Why Can´t This Be Love

**Crossing Over** · 10.28.00, 06:38 PM

Oh !!!! Yeah!!!!

Amazing song!!!

One of my Hagar´s favorite songs...

Right now i´ve listed 4 diferent version:

1.Original version from 5150 and The Best of
2.Live version from Live:RHRN
3.Hagar version with The Waboritas Live
4.Live version with Cherone

I love Live RHRN version, cause Eddie´s on guitar and Hagar on vocals...but I like a lot the Cherone one because Mike and Eddie sing.

I agree, it's a great song. Have you ever heard the version on the Everybody Wants Some tribute CD? It sounds like an old Beatles song, with the instrumentation and interpretation. Great song to sing along too, even if I have no business doing so.

Glenn I have that tribute CD and I agree...
It IS very Beatles sounding... I like that version..

I also like the versions of Jump and Dance The Night Away. Very different sounding versions! I like them!

Damnit, why does someone always have to ruin the feel good atmosphere around here?

I really enjoy the intro to the song, it's a neat touch, especially considering you need something that grabs your attention after 11 years of DLR.

Very cool the way it was done with Gary, it was neat to see everyone get some vocals for once.

Right now it's my favorite VH song!

The Lyrics are awesome...actually everything about this song is incredible!!!

I also love the vocal part when Sammy sings de de de with the synth, that was a great touch by Sammy.

Sorry. It's not one of my favorites. I remember the first time I heard it. I immediately knew who it was, but it didn't ROCK like I knew both VH and Hagar could. It was sorta like the way I felt when "Jump" came out. I knew it was Van Halen, but it sure as hell wasn't "Mean Street".
