Remembering Van Halen’s “Me Wise Magic”

This song was such an oddity for 1996.

Added to a greatest hits album in with another new song with Roth and spent weeks at #1 on the Rock chart. The last 2 VH songs with DLH. Always thought it was very underrated and definitely called back to their early days.

Great song. All of it - DLR's vocals, Mikey's bass, EVH's solo, and ALR's drumming is damn good

When they announced they were back together with DLR, and toured in 2007 (Wolfie on bass) was the milepost last moment in time for me that the world did not seem messed up.
I saw them in Seattle in December and I remember walking out thinking the world was right again.
Then there was 2008.

Can't Get This Stuff No More was the other new song on the Best Of album. Sounded like vintage VH but never really heard it get any radio play like Me Wise Magic. I was thrilled when they came out with new music with DLR but it proved to be short lived.

This is right at the time they appeared on that awards show, MTV Video Awards or some shite, and Roth came on stage with them and the place went nuts.
The good vibes lasted about five seconds before it all went to shite again.

Wow, this is an awesome VH tune. How did I not know this was out there?
I saw them in 2007 in Charlotte... first show of the tour. Sound was so awful. Seats sucked (sold out in seconds).
That concert is one of the reasons I don't like indoor venues. Too much echo.

Roth could still sing pretty well at the time. No telling how many stadiums they would have sold out had they reunited then rather than a decade later. Seems as though DLR and EVH were like oil and water. But they were better together than they were apart.

Mitch Malloy (who lives in Destin FL now) says that EVH asked him to be the new lead singer of VH around this time. He was getting ready to move to California and saw the DLR appearance on MTV and then bailed out knowing that he didn’t want to be a part of that situation. He said EVH told him that MTV pressured them to take DLR back. Supposedly they all regretted taking him back but MTV had too much clout
