Omg you guys missed the video 😭😭😭 the video was so iconic. You guys have to watch it some time - it makes the song so much more impactful. People are so judgmental about Van Hagar era Halen but I love them. I think you guys would love When It’s Love, Love Walks In, and Not Enough from the Hagar era 💕✨
Also, I miss Crystal Pepsi!! This song was used for the commercial and is burned into many of our minds. 😊
Yes, some songs just cannot be separated from their music video, and this is one of the best examples!
Thats funny Miss Melissa, it was also part of a SNL parody of "Crystal Gravy"...I miss the 90s...I love ALL VH
Things are business as usual in nature in the wild, right now.
When It’s Love is an outstanding power ballad that they need to check out
All I can say is Crystal Pepsi made a horrible Rum and coke.
RIGHT NOW I am wishing you were reacting to the official video because it has so much social context
Right?? That video really inspires the song more and totally relevant in today world
..and it is still relevant Jenny
Right now, multiple followers agree with you that the Rob squad crew needs to review the official video to get the full deep meaning of this video
The video was to political , Eddie and Sammy both hated it . They said it alienated half their audience .
Right now, most of you need to go start your own reaction channel and react to the version you want....
Alex Van Halen is such an underrated drummer. He goes so hard
Agreed.
My first favorite drummer!!!
Came on here to give him his respect, too!! Let's not forget Alex Van Halen! 🤘😎🤘
He has one of the most distinct sounds and styles in all of rock.
Criminally underrated
Eddie was an amazing keyboard player in addition to his stellar guitar skills. Sammy was not just a great singer, but a great guitar player and songwriter. And Michael Anthony with the high harmonies really was the consistent bridge between Diamond Dave and Sammy.
Yep. He studied classical piano growing up.
Sammy, just a great singer? You have to check them out playing live in Japan.
Here is that clip from Japan, them playing There's Only One Way To Rock!
ua-cam.com/video/N2qaYdYIuvI/v-deo.html
Enjoy!
Sammy playing guitar allowed Eddie to do other things especially live.
Sammy was also a very good guitarist
The music video for this song is so incredibly powerful. Gives even more meaning to an already amazing piece of music.
No. Stupid liberal message
The music video for 'Right now' was hailed as one of the best in the MTV era of music... Van Halen appeared in scattered sequences... Sammy Hagar is only seen singing the line "Only missed by a fraction..."
Yeah, the video, in this case, somehow elevates an already-epic piece! Song makes you feel; Video makes you think!
You know that’s Eddie’s brother on drums! He’s great too!❤❤❤❤❤ Eddie is out front and can shine!
Alex. I was going to say the same. Excellent drummer
I don't think they've ever known who the drummer is.
This was when Sammy Hagar had taken over lead vocals in the band and it helped the band grow to one of the biggest and most influential bands that has hastened ever been.
This is actually the third album with Sammy on lead vocal, but I agree and definitely felt it's the album where they really hit their writing stride as a band with Sammy, though I loved OU812 as well, the album prior. But I'm one that loves all eras of VH, I never understood some of those that felt you had to pick DLR or Sammy, love them for what they were in the time.
This has always been my personal favorite piece from Van Halen. It's the message that hits me. The official video adds to the lyrics.
I agree. If I had to pick my one favorite song from the VH catalogue, this would be the one.
Thumbs way up. This one’s my favorite too!
Eddie said in one interview that David had held him back in his music composing. Once Van-Hagar got together Eddie was free to expand the music and write much more complex compositions.
Eddie was first classically trained on piano as a young child. He was so bored with lessons he never bothered to learn how to read the music, but was so gifted he would just listen to what the instructor played and could mimic it perfectly by ear. He won several piano competitions as a child all the while never learning how to actually read the music.
Very uplifting song. They did songs with a positive message with Sammy Hagar. RIP Eddie Van Halen. You are deeply missed.
Alex Van Halen is a great drummer! Van Halen is one of the greatest rock bands ever!
