I'm John Lee Hooker in the sense that he was a blues man and he played blues his whole life. I'm a rock guy and I'm going to play rock music my whole life.

More quotes by Sammy Hagar
So many things can get you high, I'm gonna try them all just once before I die.
Sammy Hagar
I wasn't writing the music. Ed would write a piece of music. I'd listen to it and come up with a melody and then we would arrange it. We'd put it together and I would write lyrics to my melodies.
Sammy Hagar
I loved that song [Don't Tell Me], but man, it was dark. That song did nothing for Van Halen.
Sammy Hagar
I always liked a good love song and I dig being in love.
Sammy Hagar
We always sold 4 or 5 million records no matter what we did.
Sammy Hagar
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.
Sammy Hagar
It's a good thing I don't read everything Eddie says, or I'd be up in arms and not enjoying my life.
Sammy Hagar
That song [Don't Tell Me] didn't take us anywhere, and I know why now. It wasn't what Van Halen fans wanted. It showed the darkness of Van Halen, and basically the end of the band.
Sammy Hagar
If I would go up on a high note, Eddie would want a low one. That's how petty the situation had become.
Sammy Hagar
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.
Sammy Hagar
Yes, I'm looking at you, looking at me, looking at you, looking at me, looking back at you.
Sammy Hagar
The reason my voice is sounding more passionate is because I'm singing directly from the heart.
Sammy Hagar
I didn't think I'd be around 30 years later
Sammy Hagar
I was loud and electric at night, got all shook up with Elvis.
Sammy Hagar
I looked at Mick Jagger and Keith Richards and the boys up there thinking, I want to be that.
Sammy Hagar
Love Walks In, it was the same thing. That song is about aliens, by the way.
Sammy Hagar
When we were on the road, I found out that my greatest hits album went Gold. They freaked out. Things really came to a head when we started arguing about a Van Halen greatest hits package.
Sammy Hagar
I can be singing about cat food and I'll make you think that I mean it.
Sammy Hagar
I've been drinking tequila for a long time now, and it's never been about drinking to get drunk. I don't do that. I never drink tequila during the day, and I don't drive at night.
Sammy Hagar
I had been reading this book about Zen Koan philosophy, and it was talking about the right here and the right now, and how important it is, and I was really trying to get there in my life.
