Anybody who listens to Van Halen 1, 2, Women & Children First and Fair Warning and still claims the Hagar era was better shouldn't be allowed to speak in public. 😁
You know!!!!!!!
😂
AMEN 🙏🏼
Agreed
Only one Van halen , and it aint with hagar
A complete package.... funky bassline, great drums, and eddie's riff kills. DLR's vocals sell the vibe.
So true about Dave's voice in this song. He was awesome in the first albums - gotta give him his dues for sure!
Dave's voice is ok. But without Michael Anthony's backing vocals it just ain't Van Halen....
AMEN!!! This is a great testament as to WHY they have been my NUMBER #1 ALL TIME FAVORITE rock band since 1979!
@jamespearson7655 I heard that Michael Anthony was actually singing lead for another band when Van Halen recruited him. Anyhow a general comment on this song, i never realized back in the day just how r&b/funky/danceable this track was. Part of the fun of watching reaction videos is seeing/hearing known music in a new light.
Fair warning my favorite vh album
Yeah, first album I heard when my uncle gifted me with it back in the day. 👍👍🤘🤘
Agree. And this might be my favorite song off it.
Great choice...Mine too!
My 2nd favorite,
Well, that's only because it's their best🤩
One of the greatest rock songs ever!
Evh had effects basically created after VH1
Had to turn this one way up, Mean Streets is easily one of my favorite Van Halen songs, love the album. I remember getting it on vinyl when it came out. Love David Lee Roth’s vocals🤘🏼
You have impeccable taste!
That song floors me ever since it came out . Wow ! It sounds as if I heard it for the first time .
DLR was the MAN
This is an R&B song with rap disguised as a hard rock song. Listen to that groove by the bass and drums, and the way DLR spits lines and tell me it's not, lol!
Ohio Players meets a chain saw. Best ever
The whole album is fire. Still have the original vinyl, I play it all the time. Eddie's rymth and timing on this song is amazing. RIP Eddie your sorely missed buddy.
And the sound is amazing..Templeman was a great producer..mix is perfect on all VH first lps
Love when Michael & AVH come in SLAPPING FUNK
This song doesn't only showcase Eddie's lead guitar skills, but he was also an awesome rhythm guitarist.
Yeah..This song is about the INTRO~
the entire song is a master class in rock guitar. it showcases every single element of King Edward's skills and musicality
@@RobertMJohnson and creativity~
Notice the time change and change in the riff during the lead. It is hard to hear but it`s crazy and Ed is about impossible to copy.
Fair Warning is considered Van Halen's dark album. So many bangers, like Push Comes to Shove, Dirty Movies and Sinner's Swing. Eddie was at his most creative, and pretty aggressive. Mikey and Alex tears it up in the background, and Dave shines and shows his grittiness. Such a gem of an album.
This was the album that Eddie wanted to make....more guitar oriented.
Fair Warning has been my favorite Van Halen album forever. I'd rank the first six albums in descending order: Fair Warning, Van Halen, 1984, Women & Children First, VH II, Diver Down.
I listened to those albums (well cassettes) over and over and over again - thanks to Columbia House - 1984 was the first i bought on releases day. at Dog Ear Records
I agree! This has always been my favorite Van Halen album. Love the heavier and darker sound!
I give Women and Children First more cred, but yeah they all rock. forget about anything after Diamond Dave.
No arguments
This album is unique. Not everyones favorite, but it has something none of their other albums have. It is golden!
The beauty of Van Halen is you always feel a little better after their (DLR Version 1) songs end, and you can re-listen to their songs and just hone in on just the guitar, bass, drums or vocals. Cheers!
The head-bobbin tells you that you can never deny that Van Halen had 'swing' like no others. Mean Street is exactly what is was back in the day. This was early 80's before millennials made the world soft.
I think, VH's best song. So many elements...
Killer intro
Great groove
All instruments rock
Pre solo
Cool solo
Interlude
Awesome outro
You guys should have used my lyric video. I have MANY VH videos.
The cover art is a section of a known painting.
We should have went for the lyric video. People enjoy the songs more when they can follow along.
