Van Halen/Hank Williams Mash-Up May Be The Worst Thing I’ve Heard
I’m not even sure how someone’s creative mind even goes here. Let me preface by saying I’m a HUGE, life-long Van Halen fan. I’ve seen them life with David Lee Roth as lead singer (in their prime) and with Sammy Hagar. Loved them both. So, when I say that this is the worst thing I’ve ever heard, it pains me deeply to make that declaration.
Van Halen’s first breakthrough top 40 single, “Jump,” came off their sixth album, “1984.” Now, infamous bootleg artist Bill McClintock has combined Roth’s vocals (and the video to “Jump”) with the video and audio of Hank Williams Jr. performing the instrumental track to his father’s “Your Cheatin’ Heart.” This is brutal. I can’t decide which is more blasphemous. Messing with VH or messing with Hank!
