Sammy Hagar & The Circle- "Don't Tell Me (What Love Can Do)" Van Halen (Circle @Home Sessions No. 9)

Музыка

When I heard that Kurt Cobain had taken his own life, the first thing I thought of was I wish I were there and could have tried to save him. The original title for these lyrics were “I want to show you what love can do," but because it was such a dark horrible thing I just couldn’t shine a light on it. So I changed the final line to “Don’t tell me what love can do."
P.S. It was also the time of the breaking up of Van Halen, our last album and tour so it added a lot of emotion, negativity and pain in the original vocal performance which surfaced the second I started singing this song for the first time since 1995.
It's episode 9 of the Circle @Home Sessions.

I mean, he, Draiman(Disturbed) & Hetfield(Metallica), make mass majority of them newbie's sound like they still jerkin off in the lil boy's room, compared to their vocal's! Hell, even the God of the vocal's, Steve Perry(Solo & Journey), is makin them newbies seem like they ain't got a damn clue, compared to these legend's, of the rocker's!

    Roth was an exceptional front man, among the very best ever. Only age could stop him, and there is no dishonor in that. Hagar was never that type of showman but somehow defies the passage of time and remains an exceptionally powerful vocalist at 72 years old. I admire and respect that.

  • @Xevonarin

    Agreed. Roth and Sammy are both incredible, but in very different ways. Sammy is a vocal powerhouse, easily one of the most capable and consistent vocalists in history and he's held onto his voice like few others ever could. Roth on the otherhand was a master frontman and an incredibly clever songwriter. While I never disliked his voice, he just doesn't have the talent for singing that Sammy had, but he penned some of the most creative and entertaining songs in history and brought them to life with his eccentric and ridiculous sense of humour and bravado. They're both amazing, but for different reasons.

    This band is an absolute powerhouse! They can play any song, and add weight and dimension to songs you may not have ever cared about before. Vic is a BEAST! Hey Mike, did Sammy show you how to play bass on that one? LMAO!! Mike is more respected and loved than he'll ever know. I see a lot of similarities between Jason and Wolfgang. They took their heritage and built on it, rather than being content simply being the offspring of two of the most important figures in music history. It's been great to see the friendly interaction between Sammy and Wolfgang, because it shows that Wolf won't get caught up in whatever has kept his dad and Sammy apart and he even professed his love for Balance! I feel like something good might actually come out of this dumpster fire of a year, and these home sessions sure do a great job to lift our spirits! Keep it up boys!

    Maybe once people start touring again, Wolf will join the Circle for a song or two somewhere. Even for "Rock and Roll" or "You Really Got Me" - it would be fun to put a guitar in his hands and let him join in the vocals. They can cancel the pyro for that night, because Ed and Al will provide it when their heads explode.
