06. “Shy Boy,” David Lee Roth
Vai, Sheehan. Sheehan, Vai. When David Lee Roth combined the talents of these two stringmen, he unleashed the shred equivalent of a nuclear fission reaction. The furious four-handed tapping makes one realize the importance of science to our daily lives.


03. “Hot for Teacher,” Van Halen
Eddie uses his space-age finger slides and tremolo picking to sound like a laser weapon battle from a late-Seventies sci-fi flick, while brother Alex runs in place on his double bass pedals and David Lee Roth howls till his heart’s content. You don’t have to be Freud to figure out what pubescent fantasy an ending of this magnitude symbolizes. Orgasm. Oh, my gawd.

Both Great! I would through “One Foot Out the Door” and “Mean Street” in there too!

How about this one?

[Sam Vs. Dave]

I'd vote for Hotel California. I absolutely hate that song so I'm always super stoked when it's over...

Lol. The entire Hotel California album is absolutely stellar.

Lol, I despise that crap, too.

[JUNGLE DRUMMER]

Romeo Delight and Loss Of Control have pretty awesome endings IMO.

[Mean Streets]

I’d throw Drop Dead Legs out there, it’s just a stellar groove and Ed’s playing and kicks are perfect. Not flashy, just a bluesy groove with relaxed playing. The ending of this song is s song in and of itself

VH are masters of the ending, as they are of the intro, bridge, chorus, outro.

Hot For Teacher is a great example of how to end a VH song.

“Oh my God!”

Roth's outro scat-vocal with the crazy syncopated phrase/note entry points blows my mind... one of Roth's greatest moments in CVH

3:52

Agreed!

GGB, one of the tunes that would make a desert island VH compilation without a doubt!

[Raldo]

HFT definitely has a stellar ending!!
