Dear God, it is a terrible world without Edward.

Not to distract from EVH but Michael Anthony is solid as the earth it's self.

This is some of Ed's best playing. While some of the Roth era riffs are really strong, the Hagar era songs are all much more difficult and exhibit Ed's growth and complexity as a guitarist. For anyone who tries to play some of it, you know what I'm talking about. The fact that Ed does it do effortlessly and in time illustrates what a master he is, not to mention that he penned the whole thing as a composer. Long live the King.....

5 minutes of some of the best guitar playing you will ever hear

The riffs in this song are just so awesome

Eddie's playing on this song is INSANE!!!!!!

Eddie’s rhythm playing is amazing so intricate yet so groovy

No one, and I mean absolutely No one in this world is or was as melodic, masterfull, and rhythmic as Eddie. This world really does suck without him here, but I'm so thankful to have grown up with him and Van Halen from day one!

More proof that no other player has or will EVER touch Eddie's playing. Truly the GOAT!!!

Balance had Eddie’s best guitar tone, and no one can convince me otherwise.

Still don’t understand why people hate on this album. The riffs are killer and this one of them. Such an Eddie groove.

The hayday for VH right there. They were firing on all cylinders during this time. The energy was unbelievable!

Christ he was from another planet ... when you’re feeling down remember you lived in the same time as EVH ❤️❤️

04:36: to me this is the greatest version of Eddie. This guy was the greatest right ear and hand that rock music has produced in the modern era. The groove, the riff, tone...genuinely brings a tear to the eye hearing this in it's live, flawless magnificence...and he's smiling all the way through it.

When Eddie and Mikey played the bridge right after the solo together my jaw hit the floor. Kick ass

Van Halen played solo almost at the same time rythm and lead guitar,he was incredible,a unique talent!!😊✌

I think it's amazing how young the people in the audience were. After the first album in 78 they still had young fans 17 years later.

My favorite VH tune with Sammy. My heart dies with EVH. So thankful for his contribution to life and not just music!

So scary that he never took a lesson and changed guitar playing forever, He is the BAR! It will never be do again

His live performances are what make him the 🐐.

Eddie is so good in this it sounds like there's two guitar players. It's impressive how effortlessly he switches between rhythm and lead guitar.

This is some of the best stuff Eddie has ever played, but it's overshadowed by Michael rocking the hardest mullet ever!

Sit back and listen! His guitaring was out of this world. The band TIGHT as hell! He's in the same group as Jordan Brady, Gretzky. G.O.A.T!

playing and tone was about as good as it ever was in 95

Got this album. Learned this song the same day. Couldn't get any band I played in to do it. Still jam it occasionally.

RIP Eddie van Halen I was there in Amsterdam in 1995, great show & my favourite line up. Rock on Eddie

Eddie, you were the coolest dude ever!!!!! RIP😢🙏🏻🌈

Nobody's talkin about how creative and killer Alex's drum parts are on this tune. One of those I listen to and truly wonder "How the hell'd they write that?!"

Eddie's rhythm play and the genius of his songwriting is amazing. He changes Rhythm in this song while the band try to keep up with his riffs. God bless you Eddie Van Halen RIP.

Not only was Ed the best to EVER touch six strings...the whole band was awesome as well....

The absolute KING. I still cannot believe he’s gone 😢

Underrated tune

If you have ears attached to your head which are connected to a brain and you listen to this , you’ll know who the greatest guitarist of all time .. the GOAT , EVH!

There is so much going on here. The tone is massive. SLO100. This is a masterpiece.

Amazing, Eddies the GOAT. This video is 5 minutes long and Eddie just kills the last 3 minutes. Listen to the last 3 minutes without watching the video. It's unreal! How is this not one of the greatest VH songs of all time?

That's one of the best drop D tones ever, EVH was a master of tone.

45 years later and I'm still playing air guitar with Eddie.

Van Halen is awesome with Dave and Sammy. RIP EVH

Eddie looks happy and like he’s enjoying himself here. Everybody wins (:

Eddie sounds like he's playing 3 guitars. Wow! Power of EVH

Musical genius at work RIP

Everything on this video is perfect, Ed's guitar sounds amazing, Alex sounds awesome as always, Mike sounds incredible with his vocals and Hagar's voice is incredible!! I love it.

Best rock guitar sound...and has not been preseeded...

Balance had some solid songs. My fav Van Halen period. His playing was at another level, here.

With out a doubt, the King! Eddie's forgot more notes than most guitarists will ever know.

I've seen Van Halen in concert 4 times in my life. June 9, 1979 was the first time at the Texxas Jam. Three other times in the 80's, and twice with The Red Rocker. I'm still amazed at how much Eddie accomplished in his short life. Makes me sad to realize there will be no more Van Halen.

the walk up thing with the weird delay pedal setting Edward does at 2:26 gets me EVERY time!!!

Whats crazy is Eddie has this riff back in the 80s. Theres a video of him playing at his studio

Listened to Amsterdam on the way to work this morning at 4 am on 10🤘🏻

That last solo was just blistering. It just makes my heart race

that's why VH was great: at its core, it was a electric blues/R&R/groove band with tapping and big choruses

Jesus Christ almighty that tone is MASSIVE. That's the holy grail right there.

One of Ed’s best riffs. Cool as hell. Rip

Video and TV doesn't do Eddie justice. I was standing in front of him at the '88 Monsters of Rock tour with my jaw on the floor the whole time. This guy is beyond amazing.

What I would have given for one final Van Halen reunion with Eddie and Sammy who finally made peace. Just to hear them play Right Now, Top of the World, and Amsterdam.

