This is perhaps the single most underrated, under played and least appreciated song that was swept under the carpet by mainstream radio simply because it wasn't Van Halen. It's ironic in it's timeliness with the passing of Eddie, RIP.

I remember when this album came out, and I think "Damn Good" is my favorite song David's ever done. When he goes, it will be the end of an era, and I'm blessed to have been a witness to it. Roth is one of THE GREATEST front men in rock. Diamond Dave, thank you for putting a smile on my face and a strut in my step all these years. They were damn good times, indeed!!!!

Jan 1989 was going through my brothers music collection just after he passed away and was thinking about this album - particularly this song , couldn't find it among the hundreds of rock and metal cds, albums etc.. about a month or two later I set up his entertainment system in my room , plugged it in , opened the cd drive and there it was, obviously the last album he listened to, I balled like a baby.. he was my best friend and would jam to this song on his guitar at his place before we went out to clubs ( with my fake id) or wherever.. Miss you my brother..

Ive never been as happy in my life as I was in those days. I saw Steve Vai in Seattle several years later had front row tickets. I was wearing my Skyscraper t shirt and Steve played a little excerpt of "Good Times." while in the middle of another song. I feel like he saw my shirt and did that just for me. Or so I like to think.

Hendrix ledzepplen 2 i heard commin out of next doors window i was hooked this song DAVID LEE ROTH DID. Really takes me thinking how it started my friends i LOVED them so much i moved on my own right after A.C. D.C. came out my family had left when i was 12 both sis got married brother Johnny went on a smaller east coast tour opened up for Janice Joplin and big brother.wow wish i had all them flyers great art so..mom left i had learned to play 🔊 BASS first and got to make LITTLE money at 14 15 at 18 my guitar playing boomed so i moved after our first tour nobody was left in Sacramento TESLA just cut there first l.p. IT was HOT so this song brings SOSO MANY good times and 😥 sad sad times having to say goodbye. It is a powerful song it makes me think of all the great musicians we lost and the one's that inspired me to all may peace n love stay with you all and STAY WELL S.G.

Listening and playing this song on the guitar being in lockdown in Spain. Thinking about the eighties and nineties. Man, made me cry.

Almost forgot about this song until I stumbled upon it again on the tube. One of the best solo songs Dave ever made - the lyrics and the visuals of the mighty Van Halen in full swing gave me goose bumps as I took a stroll down memory lane remembering people, places and some of the things we got up to. Damn straight Dave - good times indeed !

Always loved this song. I still followed DLR. after he left. I am a VH freak. I have a room in my house that is dedicated to Van Halen. Sitting in the middle my drum set. I cried the day Eddie died. They were the best band ever in my book. I partied my ass off listening to them. I was 10 yrs old when the first album came out. I got to see them. I thought I died and went to heaven. Those were damn good times.

Who's listening to this great song in 2020 ? This is such a truly great overlooked tune and Dave how can you go wrong with that really does make a person think of past good times for sure.

They are the soundtrack to my life in so many instances and I will always cherish them. As I type this I can only look back with fondness... The 80's??? Well, as David Lee Roth said, "The 80's just smiled". Smiled it did and in a huge part, by the awesome power, look, and feel of a band that cut their teeth in the 70's and owned it until their unfortunate end in 1985.

A song about doing what you didn't do and did what you shouldn't have done. But also about the good times you had. Those times are gone but the memories remain.

God, how I Miss young Van Halen !

Reminds me of the 80s awsome....with all my cuzins ...the faithful only...🇺🇸🇺🇸😎😎

Those of you who lived during this time period I'm sure are incredibly bittersweet, as this is a song of the times and more. For me, it makes me personally very sad as I grew up in the nineties. We were sold pop (Hansen and Spice Girls) and angst (Nirvana and Co.). For me I'm much more sad because I barely caught the tail end of this epic era. This time period of music is an escape, a show, and ultimately a party, which is the way it should remain. Most people these days, (my generation, suckillennials) have few clues on how to shred, rock, have fun, and enjoy a show. What happens in the 80's, stays in the 80s.....FUCK YOU VEGAS!

Some songs are written on the wind and someone tracks it out. What an amazingly well crafted arrangement and execution. It stands the test of time.

I consider myself to be a VH fan... since I first heard them at the age of 13, when I first heard Diver Down... I was hooked... I'm embarrassed to say I've never heard this song... and now I have goose bumps....

Great to see they fought like brothers but created some of the greatest hard rock of all time….ladies and gentlemen I give you the mighty Van Halen..

Great video, grew up with these guys, every summer catch the VH show { mandatory } saw em when they were nobody 77 or 78 all the way to 84 which turned out to be the last REAL VH tour. saw Dave solo a few times but never saw VH again. Dave WAS Van Halen in those days. although he seems to have lost some marbles these days { lol } he's still DLR, one of a kind..

I didn't really take the time to appreciate this tune when it was released, of course back then I was a cocky and immortal (or so I thought) 20 year old, for how could a song like this affect me at that age? If DLR wrote the lyrics to this song (and it sure seems like he did) he is absolutely correct, time moves SO quickly as you age, somewhere along the way, you begin to realize that you're not immortal, it's at that point a song like this has true meaning.
