I see what you did there. Even if Stevie didn't. Btw a friend of mine is a chauffeur and when he had SW in his car he couldn't help but gush like a fanboy. He says Stevie responded with a big smile and a sincere "Thank you!"
Stevie clapping in perfect rhythm and grinning from ear to ear while Dave says, "Take a look at this!!!" and saying "whoooo"! Best part of the video. Classic. Bill needs to be inducted to the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame ASAP.
The world is a much richer place because you do these. I haven't been in a band in a long time, but the next time I am, these mashups are going to be in the mix of my influences. I'm now certain that soul should never have been divorced from rock and roll.
Billy, Billy, Billy.... I have no clue why you had your reservations for releasing this masterpiece, but, as Unchained is my favorite VH song of all time, I for one, am in your debt..
I also wanted to add, this mix is absolutely stellar....................RIP Eddie. I saw you over 27 times during the concert tours since 78. Thank you for all the BEST MEMORIES....................
Man i'm a Van-Halen fan for more than 35 years and i love some of these mash-ups.This one is awesome,Stevie Wonder's vocals fits like a glove in "unchained",thank you @ Bill McClintock for this super cool upload.
The fact the Stevie's hand claps are on beat with Van Halen's music is just incredible. Not sure if it's editing or just perfect. Whatever the case, it's awesome af.
Even if the original songs are slightly different tempo or keys the editing software can do pitch and tempo matching so not suprising at all it syncs up if the person editing knows what their doing.😉
After Michael Jackson had Eddie play on *Beat It* Stevie knew he had to collaborate with Van Halen. Ed told Stevie "I'd love to. But it ain't gonna sound like *Ebony and Ivory."* Stevie replied "I hope not."
Ive seen this Mashup so many times but usually listening on my headphones instead of watching the video. I just saw the end to the video for the first time and saw the RIP and Black & White image of Eddie Van Halen. Damn. It was unexpected and brought some old emotions back. I have to admit that Im writing this as tears are flowing. Please Excuse aby typos. Van Halen was my all time fave band and EVH was the musician who had the strongest impact on me. He was The Best. 🎸🤘🎸
I really need an full-on album of Bill McClintock's epic mashups! Even has Stevie dancing to the Van Halen groove! RIP Eddie. Bet he would have loved this.
Bill, you are literally the only guy I'm willing to support on Patreon. I just want to make sure you're rewarded and encouraged to keep making these mashups. It's almost dismissive to call them that-- you find new interpretations of great music, reinventing them with your very special sense of what fits together, and creating something entirely new. Your gift for that is a gift to us. Thank you, man.
Whenever I see you made a new video, I watch immediately and have a huge smile the whole song. I think you're making very important, wonderful art and music. Thank you.
God speed Edward Van Halen. And thank you Uncle Bill for the tribute to the hero for so many of us. Would have never been a musician if it wasn’t for EVH.
You got it backwards. Steve Wonder may use these guys as his backup band. Bill McClintock, your work is catching on because you elevate music by seamlessly merging different music forms. Delicious to listen to. Thank you very much.
This is so fucking good hahaha! The transitions, the way Eddie and Stevie line up during little runs, perfection! I've listened to it like 10 times already.
I love the mixing. The 106 people that dislike this, 100% cannot play music, or appreciate the combination of key and time signatures. Keep them coming.
Fantastic! I've never smiled so much at the genius of this. Stevie loved it so much he stuck a big asterisk on the wall to remind himself to listen to it later
Was laying down to bed, eyes tied, gotta set my alarm then saw Bill McClintock mashup, ok I'll stay awake for a bit... wrong! Now listening to it a 2nd time

