I always come back to this video, the equivalent to lighting a candle for Eddie. Miss seeing you play, bud. I could only imagine how awesome it would’ve been to see you perform this one last time.
One of the only live recordings I've heard that was performed in the original key from the 5150 album. It wasn't long after the album release that they needed to drop it down because it was already too high for Sammy to hit the notes! Great song
I'm assuming this tempo is altered and not the actual one they performed it at, cause I don't get how Sammy could have survived to the end of this song with all the same high notes at this speed and still breath.
If you’re looking for some of the best live versions of Dreams-go check out their 1993 tour. Sammy sings it in the original key, same tempo, and eddie even adds some additional guitar.
@@adambass5704 Yeah, but Eddie never played this song live on the keys after the 5150 tour. They didn't play it live on either the MOR or OU812 tours in '88 and by FUCK in '91 all keyboard parts were soundtracked
Saw VH on this tour in New Haven..where they filmed "Live Without a Net and left this song out of the filming (They indeed played it). Like this video, it was a great live version...Edward just tears it up during the solo!!! Great video and thanks for sharing!
I remember paying a pay per view for this live without a net show on an old cable system in the 80's, only to be disapointed to not see dreams being played😡😠🤬
@@TheMrskydogYeah, I was disappointed when I first watched the DVD and realized Dreams wasn't on it, but their chemistry on stage for this tour is unmatched.
Love it how they are actually smiling and enjoying themselves whereas the bands these days only sing about death and look like they've just been informed that they've got cancer.
Love this so much. Amazing how egos can ruin the awesome comradery they all once had together. We can only Dream they'll make better amends soon, time's getting on.
Thanks man for the appriciation, I worked very hard on this video cause its my fav song, it took me like 15 hrs to make. And I dont work for them, I wish lol I'm just a die hard fan :)
It was a little faster than normal, but the energy, fun, and excitement in not only the song, but the video more than made up with it. AMAZING! I miss this VH :( Great editing job as well. This really showcased a lot of fun moments. Did you use to/ do you now work for them or the label?
@80sBoyRickyHagar they played good enough on the live without a net show but it was also a song not added to the DVD i thought they should have had every song on it. idk why they took songs out
Yeah this is the only good live version of dreams from the whole 86 tour, this song is very hard to sing live and Sammy nailed it to perfection as always. I'd like to see dave hit these notes ha ha!
Actually, no. If you can find the Montreal '86 show, it's on there as well. Also, at that same show, Sammy hopped on drums and Alex took the mic during Good Enough.
Good sound for a tape recorder. Nice work on the video. I think this recording is later on though. Mike never did sing solo "higher and higher" till later on in 95 and maybe some in 93.
@CairnTerrier69 Wow I wonder why they never put it in the video?? Thank you, I spent so many hrs editing this video, its very rare to have a recording of dreams from the 86 tour, and I found it from the only show that sammy sang it to perfection!
Eddie sempre aparecia mais que os outros, Van Halen trocou de vocalista algumas vezes, mas o Eddie sempre esteve lá, sem ele o Van Halen jamais teria chegado ao topo.
of course dave cant hit those notes, he sings in a different range. Then again, sammy can't sing like steve perry or rob halford...it doesnt mean he sucks. Anyway, great song but i dont believe they have ever done a great version live...i think the record version is so perfect, its hard to live up to
@@80sBoyRickyHagar Man, the audio is not bad, it sounds good, you made this video with a lot of love, someone who doesn't know much about Van Halen could easily tell you that it is an official video of the band, personally it is one of my favorite videos, I usually come to see it from time to time and I read some comments, after so many years I think it's time to thank you, this video is pure love for your favorite band, thank you very much!!!

R.I.P to the Great Eddie Van Halen.
look at them that's when they still were smiling at each other the good old days!

hipermegaultrasuper beautiful song
I love that Mike was singing in the chorus even in this early live version. He has such a great voice, he should have been a lead singer.
Saw them in Las Cruces,NM on October 6,1986 I was a freshman in high school those were good times, still have my shirts and ticket stub.
Why was this not on Live Without a Net??? If I could time travel I would go back to see the 1986 tour!
and good enough、too, maybe buisiness probleme
Dreams put a lot of strain on Sammy’s voice so they probably just didn’t play it.
Yeah, LWAN is good...but I would much rather travel back in time to see the 1984 tour.
@@pancakes7294 the played it but didn’t film it for some reason. Same with you really got me and good enough
@@VanHalen_5150 Technical problems prevented those songs from being included.
this seemed like a super fun tour
Play this at .75× speed and it becomes a chilled medium slow power ballad.
Great song that will always stay the same
The magic era of Van Halen, was with Sammy Hagar, after that they get completely lost.
Good Times....GREAT Memories....AWESOME "BAND".....miss these guys being together....thanks for posting!

