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.

I would like to enlighten people.

When I want to go be Chickenfoot, I go out and I'm the artist. It's all musical.
Sammy Hagar
Image
When I left Van Halen, I went in the studio and made a CD called Marching to Mars with all studio musicians. I did it immediately. With the disappointment riding on my shoulders of the breakup of the band.

Write me up for 125, poster my face wanted dead or alive. Take my license all that jive, I can't drive 55.

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.

Image
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.

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.

If I would go up on a high note, Eddie would want a low one. That's how petty the situation had become.

Those are the magical songwriting moments, when you have a partner that clicks like that. That's a dream come true, man.
Sammy Hagar
Image
I'd say it [I Can't Drive 55] has probably been the most successful song I've ever been involved with, including any Van Halen songs.
Sammy Hagar
Image
I just have a vision of something, and it seems to go a long way. One thought goes a long way.
Sammy Hagar
Image
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

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

I wish I would have known Kurt Cobain. I would have been the first guy there to get him help, doing anything I could have. I just felt like the people around him kind of let him down.
Sammy Hagar
Image
And for him [Kurt Cobain] to do that [suicide] - I didn't like that. I thought that was just wrong. It just sent a bad message to a troubled generation.

The good thing about breaking up is that you have nothing else to lose.

I had a solo career before Van Halen. My fan base filtered through Van Halen with me and came right on out the other side with me.
Sammy Hagar
Image
I had more of a vocal range. If you wanted to play a keyboard song, like Love Walks In, I can do it.

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.