No words. Incredible

Band was great on this, singer great! Eddie’s riffs and tone were as good or better than anything I have ever heard from him. Wow

That was amazing! I think this was the peak of the band with this line up. I understand that things have to change. I love the new stuff with David and Wolfgang. But this was just an incredible line up. No one can ever deny the incredible impact that Sammy and Michael had on VanHalen. I just wish they could all just get along.

To all the neh sayers , haters and down right idiots who didnt think Eddie was the best ever… go think again! Listen to this song! Hands down best ever period ! EVH and Van Halen! Never be another like them!

Van Halen is one of the few bands where 2 lead singers have managed to forge a legacy with the band on their own merits rather than riding the coattails of their predecessors. The only other bands I can think of that have truly achieved this are AC/DC, Black Sabbath, and maybe a couple others. That really is a testament to Van Hagar’s skills as songwriters and live performers. Few other bands can cite their 1st singer and 2nd singer as being equally deserving of praise for their contributions to the longevity of a band.

1995 = SuperHalen, incredible.

RIP Eddie. I had never seen this video before today, not even familiar with the song. Best guitar tone ever!! The entire band is absolutely killing it!!

King Ed… we just try to imitate your legacy! Thank you for everything!

WOW! FUCKING WOW! I remember this song, but just barely. I was working so much back then I just missed it, and a lot of other good music just because I got caught up in the rat race, and for reasons that I can't say or explain, the almighty dollar was what I got wrapped up in. Shameful to me now. Anyway, this just blew me away! I gotta say that I think this performance is incredible! All of it! But Eddie's playing, and his solos on this are just on a whole different level!! JESUS PENIS!!! JUST FUCKING AMAZING!!! I think this is the best solo of his that I've ever seen!! WOW!!! THANKS FOR POSTING THIS!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I MUST GO AND PISS MY NEIGHBORS OFF NOW, BECAUSE THEY WILL ALL KNOW THIS SONG VERY SHORTLY. Be safe out there everyone! If you haven't noticed, there are mental midgets wreaking havoc every place they go!! Good Luck!! R.I.P. EDWARD. YOU ARE DEARLY MISSED!!

One of the best compositions ive heard never before!!! Absolutely amazing

Balance was their best album

My favorite song and my favorite band

Seen Van Halen at the US Festival in 1983. Been hooked ever since. Never heard a guitar with such Clean, Crisp, Amazing Tones in those days. What song do you think Greatly exhibits his multiple Rhythm to Lead transition mastering? I listened and thought.. then realized.. all of them lol. I think "Amsterdam" does a good job of it. Eddie, I miss so much.. Your Stage Rresence, Harmonic voice and "Patented Flying Jump Kicks." Your musical talent speaks for itself. ⚡🎸

Best guitar tone ever perhaps

Just SO awesome. These guys are so tight on this song; such a complex arrangement and they pull it off live perfectly.

First time hearing this live version. Awesome! Goosebumps 2ft high.

3:59-4:59.. enough said. The GOAT lives on forever!!

2:42- 3:05 Eddie and Mikey.... Classic the two of them together miss that about this band.

For a long time, this was not one of my favorite VH songs. Until recently, when I recorded a drum cover video for an audition. After spending days and days to figure out what was happening, I fell in love with it :)

Wow man Michael Angelo is SOLID! also EDDIES TONE IS INSANE 🤯🤯🤯🤯🎸🎸🎸🎸

I was at this concert, still have my ticket stub. I’m 51, long time ago now. Unbelievable, 27 years ago, it seems like yesterday to me now. Van Halen played 2x consecutive nights,I was at the second show. I remember Alex with his neck brace on. I think it was Kenny Wayne Shepherd that opened for them that time.

Hard to even want to be alive without Ed here. It fuckin hurts man!

Listen to Alex..Man!All the best bands had brother's in them.That Van Halen heartbeat rocks forever.Best humans ever got

One of my favorites.Eddie's solo says it all !

3:03 Such an epic breakdown!

That tone kicks you right in the gut

A monster of a song guitar-wise. Unreal

i remember when i saw this show, many years ago, a friend recorded in VHS, after he shows me and other friends, and was very Amazing to see EVH play live, i understood that EVH is The Best guitar player.

I remember hearing this the first time. I had already quit smoking weed due to random drug testing, this made me wanna go to the Netherlands just to do it again.

UNDERRATED SONG! Should've been a big hit!

Such an awesome album

I am really torn if I'm a bad person..my grandpa passing was sad no tears though, my uncle same..Eddie passing has crushed me.

The guitar in this is mind blowing

Michael is such a Underrated bass player

Dammm Eddy plays good stuff at this song, loved this song, childhood memories in the Netherlands 🇳🇱👌

Sammy is the man indeed !!!!!

Desde argentina...para mi my guitar hero!!! el mejor de todos por composición y performance !! los amo y con Sammy fueron la mejor versión!!! me gusta también con DLR.. pero sólo son gustos nomas!!! al final sólo queda la música que es lo que verdaderamente importa!!! saludos !!!

As sad as it is EVH is no longer around just as sad to me that we never got to see this 4 some of VH by far the best in my book. Loved to have seen Sammy and Eddie make up long enough for one more album and tour.

The sound, the playing, the riff EVH was EVERYTHING

Great great times! Eddie in his top form!!!

THANK YOU FOR THIS!!

...caught a couple dates on this tour...Love this song!

Top shelf stuff here!!!

Riff genious had so many good times at Van Halen concert back in the day so sad its over guess our youth is really gone

Hagar sounded great on this one. He definitely got over some voice issues he had earlier in this tour. For whatever reason I like this live version better than the studio one.