Will check out those Lyric videos. You forgot to give Dave major props for his part. He helps bring it to the front
I do give credit to this song. It's a great song, but Sinner's Swing is a complete banger.
@@JohnWilliams-zu8wg Don't forget Atomic Punk .
That opening would make an epic walkout song for a relief pitcher or walk up for a batter.
Good call 👍
Ed's sizzling Guitar tone is just incredible - there will never be another band like the Mighty VAN HALEN!! Everyone of their songs is a Banger!!! One of many GREAT SONGS. That intro is just Majestic!!!
You guy's nailed it. Edward Van Halen plays with this funk and soul most rock players don't.
From a Van Haleniac, this is one of my favorite rock tunes of all time. King Edward's slapping technique at the beginning of the tune was yet another technique that so many young guitar players emulate. Van Halen's live shows were epic! I saw them at the US Festival in 1983 with 300K plus maniacal fans. Yep, it doesn't getter more bad-ass than the Mighty Van Halen...their self titled album went diamond and is considered one of the foremost hard rock albums of all times.
Been a huge VH fan all my life. Had this album on vinyl, long before CD’s and this is IMO their best album. If you like to hear them rock out, this is the album.
A perfect mix of rock and funk. Arguably their best song, on arguably their best record, which has this punchy swing all the way through it. Dark horse suggestion from this record: "Push Comes to Shove".
Has anyone figured out how Eddie plays the first 25 seconds of this song? This song is just straight up bad-ass rock. love it!
Dude, we haven't even figured out how Hendrix did some of his stuff yet.
Unchained, my favorite on this album
Well that put a smile on my face! You two are awesome!
My favorite Van Halen song ...ever! I actually use this song as my ringtone. It reminds me of my hometown in East Point, GA, during the 1980's.
Hahahahaha…… east point is still mean street. Everyone I knew from over there was a real one. Still don’t drive over there.
Girl , Eddie Van Halen was my teen crush , they were so good in concert ! I love watching you both getting into it , puts me in a better mood !
Eddie had style.
An excellent choice. They always delivered top notch music! 🤟🤟👍👍. Love the smiles on your faces.
Great job on the comments - you let the song play a lot. Some just don't shut up! Great job - loved your words. Oh my - you have no idea what guitarists thought when they first heard Eddie's playing. He didn't raise the bar like others, he put the electric guitar in a different dimension and galaxy!!! There will never be another one like him - ever!
Eddie Van Halen is highly regarded for his lead guitar, but this song really showcases his talents at filling up songs with his rhythm guitar work too. The GOAT.
One of the best Rock lineups ever!! They were killing it back in the late 70’s early 80’s
VH's Rockiest Album and mean streets my favorite song on it. Probaby the best fade out ending in rock history. You have to listen to it on a higher end stereo to truly appreciate the mastery of it.
Pretty much every song is 🔥 on Fair Warning. One of their top 3 albums! Deep cuts on this slbum is VH at their best.
People are always amazed, rightfully, at EVH's lead guitar chops, and many don't realize he was also an impeccable rhythm guitarist. One guitarist setting down this sick groove in this tune! One of my favs.
You two are great at what you do top notch all the way. I don't know if you've done Unchained from the same album as this gem. Unchained is my favorite guitar intro I've ever heard. It just gets you so pumped up. Keep up the great work 👍👍
The flanger sweeping up and down with the tempo in that intro is just fucking perfect. Just read that it was totally by accident and the flanger setting he had happened to fit the tempo of the song
Unchained is my favorite song on the Album. Every member shines on that song!
@@andjustjizzforall I read that not to long ago either @Rhett Kraljevic 👍
@@debratroeak77 I can't believe that I failed to mention this beginning guitar lick of a song bcuz in my ears it's right up there with Unchained & that would be Poundcake. I've killed about a couple billion brain cells too many in my younger years 🤪🤪🤣😭
So many beautiful transitions and step downs. Probably my fave VH song.
