First of all, Sammy has said that this is not Van Halen, but VH is part of his own huge catalog. The Roth era will be sung by Mikey mostly and you know some Led Zeppelin is going to be featured, perhaps some songs from Bonham's own band. Add a few songs from Joe like "Summer Song" and some mystery guests sitting in, you will have a well rounded show and probably the last time you see a 77 year old Sammy extensively tour ever.
People forget how good of a secondary backup vocalist Eddie was. Ed's baritone harmonies with Mike's tenor really worked well together. You really hear it when it's missing.
@@paologiannetta5297 It's a next-level tribute band, though. Admittedly, I never got the attraction of a tribute band. Maybe Sam and Mike feel they owe it to the fans - why else would they do it? Helluva lineup, no matter which way you slice it. But agreed, VH is dead and buried.
I just saw the Sammy Biography on A&E. What a true class act all around. I mean you honestly can find a nicer guy and an incredible dedicated family man too!! I truly have loved his music since I was a kid but gained a whole knee level of respect outside the industry for Mr. Hagar.
One of my earliest memories was hearing this song. I was about 4 years old, playing outside during a beautiful summer sunset. The neighbor's house was being finished and the roofers had a radio playing. "When It's Love" came on and had been engraved in my soul ever since!
So this one obviously still has some work to do (PoundCake was much more tour ready) but it's still good enough to get my money when they come to town.
Those 3 notes that get repeated at the end are wrong. Cmon guys. I have no problem with satch but the issue with using celeb name guitar players for tributes, is that you select them for their name (to help sell tickets), but since they’re celebs in their own right, they refuse to play the parts right and just play their “interpretation” of the music. If you’re going to do a tribute, then pay tribute respectfully and play the parts right.
For those commenting how bad it is, you do realize they're rehearsing and using practice amps (Head and speaker). They aren't stacked the way they would be at a show to give more of a full sound. You do realize there are zero effects on any of the voices like there would be live at a show. Are they old? Sure. But again, it's just a rehearsal using practice equipment and no effects.
Mike and Ray (piano) are singing and are both incredible singers who don’t miss. They sound off because Sammy is off. They are singing in pitch with Joes single note guitar part at the end.
Then dont bother listening or watching…we shouldnt expect clones and copycat because Ed and Joe are two different human being with different nervous system ….
I get the impression that the idiot naysayers here, do not realize it is not Van Halen. Satch is not going to sound like Eddie with joes style. Nobody can. So, whiners, just try to enjoy the tribute, or, change the channel and do not listen.
@Rock_Snob if you check the tour schedule it's way too many shows crammed together. Not enough nights off. A 20 year old's voice can't endure this schedule. Most groups with 60+ singers do one show every three days. Check Hagar's tour dates. He's nuts. And, his vocal parts are high and hard to sing. It's gonna sound horrible but he'll make that money!!!!
@Rock_Snob I'm not going. But don't get your panties in a wad because I made this observation. What a defensive crybaby comment on your part. Wow, you really told me off and put me in my place. I'm SO ashamed.
The Harmony Vocals are not on the Van Halen Level. Eddie, Mikey and Wolfgang were more locked in. No disrespect to Bonham and Satriani. Great Musicians
This is a sloppy hot mess. I don't know how or why this is going to go on tour. They've never gotten any better since the Stern Show trainwreck. They're all supposed to be playing the same song but they're so out of time and key that its laughable. I can clearly see why Dave, Alex and Wolfgang are not a part of this! This isn't a tribute to one of the greatest guitarists of all time...this is a complete insult to him and the music he was a part of. Even if it was Van Hagar.

Eddie was so dead on with his backing vocals, you never heard him. Way harder to sing the mid backing vocal. You can easily get lost
Exactly!! Everyone kept going on and on about Michael Anthony but Eddie's vocals were just as important to the VH sound.
missing a lot here, but still cool to hear
No Eddy... No Alex ---- No VH 😊

Atomy - I agree with you 100 percent!

Beautiful story 😊 It's amazing how music really does become a soundtrack for peoples lives ❤
@@derekgeldreich7760 For sure!
I love very specific and special memories like this. Thanks for sharing this one.
@@Thompsongs Thanks! Peace to you and yours.
Go Sammy!!!!
Awesome this is a Gift for us All to just enjoy Thanks Guys !
My favorite part of the song. THAT is what Sammy brought to the VH table. You just want to sing along with him.
WE NEED YOU GUYS AGAIN!!! Thank you Sammy satch bonh Mike!!!
Wow another amazing song I'm missing Eddie there😢
❤
All legends
Love ❤ this song....romantic good.... showww my Sammy... thanks 😎👍🇧🇷
Can’t wait to see them live in MA!!!
He sounds great still.
OK sounds FANTASTIC!
So this one obviously still has some work to do (PoundCake was much more tour ready) but it's still good enough to get my money when they come to town.
Not the biggest Sammy fan, but MAN, he is incredible for his age. A long way away from me seeing Him and Eddie at Farm Aid 1 in 1985.