Special thanks to my supporters on Patreon who pushed me to finish this one. Didn't turn out too bad.
THANKS BILL!!!!!!!!!!!
I agree, didn't turn out too bad at all!
❤️ 😍
They should start categorizing your work as Smoomash genre.
Not too bad?! ... Bill so humble ... its another homerun to me buddy! Clean outta Sight!
In this alternate universe, Stevie Wonder beat out Sammy Hagar for lead vocalist when David Lee Roth Left
That could have been so amazing. Eddie and Stevie riffing off of each other....
I love that idea. Stevie would have been better than Sammy.
I’ll take Stevie Wonder over Gary Cherone every time!!
Van Wonder Rocks!
Yes! Who would have guessed that Stevie was the correct answer?
@@pcdguy that's the Perfect Name!
David Lee Roth acting as Stevie Wonder's hype man, that deserves an A+.
Genius bro.
David Lee Roth probably would be a extremely good hype man
oh hell yeah! diamond baby
That suit WAS him. He got some leg that night for sure.
Eddie doing some weird “Where’s Waldo” matching sock combo, maybe no leg for him.
Double A + +!
Finally! We now know who Dave was taking to when he said, “that suit is you!”
Back then it was a glitch in the Matrix, but now we finally see the truth - he was talking to Stevie all along 😅
That was awesome!!
I bet Dave loves this.
One break...coming up! 😂
He's was talking about bill...... Its u lol
When people ask: who was better, Sammy or David? I'll say "Definitely Stevie"
lol good one !!!!!!!!
lol good one
I see what you did there. Even if Stevie didn't.
Btw a friend of mine is a chauffeur and when he had SW in his car he couldn't help but gush like a fanboy. He says Stevie responded with a big smile and a sincere "Thank you!"
Stevie smokes them both
Stevie for the win!
Van Wonder grooves heavily!
Dave: "That suit is yoooou!" Stevie: "yeah,yeah!".....as he's wearing a sharp suit. Too perfect. BM absolutely covers ALL the bases.... Incredible.
Absolute PERFECTION. 🎯
Tell us how youuuuu dOOOOOoooooo... hoo hoohoo~
@@Paiosgive me a break.
So realistic like it really happened...
Thats another one added to my "Soul Metal" playlist.
Love me some Soul Metal!
Stevie clapping in perfect rhythm and grinning from ear to ear while Dave says, "Take a look at this!!!" and saying "whoooo"! Best part of the video. Classic. Bill needs to be inducted to the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame ASAP.
Bill just gave EVH the ultimate dedication by not mixing in a different guitar solo on this one.
He passed the vibe check
Because you don’t need another solo when you have EVH on the track
EVH makes everything sound better, so we can forget about setting so many songs to Back in Black.
I cannot stop watching this, it's almost like Stevie Wonder and Van Halen actually collaborated! Sounds great together.
Did you ever check out any other of Bill McClintock's videos on his channel?
This channel is pretty much a supernatural miracle.
The world is a much richer place because you do these. I haven't been in a band in a long time, but the next time I am, these mashups are going to be in the mix of my influences. I'm now certain that soul should never have been divorced from rock and roll.
All the power of metal and rock without the angst.
If you slow down some of Van Halen's early stuff, his licks sounds exactly like those of the brass sections in big band music.
In this dumpster fire of a world, this brings a much needed smile!
I still don't understand how this doesn't have 10 Billion views.
iI know right I think it's the coolest thing i've heard and I post it to facebbok and it gets ignored LOL
2:05 - It was very considerate of Stevie to loan his sunglasses to Alex.
Stevie ain't blind anyway.
@@Daniel-Weaver LOL!!! Stop it!!!!
As many times as I've watched this, I never noticed that
Bill was flirting with the “genius” label until this, and now it’s official: He is a genius. His mash-ups are seamless and consistently awesome.
agreed
This is a masterpiece!
Very classy tribute to Eddie Van Halen.
Priceless!

