More quotes by 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
I've always been into writing love songs.

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.

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.

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.

I can be singing about cat food and I'll make you think that I mean it.

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 just have a vision of something, and it seems to go a long way. One thought goes a long way.
Sammy Hagar
Write me up for 125, poster my face wanted dead or alive. Take my license all that jive, I can't drive 55.
Sammy Hagar
I didn't think I'd be around 30 years later

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.
Sammy Hagar
We always sold 4 or 5 million records no matter what we did.
Sammy Hagar
I loved that song [Don't Tell Me], but man, it was dark. That song did nothing for Van Halen.
Sammy Hagar
After I had my dream, I got into numerology. Like my buddy's name is Bill, and I would say, B is a two, and each I is a nine, and the L's are fours. And that's eight. I would figure out everybody's numerological single-digit number.
Sammy Hagar
Stop looking out, start looking in. Be your own best friend. Stand up and say, hey, this is mine!

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.
