5150 - Van Halen - MP3 instrumental karaoke

One could argue that, by the mid-1980s, American hard rockers Van Halen were on top of the world—four of their albums (Van Halen II, Women and Children First, Fair Warning, and Diver Down) had attained multi-platinum status and their sixth studio full-length 1984 had become a smash commercial success thanks to their first Number 1 hit single "Jump." However, creative differences within the band would soon lead to the departure of lead vocalist David Lee Roth, who was swiftly replaced by singer-songwriter Sammy Hagar. Against all odds, this abrupt changing of the guard paid off handsomely for the California natives, as their seventh studio album 5150, named after Eddie Van Halen's home studio, earned them their first Number 1 record on the Billboard 200. Despite not having been officially released as a single, the album's title track "5150" found the band striving towards a more mature sound, walking the delicate balance between party rock and solemn guitar orchestration.
