    Strange that this would be posted here, ’cause they’re all pretty spot on– EXCEPT the VH parody! It was pretty awful, especially the Roth impression.

    I thought it was especially humorous at the Van Halen part ” Thats Right!….Oh!!!….I said it was snowing outside!!! ” Genius!

  • Hampus

    what van halen song is this? something from “rarest covers and demos”?

  • troutboy4u

    sucks

  • Big Al

    Since when does Rob Zombie sound like Scott Weiland?

    To ALL Van Halen members (past and present) and to ALL Van Halen Fans!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!

  • dave

    SNORE!

  • Amad

    C’mon guys, don’t be such downers. The ACDC sounded the most accurate without really being funny. Ozzy and Zombie were unremarkable, but the Halen one was Hillarious, especially when the subtitle read, ???????. Very funny!!!

  • silentsea

    AC/DC actually did a Christmas song, and it was much better than this.

    All musical critiques aside…The Van Halen segment cracked me up…”I ain’t lyin’ its snowin’ outside!” This would make great fodder material for Bob Rivers (famous for “I am Santa Claus”, “Jingle Hells Bells”, “Chipmunks roasting on an open fire”, etc…)

  • Jero

    funny!

  • Mark

    Don`t know about the rest of you guy`s but VH part cracked me up .

  • Jeff

    What a bunch of nerds! It was supposed to be FUN! Some of you take Van Halen WAY to serious! I bet Ed and Dave even laughed.

  • Jdogg5150

    This was pretty dam funny. You guys can’t tell me the part where ‘Dave’s’ lyrics are ???? ???? ???? wasn’t freak’n halarious!

  • Michael

    I agree with Jeff. I thought the whole thing was funny. It’s hard to find people who sound even remotely close to Dave. He has a very unique voice. I thought the guy did a good job. Happy holidays to all that read this. Here’s a toast to a new album by VH in ’09!!

  • pushtoshove

    You know….Its hard enough to be in a garage band with nothing to lose and all the drama that goes with it…i guess no matter how much success you have its all the same…here’s to hoping everybody who hears this lightens up and realizes how funny life is ….Happy Holidays and lets have a great 2009!

    Stay cool…

    Overall Klepacki’s work is very good–I really enjoyed his music for the classic “Red Alert” videogames a few years ago.

    If those songs were performed by the real artists, I’d buy several copies of that CD for stocking stuffers.

  • Michael

    Good stuff. They all very much resemble the original artists. VH fans need to get over themselves. It’s a joke guys. You all sound personally offended. That is the closest thing to new VH that you all might get! LOL

    I liked the Rob Zombie carol better than VH’s
