Sammy Hagar “Right Now” Live on the Stern Show chords
Start Jamming...
I'm thinking of the song right now and I have read you felt this was the first time you really wrote a very serious
Van Halen lyric.
Well, I wrote the lyrics when we started that record and I kept singing them to Eddie right now
And he you know, yeah, okay.
I said just trying to write something.
I really got this great thing
I thought it was really good.
I was laying on the beach
It was time to go to the studio and I and you know, my wife's yelling up at the top
Hey, you got to get going.
I'm sitting man.
I'm going man
I just want to be here right here right now and I thought oh, there you go
So I started writing that lyric and Ed had this piano part at the same time and he kept saying
You know like the Joe Cocker song like feeling.
All right, I'm going man.
I ain't hearing it.
I ain't hearing it
I ain't hearing he ain't hearing my lyric all of a sudden at the end of the album six eight months later
We took a long time making that record all of a sudden.
I heard it
He's just playing a piano just goofing off and I go right now
You know boom done that was a freakiest song we ever wrote together because it was great
But it was just weird that would neither one of it
We didn't communicate well on that song and I think it's one of your most successful songs
It really was got more, you know awards and stuff than anything we've done and honestly in concert
We play this song all the time in the circle and it's like yeah, that's when the audience just they just scream right now
It's it's one of those I can't drive 55 moments, you know
Yeah, you know and that would you do a little of it?
Let's celebrate the absolute or that you guys [Cm] are going on
