I heard a short cut of their ne single. I would of been much better to "cover" another "Kinks" song. Stock up - Ray Davies, stock falling - Van Halen. Orange77

Same thing different decade, critics have always panned VH and here it is again. If they had put out some song that they wrote yesterday all of you would be saying, 'Man this does not sound like VH". Now you got something that sounds like classic VH but your not happy. personally, I would like new stuff mixed in with some old reworked stuff so that we still get a little taste of classic VH.

How can you rip yourself off. So they came up with riff and melody years ago. It's their music. They always did that.

Are you people for real? Are you just looking for controversy? What is this wrong that they're guilty of exactly. That a songwriter and musician as prolific as EVH had an entire catalogue of unreleased material from a dozen years ago and decides to rework it and put it into a new album does not mean ripping off. What a bunch of wankers you people are. Tatoo is a brilliant and catchy and fun song. that's the only standard to go by. whoever thinks this is ripping off simply does not understand a musician's process.