Guys.. A suggestion for you.. this song needs to be watched WITH the music video (which won video of the year... I think.. it makes a lot more sense if you watch it that way). As always, love the channel!
This song was everywhere in the early 90s. From Nike commercials to informercials about world hunger, peace for war-torn countries, etc .... and even in anti-drug adds they played in school during assemblies.
One of my all time favorite "Van Hagar" songs.
Great that you did another Van Hagar song! ;) I think this makes three, after "Dreams" and "Poundcake". Some of the other bangers by the Hagar-led Van Halen include "Feels So Good", "Best of Both Worlds" and "Amsterdam".
The tours was called F.U.C.K ‘n Live. Pretty clever.
Dreams and Right Now are my favorite of the Hagar era.
@@mipacker Saw VH 8 times, once with a 5 star VIP package (front row, backstage pass, meet the band, my guitar autographed by Ed and band on Nov 1st 2007 Wash DC Verizon Center, Valerie Bertinelli on my left next to me to watch her son, got massive pics and it was incredible! Took my dad to this show). That was the Dave reunion I saw twice on that tour but the other 6 times I saw them play this song with Sammy starting in Oct 91 (An unknown Alice in Chains opened at the Capitol Center with a 45 min set) and VH played this song live every time I saw them. It was amazing. ..... And yes, Layne Staley blew me away. Shame he threw it all away.
Van Halen is legendary. Love their music.
Another GREAT thing about this VH song is the "rhythm section"...Alex Killin It on drums, and Michael Anthony's FIRE bassline throughout it! The organ and piano, thanks to Eddie as well, is Awesome. One of My favorites from the boys for sure! The ENTIRE piece is LIT 🔥🔥🔥🔥
This is one that the video really enhances the message. It was really the first "serious" song this glorious party band made. The keyboard music was basically one of Eddie's " throwaways" but Sammy heard him playing it in another room and went in and started singing the lyrics he'd already come up with but hadn't put to music. One of my absolute favorite Van Halen hits.
This song was huge when it came out. Eddie was not only a great guitarist but amazing with piano and keyboard too.
Eddie is playing keyboard and his brother Alex killing it on drums
I was playing this, on piano, last week. This is a glass of nostalgia...Clearly.
Because of this video, this happens to be one of my top 5 favorite Van haylen songs.
I saw them on this tour, in 1991. I was a lifelong fan and almost 18 at the time. Great show and a great memory! Cheers from northeast Ohio.
The only concert I went to that sounded EXACTLY like the Album , AMAZING RIP EDDIE.
This is a good song to listen to before your team takes the field! Right here and now! Let's GOOO!
“When It’s Love” should be your next Van Halen tune to do! 😉👍
One of my favorites from them, great music video
One of my favorite VH songs. Eddie was playing the keyboards on this song but don’t forget, Van Halen was not just Eddie, so Alex got the spot light on drums this time.
Best VH song! Pinch harmonics at solo beginning crushes it! Jay can’t be disappointed with that one. Great reaction! Thanks!
This was the graduation song for the class of 1992 for Sidney High School in Sidney Nebraska along with Van Halen 316. Joe Cabela was in the class of 1992 his parents owned Cabela's outdoor retail store.
This song always meant so much to me. Very inspirational!
This song was timeless the minute it came out. Sammy really hit a new level of lyrical excellence and the music created and crafted by Eddie is just perfection. It was a great message at a time of change. The video version is worth seeking out as it ads to the message. Eddie was trying to mature in his skill as a songwriter and not just be seen as a shredder. "Dreams", "Why Can't this be Love," and "Summer Nights," are a few more classics. You know songwriting is a curious thing and there's no one way that a song gets written. It can start as a jam session or be worked up from a demo; lyrics first, music first or all together. In the case of VH Eddie and Alex worked out all of the music first and Sammy (or Dave, to give Dave due credit) had to put words to that music, and I think that Dave and Sammy did a brilliant job.
My fav VH track.. inspiring. The official video is worth a glance, y'all.
