They played it on the radio this morning.
Different.. It's different. Not what I was expecting. Yes, it's Van Halen. It does not sound like "Jump" at all.. But, do you recall the first time you heard it? You were like, wow... That is different, not what I was expecting. That's kinda like what Tattoo was for me.

Dave sounded like Dave... An older Dave, but Dave non the less.
Eddie sounded sharp and rippn' as always.
Wolfgang did a damn good job on bass. I was impressed. (Still want Mike)
Alex was Alex. Good as always.

I wish I could say I was blown away, but I can't. The song will grow on me I'm sure and being the die hard VH fan that I am, I'm sure I will buy the CD when it's available.
