Add your song meanings, interpretations, facts, memories & more to the community.
Seems to me a treatise on the music business.
"I guess less is more, Something special, something new Some brand new group to sink my teeth into"
i take it as a editorial on the vapid, clueless suits in the music industry who "pick the talent"
To further my point it’s what is going on, on “The Inside” of VH now.

I agree with you.
I agree with you.
No one's commented on this song?! I know, it doesn't really need an explanation, but it would be nice if someone else commented on it!

Guys this song is clearly a slap in David Lew Roths face!!! You see Sammy got this job by not just being himself no he went out and bought some brand new shoes and he walk like someone else. Listen to the entire songs lyrics and you will get it. He tries to compromise But Dave don’t know what compromise is. Remember this is the first disc post Dave with Sammy.

All right, here's my meaning to the song. It's about how people judge other people by how they dress. And how new clothes can change your personality? I'm not sure about the second one, but it sounds good.
The song is about Sammy Hagar replacing David Lee Roth in 1985 after he took off.
