More quotes by Sammy Hagar
I didn't think I'd be around 30 years later
Sammy Hagar
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.
Sammy Hagar
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.
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
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 was loud and electric at night, got all shook up with Elvis.
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.

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
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
The reason my voice is sounding more passionate is because I'm singing directly from the heart.
Sammy Hagar
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
I always liked a good love song and I dig being in love.
Sammy Hagar
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.
Sammy Hagar
If you have a higher reason ... than just to make money... it will bring you longer fulfillment. And it won't feel like work.
Sammy Hagar
I feel it's such a tragic thing [Kurt Cobain's suicide]. Here is a guy, a young guy, that had everything in his hands. He could have had a great life. He had a wife, he had a child, he had a fantastic career. He was important to a generation. And for him to do that - I didn't like that. I thought that was just wrong.
Sammy Hagar
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
I would rather sing about my love affair or about a woman or to a woman than some guys any day.
Sammy Hagar
I looked at Mick Jagger and Keith Richards and the boys up there thinking, I want to be that.
Sammy Hagar
I see couples fighting about the stupidest things. You just have to rise above everything.
Sammy Hagar
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.
