Van Halen - Could This Be Magic? скачать видео бесплатно

Zach Carter

Out upon the islands on a cool summer night, buddy, you don't got to hurry. Take your time. What you need is on the menu and you get it tonight. Buddy, you got womens on your mind. Could this be magic, or could this be love? Could this turn tragic? You know that magic often does. And I see lonely ships upon the water. Better save the women and children first. Sail away with someone's daughter. Better save the women and children first. I hear music on the landin', and there's laughter in the air. Just could be your boat is comin' in. Yeah, you're leanin' back, and your foot's tappin' and you got your head right. There's a full moon out tonight. Baby, let's begin. Could this be magic, or could this be love? Could this turn tragic? You know that magic often does. And I see lonely ships upon the water. Better save the women and children first. Sail away with someone's daughter. Better save the women and children first.

The opening track, "And the Cradle Will Rock...", begins with what sounds like a guitar, but is, in fact, a phase shifter-effected Wurlitzer electric piano played through Van Halen's 1960s model 100-watt Marshall Plexi amplifier.The album is somewhat different from their first two albums in the way that it features more studio overdubs, and less emphasis on backing vocals. "Could This Be Magic?", conversely, contains the only female backing vocal ever recorded for a Van Halen song; Nicolette Larson sings during some of the choruses. The rain sound in the background is not an effect. It was raining outside, and they decided to record the sound in stereo using two Neuman KM84 microphones, and added it to the track.Only one single was released from the album, the keyboard driven "And the Cradle Will Rock..." Although the single was not a success like previous singles "Dance the Night Away" or the cover of "You Really Got Me", the album itself was well received and further entrenched the band as a popular concert draw. The song "Everybody Wants Some!!" was also a concert staple through the 1984 tour, and continued to be played by David Lee Roth after he left Van Halen.The album contains a track at the end of "In a Simple Rhyme", a brief instrumental piece entitled "Growth", which begins at 4:19. While "Growth" faded out on the original vinyl LP and cassette, it was finally given a cold ending at full volume on the compact disc. At the time the band was toying with the idea of starting what would become their next album Fair Warning with a continuation of "Growth", but this did not occur. "Growth" was a staple of the band's live shows with Roth and often used as the start of their encores. Several outtakes from these sessions exist, including an unreleased instrumental titled often referred to as "Act Like It Hurts", which was the title Eddie Van Halen originally wanted for "Tora! Tora!" "Act Like It Hurts" also provided a riff for "House of Pain", released on 1984."Everybody Wants Some!!" was featured in the 1985 comedy Better Off Dead, during a sequence featuring a singing, guitar-playing claymation hamburger. A nod is given to Eddie in the animation, as the hamburger's guitar sports the Frankenstrat design made famous by him. "Everybody Wants Some!!" is also featured in the 2009 comedy/horror film Zombieland.

Ha! Nicolette Larson.

I totally concur with regards to Eddie's slide playing!

This song is all Dave. He wrote it. Ed is just along for the ride. This is why Van Hagar never lived up to the original. Dave Van Halen had soul. Sammy could never duplicate the magic.

Here's something that might have slipped by many people, but this song sounds remarkably like "Prodigal Son" from Beggars Banquet by The Rolling Stones. It very well may have been an influence on this song, or maybe it's a coincidence. Actually, the Stones didn't write Prodigal Son---it was originally a Robert Wilkins number. Anyway, check it out if you haven't heard it---you'll definitely hear a similarity to "Could This Be Magic", which is great in it's own right. I really like when Dave sings in this style---soulful, smokey, bluesy and black sounding, like on the beginning of "Ice Cream Man" and on "Big Bad Bill".

I'm not sure to catch the meaning of the lyrics... There's a boat sinking and he managed to save himself with a random girl he might bang on an island or somewhat ?

The guitar intro reminds me of that STP song "Big Empty", lyric "Driving faster in my car..." Also the Chorus of "Lonely ships across the water, Better save the Women & children first, Sail away with someone's daughter, Better save the women & Children first" It reminds me of a Beastie Boys track from "licensed To Ill", I can't put my finger on it.

What does "fap" mean?

Dale Koeff

Harmony vocals are by Nicolette Larson. This is the first time that someone outside of the band sang on a VH record.