One of their hardest hitting songs
Eddie Van Halen was very creative that took the guitar sound and playing to a whole new level that was and still is electrifying energy to say the least. RIP and every music loving and musician will miss you regardless of your ups and downs in your life.
OMG!!!! You all are awesome! Love your feedback on probably my favorite song of all time. This song has components of funk, metal and pop. It kills! Like Mean Streets! It's always here and now, my friend! It's all over but the SHOUTING! New Fan of You!
It can be a work my ass off late night Monday and this songs gets me pumped every time. What a classic vibe. Nobody does these rockin melodies anymore.
My fav VH song and my 2nd fav album! Proud to have lived in the time when rock kicked your ass!!!!
This was mostly a darker than usual album . I'm guessing one reason is because Angus Young called Van Halen a pop band . Im also guessing Edward was responding to that . He was constantly fighting with Teddy Templeman , by keeping cover tunes out of the album . The band's PR was they were the world's best bar band as one explanation of why there were cover tunes in all the prior albums . Teddy wanted more cover tunes for FAIR WARNING and Ed refused . The only fun song was So This Is Love , and I think that song was written for Edward's future wife-to-be Valerie Bertinelli . They started dating around or shortly prior to the making of this album .
This album is when they " discovered the studio". That's why the songs were so different live
Welcome to Vanhalen Nation. Your little late but we left room for u. These boys do it right. This song never gets old. Don't stop there.
Should have seen them live oooooooooohhhh man!!! They were AWESOME!!
Another VH classic. They have sooooo many great tunes. RIP Edward, you're the king.
This is one of Van Halen's GOATs. Why? The best rock songs have both a soulful and progressive rush to them at the same time.
From his wicked riffs to his odd flattened thirds, Eddie and Alex Van Halen took dads jazz background and mom’s classical piano lessons and we got the outcome of that marriage, the Van Halen brothers!
What more can anyone say about Van Halen, just an unbelievable band. They've been rockin me since 1983.
I'm very honored to have an autograph Frankenstein guitar 1997 I was talking to a friend of mine who agreed with me..man at the beginning of it all we were there. The birth of heavy metal. Punk rock the British invasion. I'm happy to say we were in high school during the explosion of music. It was an amazing time to be alive and young 🎉the 80s people today play ower music and love it it was ahead of its time. Just like van Halen 🎉
By far the best sounding VH album. Also my favorite
I love your videos so much-you make me enjoy my music al over again through new ears-LOVE your channel-you guys are so much fun!
Possibly my favorite VH song on my favorite VH album.. They were in top form here..
Their best album - highly underrated
AH Yeah, the Mighty Van Halen... this was when they were the Kings of Rock n Roll! RIP Eddie Van Halen, Greatest gutarist of all time!
Love how you guys let it play all the way thru.....and don't feel the need to stop it every 45 seconds. Just grooved on the whole thing.....'THEN'......we can talk a bit. Very Nice!
Love watching you two get down to this song!!
One of their best songs of the DLR era. Fun channel guys, keep them coming!
And today is Eddie's birthday. What a gift he was to us!
Yall are mean funky and smooth. Many reactors out here > but you 2 are absolutely Unique. Ive watched them all. Started playing bass in the 80s, and this album was one of many that steered me into it. Thanks for bringing this. So many memories
Thank you so much!
There's a live performance of this that you'll really like. I think it's in Italy. Diamond Dave doing the splits in it! 🤘🎤🎵🎸🎶
Yes! I was just listening to this in the car this morning and thinking “TNT would love this one!” If you love Van Halen, I highly recommend checking out their 1976 Zero Demos. They were produced by Gene Simmons of KISS and they are raw, but kick-ass embryonic versions of Van Halen songs.
Here is the link to the demos:
ua-cam.com/video/jXZnB2xJ26s/v-deo.html
Definitely one of VH's best songs. Top 3 for sure. Romeo Delight, I'm On Fire, and Mean Street are the best.