Whoever mixed and edited this, is the best producer's of all time
His name is Bill, and we are his grateful following

Nice profile pic
@@epsilon6516 theif
"Hey take a look at this! Man that suit is you!" Camera on Stevie. I totally lost it! 🤣
That was a nice suit Stevie was wearing (for that time period)
Stevie probably got more "Leg" than I'd know what to do with!
Doesn't he have like 10 children?
@@transitfan954 Google sez 8.
Stevie got plenty of LEG, alright!
@@gardnerberry113 Thanks. I knew it was a lot. Actually, it's Eddie Murphy who has 10 kids
Mate you keep firing bombs one after the other! This is seriously genius! Once again, WOW!
This mix really knocked it out of the park......
And this is his “throwaway” music. For real.
he can't be fked with....they need to sign him.AMAZING!!
Finally Dave Lee Roth has a clear subject for his weird suit monologue in the breakdown.
He was actually talking to their producer, Ted Templeman, on the original record.
@@5roundsrapid263 Ted's engineer Don Landee, I believe.
Can't believe this isn't viral. I watch at least once a week.
Bill McClintock's music is a lot like Weird Al's:
Once you hear it you _can't_ listen to the original without thinking about the mashup.
Dude should mash up weird al
So very true
White and Nerdy X I Lost on Jeopardy. Nerd on Jeopardy or something.
well this is a mashup not a parody but i get what ya mean
Have you met Leo Moracchioli?
I love these mashups. The timing integration is what separates the good ones from the great ones. This is one of the greatest.
Sometimes I love McClintock mashups because they're funny. Then there's this. A gift to music lovers.
The fact the Stevie's hand claps are on beat with Van Halen's music is just incredible. Not sure if it's editing or just perfect. Whatever the case, it's awesome af.
The songs probably have the same bpm(beats per minute) or really close. That's why they mash up so well.
Even if the original songs are slightly different tempo or keys the editing software can do pitch and tempo matching so not suprising at all it syncs up if the person editing knows what their doing.😉
The Grammy's need to start a new category... Best Mash up Song
And the winner is.... Bill McClintock! Again
I didn't see the suit mash up moment coming. Great mash up and ...
*_Van Halen Forever!_*
I am a simple man. I see new McClintock, I smash the like button.
How original

from Legend to Legend!! what the hell is going on in youtube, making it Shrink like this?? xD
Not really
VH always had a killer groove, so this fits perfectly! RIP Eddie! 🎸
This makes me wanna shout, "I WANT MY MTV (McClintock Television)!!!"
RIP EVH
MTV has nothing on
McClintock TV nowadays.

Get your money for nothing and your chicks for free.

Just pure brilliance

And the rest is history

Ad infinitum! 🤘
Kickass
Unbelievable! Great job, Bill, this is sooo good!
The guy that made this video, Bill, is a master and has a really good ear.
The guy that made this comment, Andy, is a master and has really good guitar fingers.
That is absolutely perfect editing. Wow. Im 54 grew up with this. I'm an old 80's band (playing ) dude. WOW. Love it more than each song alone.

Thanks for the Eddie R.I.P. at the end; you've created yet another way for his legacy to live on.
Stevie's dancing SO synched up💥🍻
When people imagine late artists jamming together in heaven, THIS is what they're talking about.
I am not articulate enough to explain precisely how, but Bill McClintock is doing a great service to humanity.
This is greater than either song standing alone. This is magic. And if Stevie could see, he would say “cover that little thing Dave”
Dave says nice suit and Stevie has a nice suit on. Perfect 👌
I was raised on the jukebox. Raised on mashups. Thx Bill McClintock you are the MAN.
This is by FAR, the BEST mashup I’ve heard yet!!!
😎👍🏻🎸🎤🥁🎼🥇🏆 💥
Was blasting this at my work in the cafeteria the other day, everyone was dancin and a shakin!!!
Good stuff. Your mixing/production has been top notch
Thanks, William!
Both you guys do great work!
Not my two top musical obsessions in the same chain!

