for a 90 minute set in 1983.
Love this song!
This is Van Halen !
David Lee Roth= Van Halen
Sammy Hager = Van Hagar
Reminds me of a summer good time
Great song choice!! I just got off work and now I'm chilling with you guys! Thanks for sharing!! If you wanna hear a good Love song of theirs, check out Feels So Good (with their second lead vocalist, Sammy Hagar), and if you'd like to hear one of their BANGERS, check out Summer Nights!! Have a blessed day!! 🙏❤ PS: Cabo Wabo is nice too 😊
Thanks for listening
