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.

More quotes by Sammy Hagar
I'm a co-writer, publisher of that song [Right Now ], so for it to get accepted, we had to sign off on it. I signed off in a second. You bet that anyone can use this. I don't care. You can use it for anything. If it is to inspire people in the positive sense.
Sammy Hagar
I just have a vision of something, and it seems to go a long way. One thought goes a long way.
Sammy Hagar
I looked at Mick Jagger and Keith Richards and the boys up there thinking, I want to be that.
Sammy Hagar
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.
Sammy Hagar
I'm writing my biography. It's my business. This is what happened in my life, and I'm writing about it.
Sammy Hagar
I would like to enlighten people.
Sammy Hagar
We needed time off from each other after our last tour because there was a lot of personal stuff we had to take care of. Eddie needed hip replacement surgery. Al needed his back worked on. And I was going to have a baby.
Sammy Hagar
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.
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
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
Everybody has weird dreams, but a usual weird dream is, okay, so your mom's driving a car and she's a dog.
Sammy Hagar
So many things can get you high, I'm gonna try them all just once before I die.
Sammy Hagar
I had written lyrics to a song called The Silent Extreme, which Alex later renamed Humans Being.
Sammy Hagar
Yes, I'm looking at you, looking at me, looking at you, looking at me, looking back at you.
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
Those are the magical songwriting moments, when you have a partner that clicks like that. That's a dream come true, man.
Sammy Hagar
I would rather sing about my love affair or about a woman or to a woman than some guys any day.
Sammy Hagar
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.
Sammy Hagar
Yeah, yeah, I've been Beatled, I've been Rolling Stoned.
Sammy Hagar
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.
