Quick Thoughts: An American hard rock band formed in Pasadena, California in 1972, this is the second entry for Van Halen on this rock blog, with the other song being "Cradle Will Rock". A nice rock ballad, this song was written by Van Halen in 1986 for their seventh album 5150, a reference to Eddie Van Halen's home studio in Studio City, CA., where every album from 1984 onwards was recorded. 5150 is taken from the California Welfare & Institutions code "5150", police radio code for insane".
Ranking from Original "Top 1000" List: 959
Added to my Personal List? YES
Total Songs Added to Final List: 26

Having grown up listening to mostly hip-hop, R&B, some alternative, and all sorts of music in Spanish, I decided it was time to give myself a personal survey of Rock music. My friend BJ Swanner compiled a "Top 1000 Rock Song List", aggregated from several "Top Lists". As I go through all 1,000 songs, I'll be creating my own list, sharing a brief post like this for all the songs that will make my final list. I will not be ranking the songs that make it to my final list.....for now.