Saw VH 8 times, once with a 5 star VIP package (front row, backstage pass, meet the band, my guitar autographed by Ed and band on Nov 1st 2007 Wash DC Verizon Center, Valerie Bertinelli on my left next to me to watch her son, got massive pics and it was incredible!

It was amazing. ..... And yes, Layne Staley blew me away. Shame he threw it all away.
J, you are used to Van Halen with David Lee Roth. Their sound changed significantly once Sammy Hagar came onboard to replace Roth. Despite EVH being the band leader, Sammy’s influence on their sound for the 2nd 10 years is unmistakable.
Despite experiencing both iterations, my favorite is Van Hagar (as we VH fans call it). Nearly everyone alive during that period favors one or the other more, but we almost universally love both!
Yes VH will always be David Lee Roth as the lead singer to me. Just such a dynamic personality. I liked Sammy before he joined VH and they were lucky to get him. Those are good songs too, just not the same for me that grew up in the DLR days. I almost wish they had changed the name a little, just to show they didn't ignore that there was a change. They probably hoped the fans would ignore, instead they just became a different but great band.
I favor the young, poor and hungry VH. Marshals and Kramers over Peavey and Musicman...and Fender, but I love it all. Dave reminds of my teens and Sammy reminds me of my 20s...I was 30 when Gary joined...bummer that I can not look forward more . I like Wolf, but he has not really lived up.I think he will eventually let out his inner Eddie, but he seems to try to suppress it
Appreciate the Roth years, but the Hagar years are equally great, if not greater...depending on your taste and the sound of the band at any given point.
You can't listen to this whole album and not want want to become a drummer. Alex is such a tasteful drummer and the drum sound on this album is killer.
This song demands the video as the accompaniment. The impact of "right now" is made clear.
one of the best Van Halen songs.
ONE of, for there are many.
Jay & Amber, you'll love their "You Really Got Me" !!! (Kinks cover)
fyi, "Right Now" has Sammy Hagar on lead vocals.
Here in Canada, the album 'For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge" was (briefly) banned in some jurisdictions because of the acronym produced by those words. After MUCH ridicule, those local authorities backed down :)
That was Eddie jamming on the piano. That's why it was so good. Happy Belated Birthday Eddie! We love & miss you! Rip
Killer guitar solo! 😎🔥🤘🎸
That song was awesome. I remember it was the soundtrack for that bad ass Crystal Clear Pepsi commercial when I was a kid!
...And Crystal Gravy, on SNL was fantastic.
@@calebclunie4001 Fantastic, hysterical and a hint of gross! 😆
I’ve been accompanying you on your musical journey for well over a year now, and I wanted to say Thank You. You both are taking the time to really LEARN about the bands & artists and it shows when you reference that learned knowledge. It’s what has kept me engaged and invested and coming back each day. Also the absolute joy you both show - even when the song may not be your cup of tea.
The Live version of this is something else.
Eddie on guitar, and piano! Great song!!
Takes me back to middle school ❤
(and Crystal Pepsi! 😂)
Should’ve done the video with all the random facts 🤷🏻♀️
For me, this album with Sammy Hagar was their masterpiece. And the tour to support this album was by far the best for the group. Live, this song was stellar.
Their masterpiece was their first album. David Lee Roth is so much better than Hagar. They aren't even the same band with Hagar. They should have changed their name. Their songs didn't even have the same sound. Eddie was still amazing, and Alex on the drums, but they weren't classic Van Halen.
Sorry, but abomination, Sam Halen FOREVER SUCKS!!! SMGDMFH!😔
🤘🌎❤
@@aimeegargus61 Why would they need to change their name when there are two brothers named Van Halen? It was their band, not Sammy's.
@@philsigman9088 I said they SHOULD have changed their name, because it wasn't the same band anymore. It doesn't have to be about their last name. I'm basing my opinion solely on the music.
@@aimeegargus61 It's all in the eye of the beholder and your eyes are very narrow slits. You are so closed-minded and you have the gall to tell somebody else that their opinion is wrong.
CHANGE THE BAND NAME? REALLY? What a great example of a Narcissist you make!
