Write-Up:
This might annoy some Van Halen fans but I bought the Guitar Hero Van Halen game and I gotta say if all of the best songs are there... this isn't as great of a band as I thought. Sure given the decade they became most well known I can understand why they rose to popularity but none of their songs stand out iconically to me (if that is a word...). It isn't all that obvious but I guess David Lee Roth confirmed on Howard Sterns show that this song was written about a race car which honestly makes it much less interesting to me. Eddie Van Halen supposedly used his Lamborghini to make the revving sound heard a few times behind the music. It seems that most Van Halen fans consider this song to be among their best performances which doesn't say much for my opinion. Hell for the longest time I didn't even know that they were screaming "Panama". Up until I bought the Guitar Hero Game when it was realeased I'd be caught singing "Animal" in it's place every time I heard it. >_>
