Ryan tickles the ivory on Van Halen's biggest hit - kind of
A massive and instantly recognizable track from the 1980s
You’ve become pretty accustomed to Ryan, from 104.7 The Lizard, showing off his skills on the guitar.
But this week, he’s diving out of his comfort zone and straight into a massive synth sound of the '80s.
Ryan would be the first to admit he’s not one for tickling the ivories.
But he’s playing homage to this song’s hugely memorable keyboard line that comes from arguably the greatest guitar player ever.
This is Eddie Van Halen’s most successful hit.
Check out the video. You’ll recognize it in a millisecond!