And an Elitist Snob to boot! Your picture should be used twice in the thesaurus.
Great to see younger people enjoying the music I grew up with . It was truly a fantastic time to listen to great music. We had pop, punk , rock , heavy metal and grunge 🥰 🎶.
The official video makes the song..iconic. Must watch
This whole album just smokes. Edward was an award-winning pianist when he was young. There's an acoustic version of this tune with just Ed and Sammy that's pretty cool. SO many great songs! I highly encourage you to react to their songs "Runaround," "5150" and "Top of the World" live! Van Halen live is just an absolute party! Also check out "Amsterdam," "Can't Stop Lovin' You" and "Judgement Day (live)." Guys...just keep hittin' up Van Halen!! Oh...one more thing, just for Jay: GO CHIEFS!!! 😎
both Eddie and Alex Van Halen the drummer and eddie's brother are both accomplished concert pianists as children and they grew to be one of the greatest rock bands that ever existed
Underrated Van Halen classic
(In the US, #55 in 1992)
The video for this song is amazing. Lots of facts!
Awesome song!
Van Halen is absolutely one of the best ever!!! And such longevity!!! ❤️❤️❤️
..my all time fave Debi
This is one song where you really need to see the actual video, as it won video of the year and was truly amazing and powerful.
I've been rocking to Van Halen for over 40 years. They opened for the Stones back in October 1981 at the Tangerine Bowl in Orlando, Florida. I was there and just 19 years old back then. The concert ticket was just $15.00 and it's the "cherry" in my overall concert ticket stub collection 41 years later.
This song has a very impactful video. Y'all would appreciate it! It was really ahead of its time in its message which is very much applicable today!
Eddie was classically trained on piano since he was young and was very good at it. David Lee Roth is by far my favorite Van Halen era but they had some good songs w/Sammy. Just a different vibe, more slicked out.
This is my fav Van Halen song. The guitar solo is 🔥
That IS Eddie on the piano, the guitar and the organ at the end. He wrote this song guys (all the songs) - and they're right, you should check out the video, it's really well done
You won't get Van Halen without "shredding the guitar" lol. This is about as calm as it gets
“This is about as calm as it gets”
I’d like to counter that with, “Love Walks in”.
Well, Big Bad Bill off Diver Down and Could this be Magic off WACF would probably be as tame as VH gets.
Amber & Jay, here are some other good Van Halen songs with Sammy Hagar on vocals you haven't reacted to yet: "Why Can't This Be Love?", "Summer Nights", "Best of Both Worlds", 5150", "When It's Love", "Finish What Ya Started", "Top of the World", and "Can't Stop Lovin' You".
This is one of the few songs where you need the Music Video. It really explains the song, and adds to your enjoyment of the Song!!
YOU NEED TO WATCH THE MUSIC VIDEO right now! Such a classic from the boys (and Jay, this is a 90's song too lol).
To really do this song full justice you need to watch the official video and read the pop-up comments the band put in the video. Great song. I grew up listening to VH with Dave on lead, but I came to really enjoy VH with Sammy up front much more.
The piano riff from Eddie is one that goes back to the early 80s, as it was used in a scene in the movie The Wild Life, the supposed sequel to Fast Times at Ridgemont High. Eddie and Alex were both multi instrumentals, and EVH draws you in with the piano, Alex hits you with the drums, Mikey with the bass line, and Sammy with the message of urgency: don't wait til tomorrow to fulfill your dreams, go and do it RIGHT NOW! One of my total favorites from the might VH!
I have been trying to find that movie for years.I think it was Chris Penn,and Lea Thompson, I had the cassette soundtrack. it was great, One of the songs I think was "Donut City"....good times Charles... I will no see if UA-cam has it... I think it has been 30 years since I have seen it
Sophomore year of High School! This song changed my perspective. I love this song so much, I was a band nerd and we jammed this song all the time
Van Hagar is my favorite thank you two for this one!
