Sammy Hagar & The Circle- "Don't Tell Me (What Love Can Do)" Van Halen (Circle @Home Sessions No. 9)

When I heard that Kurt Cobain had taken his own life, the first thing I thought of was I wish I were there and could have tried to save him. The original title for these lyrics were “I want to show you what love can do," but because it was such a dark horrible thing I just couldn’t shine a light on it. So I changed the final line to “Don’t tell me what love can do." P.S. It was also the time of the breaking up of Van Halen, our last album and tour so it added a lot of emotion, negativity and pain in the original vocal performance which surfaced the second I started singing this song for the first time since 1995. It's episode 9 of the Circle @Home Sessions. #CircleAtHome #SammyAndTheCircle #DontTellMeWhatLoveCanDo
