1980’s Home Video: Yankee Rose

by VHND — updated August 7, 2025 Leave a Comment

It’s 1986, and Paul and his little sister are going to perform a new song from Diamond Dave.

’39 years ago today, my sister and I remade the intro from David Lee Roth’s “Yankee Rose” music video! My doctor says I have to take a laxative!’

These kids remind us of how life was growing up in the eighties, and illustrate the influence of MTV, Van Halen, and David Lee Roth on the youth.

Watch Paul and his sister perform the rock classic, below.

And here’s the source of their inspiration:

These days, you can follow Paul on Instagram. And you can catch David Lee Roth on tour this summer!
