CLASSIC ROCK FANS , What Song Puts You in Mind of This Season's Bengals
#54
(02-05-2022, 02:36 AM)Forever Spinning Vinyl Wrote: Probably the most mature song David Lee Roth wrote outside of Van Halen. Great 80s ballad and it got little to no airplay. I was shocked when his label never pushed it as a single and also later when they left it off of his album, "Best".
The theme throughout the song:
Those were good times
These are good times
We'll be having good times
The maker of this video is a Van Halen fan paying tribute. Kind of sad in a few parts with the passing of Eddie.




Time rolls on
And that's as it should be
Here and gone
Seems to move so quickly

Man, we was happy in our restless hearts
It was heaven right here on Earth
Yeah, we were laughin' as we reached for the stars
And we had some for what it was worth

Those were good times
Damn good times
Those were good times
Damn good times

Hey, take a look at this picture
Can you believe that was you?
And who's that standin' there in the corner?
Not me
Ahh, the crazy things we used to do

Sure, we was acting like a couple of kids
Good to remember, you know that it is
I still feel it like the sun on my skin
Maybe that's better

'Cause these are good times
Damn good times
Talkin' 'bout good times
Damn good times

So it's one for the money - 31 years! Raiders
But that don't make the show, no no - Titans
Count to three and I'll be ready, yeah - Chiefs
To follow that road, yes I will - To the Super Bowl

I see it comin', yeah, and this one is ours
We got heaven right here on Earth
Ain't nothin' like it when you're reachin' for stars
And you grab one for what it is worth
 - or you can grab two if you get the chance

You can tell 'em
We'll be having good times
Damn good times
I'm talkin' good times, yessir
Damn good times

Mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm

Mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm, good times
Mmm, mmm, mmm, good times
Mmm, mmm

cool tune, the riff reminds me of an Alice and Chains tune too  (Stay Away)...Im a Big VH fan ...so this was DLR solo and this was not Eddie playing right?