I saw Van Halen in 1981...blew me away. Best concert I ever attended ❤...Dave the Showman
My favorite VH album as well. Number 2 for me is Women and Children First.. You need to do Romeo Delight
Eddie at his best. My favorite Van Halen song.
yep
VH put out nothin but BANGERS ! GOATs ❤
Eddie was the best guitar player in history. He'll never be surpassed. You guys need to Eddies 316 solo video. Ot will blow you away just how awesome he was. I remember when VH first came on the scene, they were soooo cool.
Top 10 but other like akira takasaki could give him a run for his money playing and writing too. Even Vai ripped off both of them for his techniques
Van Halen is a special and very talented band. They're one of the very elite rock bands ever.
Legendary. RIP and long live KING Edward!
Fabulous, classic VH with DLR at the mic - great early Van Halen rock - funk! Just came across your channel, you guys are so cute! Oh, love all the KISS stuff in the background.
Album artwork was created by William Kurelek's "The Maze."
It's so weird to see people listening to VH songs for the first time. This is the music I grew up with. It's just second nature to me. It's great to see though.
That "lightning strike" has been getting me for years.
This may be my favorite VH album. The songs and guitar are so gritty on the Fair Warning album.
Diamond Dave era Van Halen first brought me here and from there I've been a huge fan. I'm shadow-banned from UA-cam so ya'll never see my comments because UA-cam puts them at the very bottom where you can't see them. But like I always say, ya'll are so cute together. My favorite reaction channel. God bless you guys!
Always loved to listen to this one. Has a attitude groove
My 2nd favourite VH song after Aint Talkin Bout Love. Great reaction!
The full bug. You must listen to it together. It's a must
A life long VH fan. Fair Warning is my favorite album!
Hey guys what's up! Everything Eddie Van Halen plays has a swing to it. Although it is hard rock it has a little funky in it. Love Van Halen since the minute I heard them. Seventh grade, some kid had a cassette of their first album played it for me. I was just blown away. I could not even believe what I was hearing. Van Halen change the music. You guys rock! God bless you! Peace!
Great commentary for sure you guys!
Their Masterpiece song in my opinion.I was lucky enough to have seen them in Birmingham Alabama in 1983.They rocked the place.
Van Halen The most ultimate Rock Band of all time R.I.P EVH
My first Van Halen show was supporting this album. In my opinion slightly down and dirtier than Women & Children First. All I know is that they were so freaking awesome live. R.I.P. EVH one of the absolute GOATS.
LOVE Mean Street, Van Halen forever.
This is in my top ten DLR Van Halen songs… all equally awesome.
Mean Streets
Drop Dead Legs
Hot For Teacher
I’m The One
Little Guitars
Ain’t Talkin Bout Love
Atomic Punk
Unchained
Panama
Runnin With The Devil
Jamie’s Crying
Little Dreamer
There's ~something~ about that album, all the way down to the cover art, that just sits different than everything else back then.
The best Van Halen album, check out Sinner's Swing.
One of my favorite songs and album covers. Raised in the mean streets of Miami in the "Miami Vice Era". Drugs, shootings and violence was everywhere but specially in the night clubs. The coke lines were longer than the base lines in baseball field!
“That was a little different..” yes sir it was, Eddie at his finest, rawest and meanest…
Fair Warning in most of our opinions is the best VH album
Listen to I'm The One on their first album. They really show their roots and what they were capable of on this song.
My favorite album of all Van Halen collection
When you're 17 and Fair Warning album hits the record stores....
To me Fair Warning is by far their best album......it is definitely their heaviest album. Van Halen is your classic Southern California, party time band, but this album was different.
There is a certain satisfaction when I see both of you gettin that stank face to the music that pushed me into the world of Rock.
Thanks for digging into what I think is the best music of all time. ROCK..
Check out some Lynch Mob (She's evil but she's mine is a good start) and Bullet Boys (Smooth up in ya).. You will NOT be let down
Ahhh Van Halen - words just cant describe - all ya can do is get up and Mmmoooovvve
My favorite band. So much attitude. Phenomenal
Of course they dig it. It's real talent with no auto tune or mumble rap
This is my 2nd favorite album from VH... Long Live King Eddie with in Our Heart's...
This album is van halens master class
It doesn't get any better ❤