Circlefoot! 🤘🤘🤘
Satch!!!!!! Not the ending notes! Dear God! Please, try again. They are SACRED notes!
👑 Edward VH 🎸/// sounds great 🔥
❤☝🏽
I’ll be there for damn sure😊🤟
Seeing Mike tapping the notes at the end man....just wanting to hear what should be there. Ed is missed.
Sammy is a legend, he will tell you himself 😂
🥲 BEAUTIFUL 😭

who the hell is singing back ups? horrid
It's Mike and Satch I guess.
Mike and Ray (piano) are singing and are both incredible singers who don’t miss. They sound off because Sammy is off. They are singing in pitch with Joes single note guitar part at the end.
Ray was not locking in with Michael. Hopefully they'll get there!
@@cpaoni1he sure is off. This often happens to shifty singers
@@luna945new keyboard player Ray is singing on that with Mikey
Yeesh 😮
Give them a break it’s a great job!
They have a lot of work to do,but I watch a lot of Van Halen TH-cam videos it’s not going to sound the same.
The same as what?
It just don't sound like Van Halen
It's not right without Ed.
Because it's not Van Halen.
@@ALTDOK667 Instead of butchering Classic Van Halen songs, they should write something new.
Then dont bother listening or watching…we shouldnt expect clones and copycat because Ed and Joe are two different human being with different nervous system ….
Wow Sammy is started to show his age; got the jowls and old man hair going. It's about time, he looked about 15 for 70 years.
That snare resembles very much the one and only AVH's one
I get the impression that the idiot naysayers here, do not realize it is not Van Halen. Satch is not going to sound like Eddie with joes style. Nobody can. So, whiners, just try to enjoy the tribute, or, change the channel and do not listen.
Those background tones, oof
Pretty rough lead vocals
Are Sam's vocals gonna hold up?
He booked too many nights in a row without enough days off on this tour. His voice is not gonna sound good. But he'll make money.
@@musicstream26are you from the future and already know what is going happen? It’s rehearsal.

@@musicstream26 then don’t go see them…

Geiler DW Sound. Ich liebe Van Halen
There should be a picture of Alex on one of those bass drums.
Chorus is tight! Keys are weak!
Sammy is Gonna Need a
Bigger Pillow
Tonight…..
Am Waiting For
The Sammy Hagar
Bobble Head
I'm sorry, but this sounds terrible, I hope they improve for the tour.
❤❤❤❤😂🤘🤘🤘
needs work
The back ups singing sounds horrible..
This absolutely sucks. So terrible. Please just stop guys. The time has passed. Just leave it. This is so bad.
The Harmony Vocals are not on the Van Halen Level. Eddie, Mikey and Wolfgang were more locked in. No disrespect to Bonham and Satriani. Great Musicians
How were Mikey and Wolfgang locked in, they didn't play together did they?
No goatee! Sammy looks too serious without it!
This song blows
God bless EVH, but Sammy was a legend before VH. But VH made him a God. ❤✨️🎶🎟🎟🎟
Awesome thanks but please rethink naming yourselves VH. How about Redhallen
Quem disse que essa banda chama van Halen
What are you talking about?
That’s brutal. 😂
Retire boys
Yikes, sounds rough...
Not feeling it. Sorry
sounds like a skilled cover band....Nobody does the Eddie/Alex swing
Any Van Halen tribute band is a. Million times better
Dragging
Keep practicing
This is a sloppy hot mess. I don't know how or why this is going to go on tour. They've never gotten any better since the Stern Show trainwreck. They're all supposed to be playing the same song but they're so out of time and key that its laughable.
I can clearly see why Dave, Alex and Wolfgang are not a part of this! This isn't a tribute to one of the greatest guitarists of all time...this is a complete insult to him and the music he was a part of. Even if it was Van Hagar.
I don't recall anyone saying it was a tribute to Eddie.
I’m not paying to see this train wreck.
Thanks for sharing
Sammy can’t write anything good anymore so he’s trying to cash in on this crap.
Van Halen they are not!!!!!!
And it is a shame that Alex nor David can step up. This is not Van Halen. You are correct. It is a tribute.
Who claimed it is VH?
Alex would never partake in hagars shit show,after all the comments that momo made,and second dlr was gonna participate but Hagar shut that down!!!!
@@giraffesareselfish9563 no body especially me,it’s a shit show!!!!
I wouldn’t pay 10 dollars to see this,Sammy sounds awful.
Would you pay $5?
Horrible
The band & the singing sounds just awful. Those that rightly criticize Roths poor singing need to be honest about Hagars now.
Sounds like the song was in a ditch dying ffs
Sammy is the Joe biden of rock
What does that even mean? 🤦🏻♂
Why the insult 🧕
Sammy shit his pants?
The whole thing is off,really off
They tune lower now. Songs don’t have the same zip and pep.
Horrible
