    This is for David Lee Roth, just want to Thank you, for your music , when I was 15 , i hit the streets and my mother the only thing that I ever got from her that she didn't take away was a David Lee Roth cassette tape and I listened to it for years on my walkman and believe me I was a walkman ! Lol but you gave me hope when I wanted to give up on life, God works in strange ways brother. So many songs so many lonely , cold nights and your music kept me warm and gave me Hope, thank you sir.

    R.I.P. Brett Tuggle, the keyboardist (2:20) who co-wrote this song with David Lee Roth.
    Tuggle had a long career. He played keyboard for Fleetwood Mac, toured with Steve Lukather from Toto and also played with Steppenwolf, Rick Springfield, Chris Isaak and Whitesnake.
    He was a great musician, a family man and a good friend of my parents, even played with some local bands with my father, Rene Ulibarri in their high school years. After being diagnosed with lung cancer at the start of the pandemic, he would continue playing with Lindsey Buckingham and would make the most of his time to be with his family. He passed on June 19, 2022 at age 70.
    Brett, you're living in paradise now.
    Rest In Peace, our friend.

      All true! I'm 33 and remember distinctly my first glimpse of DLR - and I was very aware what a singular guy he was. He's my #1 favorite front man and singer(believe it or not). A whole slew of posers ripe his style and vibe, but they all cheapend it.

I hope the same can be said about cancer.

    THIS SONG ROCKS EVEN IN 2022!! Oh Man, I've been bienging on Van Halen, David Lee Roth, Sam Haggard, for the last week, I missed so much of their work in the late 80's and 90's, only now sadly making up for it... Such great Talents, such great music, SUCH GREAT TIMES, the 1980's followed by the 90's and the 00's... David Lee Roth 4EVA! 💥💖🇺🇲

He was my neighbor and already a teenager but he would let me hang and was also teaching me how to skateboard. Even though he was so much older he would treat me like I wasn't a little kid. With respect. It meant alot to me. And teaching me how to skateboard helped me in my life cuz it was my passion for many years and even different periods in my life. Every time I hear this song I think of my friend and that ride with the windows down jamming to this thinking I was so grown. I was definitely in paradise lol. Those moments impact u in many ways.

    David has a style of his own, can write great music & knows how to rock n roll. Love this song and video. Rocked to this song when it came out and still rockin' to it in 2020.