I literally heard Stevie singing in me head before Ed finished the progression. Well played McClintock. Well played...
SO good. It had me laughing and crying at the same time. And that still photo of Eddie at the end was the cherry on top. Amazing.
I just discovered these mashups! Absolutely FANTASTIC!
Thank you, Bill McClintock! 👏

Whenever I see you made a new video, I watch immediately and have a huge smile the whole song. I think you're making very important, wonderful art and music. Thank you.
Your art = pure joy. You are a wonderful human being, Bill McClintock. Thanks for existing.
God speed Edward Van Halen. And thank you Uncle Bill for the tribute to the hero for so many of us. Would have never been a musician if it wasn’t for EVH.
Dude ..... Your like.....a national treasure ! This is so badass ........or something. !
Glad to see this one made it out of the Patreon vault!
This is one of if not THE best mix ever.
Now that you've heard this.....you now realize something was missing and you needed this in your life:-)
You got it backwards. Steve Wonder may use these guys as his backup band. Bill McClintock, your work is catching on because you elevate music by seamlessly merging different music forms. Delicious to listen to. Thank you very much.
Damn Bill is back with another banger.
this is so beautiful it is just perfect. so loose and tight in the reverse meaning i mean.
"Hey, man. That suit is you!"
Serendipitous timing.
This had me dancing all night in the kitchen....love both of these songs .....
Love this! Stevie fits right into that solid pocket and swing that vintage VH had.
This is literally THE Best of the internet. Miss you 🎸
Love the memoriam shout out at the end for Eddie, that was classy!
You gotta get your own radio show on Sirius. Millions of people need to hear Alll these excellent mashups.
Not too bad?! ... Bill so humble ... its another homerun to me buddy! Love it!! Clean outta Sight!
Yeah. Another one that hit a home run in two different stadiums...
How the hell does anyone hear this in their head and then make it like it's for real.
Clean out of sight. Whoooo!
You have to be a dimension traveler or something what more evidence does someone need? 10/10
You got this right!
Even Stevie could see how awesome these mashups are ... GREAT JOB!
Yes!!!! Your uploads are like a healing balm for the soul.
This is so fucking good hahaha!
The transitions, the way Eddie and Stevie line up during little runs, perfection!
I've listened to it like 10 times already.
The master of soul/pop metal mashups! Hip To Be The Sandman is what got me to sub.
On a slightly similar note, make sure you listen to “Use your Mouth for War”- probably his magnum opus
For me it was RATT and Marvin Gaye - “I Heard it Round and Round the Grapevine”... 🥳
Raining Lobsters for me
Enter You (Bryan Adams and Metallica) and "Eminence Of Holy Wars and Creeping Death" (The Who, Metallica and Megadeth) 👍😃🔥😎
@@ryry998 +1 for "Grapevine" here!
I usually hate these mash-ups but this one is brilliant!! What a voice young Stevie had.
If I ever hit the lottery man, I'm going to make sure you put out an album. 🤘🤘🤘
I love the mixing. The 106 people that dislike this, 100% cannot play music, or appreciate the combination of key and time signatures. Keep them coming.
this made me smile for 3:38 straight
Got to the end of the song right as I read your comment... Realized I had been smiling the whole time too... What a mashup!
Holy smokes, Stevie Wonder can do 80's rock!
nicely done! and the tip o' the cap to Ed was a nice touch.
These mashups are orgasmic,, just when you thought you a song couldnt get any better!!!!
This one, James Hetfield & the News and Ain't too shy to beg are tied for my all time favorite mashup ever!
The James and News one was amazing ☺️
I like the one with Van Halen and the Jackson 5
"Don't Mess With Phil" by the Pantelettes is one my fav. anythin he did with Pantera is really.
Just add Slayer and Katrina & The Waves.
@@jorditor7936 if I was gonna choose one with Slayer, it’d had to be “War in South of Heaven”.
Brilliant!
EVH is digging this from the heavens!
RIP EVH!!!!!
Fantastic! I've never smiled so much at the genius of this. Stevie loved it so much he stuck a big asterisk on the wall to remind himself to listen to it later
This has got to be the best mashup yet! Nice job Bill!
Best work yet!! RIP Eddie 🤘🤘
This is perfect. Sir, you are an expert at your craft.
Was laying down to bed, eyes tied, gotta set my alarm then saw Bill McClintock mashup, ok I'll stay awake for a bit... wrong! Now listening to it a 2nd time
How is it Bill makes BOTH songs better? what a gift. God Bless you Eddie. RIP.
Another Soul Metal classic!
I truly hope Stevie hears this!