I was absolutely going to recommend this one for you guys, had no doubt you would love it. Very upbeat, grab your coffee and briefcase in the morning (and try to change the world) type song
I saw Van Hagar in concert while they supported this exact album and they were really good. Ya just gotta keep in mind Sammy has a totally different vibe than David.
Exactly 💯
different singer, different time, different band.....but still great.From the time I was 10, until the time I was 30, VH entertained me with 12 albums and 3 singers. i love every song on every album, I am still bummed out Eddie is gone, there will never be another like EVH, and all that performed with him, Dave , Sammy, Gary, Alex, Michael, and Wolf deserve some props as well, but EVH was the driving force
@@raymo6795 One of those singers was not like the others.
@@thorfinsky1427 …. Turns out, Gary was not a good fit. But it is not a bad album.. it is sort of like forgotten VH material… it is in my listening rotation and probably the least familiar album… give it a listen, It is not Dave. Or Sam, but it is Eddie , Al and Michael, and not a bad album 💿
Def one of my top 5 VH songs! And the solo, I always have to rewind and listen twice!
Absolute favorite VH. Wake up song or workout playlist #1 song. Motivation overload!!!! Rock it.
This song highlights to me the Van Halen with Sammy Hagar vice David Lee Roth. Roth left because he wanted VH to be a hard rock band that featured those hard driving screeching guitar riffs and Eddie wanted to take the band into a different area, wanting to incorporate more keyboards, etc., which is what you got with the new VH. The fact that both versions of Van Halen succeeded are a testament to the talent of each of members.
Why am I craving Crystal Pepsi right now?
One of my favorites! ❤️
Best of Both Worlds! Love that song! ❤
Alex Van Halen is one of the greatest drummers who ever lived...look up his drum solo
Agreed
* For more EDDIE VAN HALEN stellar solos, Don't forget His work for MICHAEL JACKSON on "Beat It" and "Thriller."
Eddie did NOT play on Thriller. And ONLY the solo on Beat It. The other guitars, and the bass was Steve Lukather
Vanhalen was the best concert i went to in San Diego. Eddie was flying through the air and shredding on his guitar
This is still in my opinion the best period of the group.
As good as this song is, and it's a great song, it just makes me thirsty for a Crystal Pepsi.
Glad you both liked it, but yeah, gotta have Eddie's shredding solo. Highly recommend you listen to I'll Wait next!
Thank You guys so much for posting. EVH would have been 68 this past Thursday and I really can’t believe he has been gone for 2 years. VH was my favorite band in High School in the 80’s. I would draw that Classic VH Logo on all my book covers ✝💕
This song has such a great message and is super under appreciated!
Personal favorite. Thank you
4:24 - Eddie switched to using keyboards in a LOT of their songs. As a keyboard player myself, I loved the transition. Literally every band wanted me to join because they all played guitar, base, and drums but nobody could play keyboards well whereas I had mastered it.
There are other keyboard heavy songs like "I'll Wait", "Jump", but they used mostly "horn" sounds. This one is straight up piano, but it rocks. Thanks for sharing. Great memories!
This is another one of those "roll down the car windows and turn up the radio" songs for me. Takes me back to cruising around Troy, Michigan in my Pontiac Grand Am. But, it also makes me think of how this song was used in the Crystal Pepsi commercials LOL. Any of you listeners remember that commercial?
One of the greatest intros in rock history. Right now.
Eddie & Alex Van Halen - Respect The Wind from the end credits of the movie Twister, some of Eddie's finest work
My all-time favorite song. Thank you!!!
Van Halen is my fav band. RIP Eddie
The Red Rocker, solo or after joining Van Halen, is just pure rock at its finest!
I love that her initial reaction was to the drums. The drums absolutely carry this song!
This is a VH master peace IMO! Glad you guys enjoyed it!
When I was younger I used to get so excited when this video came on the MTV. What a song and what a video. Hopefully you'll check it out when you get a chance.
This is one of those songs that seeing the video really helps. As always thank you two!
Love all of Van Halen Dave and Sammy!!!! Huge Huge song I miss the 90s!!!!
