I don't want to talk about negative, dark things. The only thing I've got against stuff like Marilyn Manson is, they make unbelievable videos and unbelievable images.

I've had my fill of One Way To Rock or I Can't Drive 55. Those are guy songs to me, and I'm cool with that. But when you write a great love song and you start seeing that 50 percent of your audience is beautiful women, that's much more rewarding, than having a bunch of guys out there.

I've always been into writing love songs.

Love Walks In, it was the same thing. That song is about aliens, by the way.

You could be in the gutter and fall in love with someone, and you feel great. That's my honest opinion. I've witnessed both sides of that fence and being in love is where it's at.

We always sold 4 or 5 million records no matter what we did.

I had more of a vocal range. If you wanted to play a keyboard song, like Love Walks In, I can do it.

This is pop music. You've got a candidate for president of the United States using it, that's hitting the biggest audience you're ever going to hit in your entire friggin' life. And you don't want that? Bullshit. That's what you want. It's not even for success or fortune, it's because that's the power of the song.

I see couples fighting about the stupidest things. You just have to rise above everything.

In Van Halen there were moments, like in some of the ballads, I put my heart and soul into those records. Those lyrics when I sang 'em, I gave myself goosebumps.

It took me a long time to put it to use in things, but the name of my publishing company is Nine Music, and Red became my theme song.

Stop looking out, start looking in. Be your own best friend. Stand up and say, hey, this is mine!
Sammy Hagar

Yes, I'm looking at you, looking at me, looking at you, looking at me, looking back at you.

There are a lot of people going around where an alien took over their body, and their soul will actually leave and be, like, in a sleep or in a near-death situation.

Dave was great in Van Halen. No question about it. He was one of the best at being Mr. Rock Star. But it's sickening to see a guy still trying to be that with a wig on 20 years later.

I had written lyrics to a song called The Silent Extreme, which Alex later renamed Humans Being.

Those are the magical songwriting moments, when you have a partner that clicks like that. That's a dream come true, man.

I loved that song [Don't Tell Me], but man, it was dark. That song did nothing for Van Halen.

I had been in Africa for six weeks on a safari with my family. I said, You know, I made a lot of money. I am getting kind of burned out. I really want to do something special. So I went on this extended trip to Egypt, Kenya, Sardinia - I really did it, man. I was coming home, and while I was gone, they changed the speed limit from 65 to 55.

I was really wanting to be a rock star. I was saying, I am going to have a fancy car, I got to have fancy clothes, and I have got to play the whole role. Obviously, I meant business.
