Van Halen

III

This album went over so poorly, Van Halen doesn't even acknowledge it existed when they released their greatest hits package. It's unfortunate, because Ed is playing really well. There's some seeds of good ideas for songs that never really quite get there, but at least we're not subjected to Sammy's sap-dripping lyrics. Not nearly as bad as everyone thinks. --johnk5150

NAME THAT TUNE
WHAT SONG IS THAT FROM?

“Way back at the dawn of time, Adam and Eve did a terrible crime. He followed her down on lovers lane, now I'm payin' for his mistake. Aphrodite and Godiva too, gotta take the blame for what I'm going through. It's never gonna change; only getting worse. Women of the world-- Lord, it's gotta be a curse.”