@@imjustsomeguy72 No. I was at both Philly shows in '86 and they really played it at that tempo.
@@adambass5704 Yeah, but Eddie never played this song live on the keys after the 5150 tour. They didn't play it live on either the MOR or OU812 tours in '88 and by FUCK in '91 all keyboard parts were soundtracked

I KNEW IT!!! God i want to see the full uncut version of LWAN if it even exists
Great job on this! I always wondered why it was left off LWAN. Can't tell you how many times I watched that VHS- awesome band and tour.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love it how they are actually smiling and enjoying themselves whereas the bands these days only sing about death and look like they've just been informed that they've got cancer.
OH MY FUCKING GOD. DUDE I CAN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH SERIOUSLY THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

Great editing job as well. This really showcased a lot of fun moments. Did you use to/ do you now work for them or the label?
I agree, the sped up is just the way it ended up on the recording. but this is the best Sammy ever sang this song. its a hard song to sing live..
@80sBoyRickyHagar they played good enough on the live without a net show but it was also a song not added to the DVD i thought they should have had every song on it. idk why they took songs out
The best of times !
The recording I got was from an audience recording, guess they used an old cassette recorder which could explain why its sped up a bit
Yeah this is the only good live version of dreams from the whole 86 tour, this song is very hard to sing live and Sammy nailed it to perfection as always. I'd like to see dave hit these notes ha ha!
Pretty sure that's Mike hitting those "Higher and higher" notes.
Sammy hits the first higher and Mike the second one
Actually, no. If you can find the Montreal '86 show, it's on there as well. Also, at that same show, Sammy hopped on drums and Alex took the mic during Good Enough.
Gotta love Eddie playing the full keyboard up-pitch @1:22 right before the first chorus.
VAN HALEN É O PROPRIO SONHO GRANDE VIDEO.......
GREAT video!!! I really wish we could've seen this on the LWAN video.
Anything for a fellow =VH= fan!! I have a lot of rare stuff like this =]
@80sBoyRickyHagar Thanks for posting that man.
Yeah me too!! I was kinda disappointing it wasn't on there, cause its my favorite song
Setting this version to .95 speed nearly matches the original tempo.
@ken952gtr
Really awesome, I got that show and every show ever recorded from the 86 tour!!
You're welcome. Anything for a fellow Van Halen fan! (:
Good sound for a tape recorder. Nice work on the video. I think this recording is later on though. Mike never did sing solo "higher and higher" till later on in 95 and maybe some in 93.
I for one would love to see the full concert.
@@jakarate11 I've been searching for years for the video, I'm sure somebody has an archive somewhere.

nice!! mike on keys during lead break? i was at 86 st paul mn. show but dont remember. this is before eddie used a sequencer live.
This is in San Diego not Philadelphia- but thanks 4 the video BEST VAN HALEN SONG EVA!!!! Van Hagar FAN VH🎸
It's Philadelphia, I have the whole show on CD from both nights.
@@80sboyrickyglassie upload them please!
Eddie sempre aparecia mais que os outros, Van Halen trocou de vocalista algumas vezes, mas o Eddie sempre esteve lá, sem ele o Van Halen jamais teria chegado ao topo.
Yeah I posted this whole concert from philly on my channel, I completely remasted it in my studio. Enjoy! :)
Well, you can tell Alex isnt playing to a click or any backing tracks. THAT TEMPO IS CRAZY FAST!!!!!
When they stopped performing Jump until the for unlawful carnal knowledge tour
Jump was typically the first encore on the 1986 shows.
@@thefonzkiss I think I knew that
Yeah I know, I got the bootleg recording from a guy who was in the audience at the show, I think he used a old cassette tape recorder.
Song is too fast
IS VERY RARE VERSION, With more Tecaldo, i like more the original version with More Guitar
Who needs DLR on stage
Van halen??
he is so much of a better singr than roth, and plays great guitar also....
hager is better then roth in my opinion and i never heard this song fast
of course dave cant hit those notes, he sings in a different range. Then again, sammy can't sing like steve perry or rob halford...it doesnt mean he sucks. Anyway, great song but i dont believe they have ever done a great version live...i think the record version is so perfect, its hard to live up to
Audio is shat
Yeah it was the only decent recording I could find online
@@80sBoyRickyHagar
Man, the audio is not bad, it sounds good, you made this video with a lot of love, someone who doesn't know much about Van Halen could easily tell you that it is an official video of the band, personally it is one of my favorite videos, I usually come to see it from time to time and I read some comments, after so many years I think it's time to thank you, this video is pure love for your favorite band, thank you very much!!! (sorry for any spelling errors, I don't speak English)
Alex should've used a click machine definitely!!
Its so fast and ruining the song
Its sped up bc this is a mirror old audio tape
This version is way too fast...too much alcohol for AVH hence the timing!
It's the coke
but this is the only tour that Eddie actually played the synth live. On all of the other tours, it was either pre recorded or played by someone else.
Austin allen Ed played synth on the OU812 tour as well
@@killerchimp12 and 1984
They were coked out
