- Yankee Rose (1986) Now this is how you make a comeback. The gloriously OTT first single from Eat ‘Em And Smile had the rock world believing, if only for four minutes, that leaving Van Halen was the smartest move DLR ever made.
- Goin’ Crazy (1986) The second single from Roth’s brilliant debut solo album, 1986’s Eat ‘Em And Smile, is the perfect distillation of the DLR ‘brand’, a song deliberately designed to make the listener feel like this is Roth’s world, and we’re lucky to live in it.
- California Girls (1985) Truthfully we could have compiled a Top 10 DLR Cover Songs list here, with the likes Just A Gigolo and That’s Life contributing massively to the singer’s popularity in the mid ‘80s, but that’d be cheating, so we’ve confined ourselves to selecting this one, the outrageously upbeat Beach Boys cover at the heart of Roth’s Crazy From The Heat.
- Just Like Paradise (1988) As perfect a pop-rock song as Roth ever sang with VH, Just Like Paradise is one of those sun-streaked, convertible-top down, speeding-down-the-Pacific Highway songs which instantly transports the listener to California.
- "Unchained" From: Fair Warning(1981) "Unchained" is a microcosm of everything that makes Van Halen one of rock's elites: Eddie's titanic, constantly moving riffs; Alex and Anthony's throbbing drum-and-bass grooves; Anthony's pitch-perfect backing vocals and Roth's defiant, king-of-the-world shrieks.
- "Everybody Wants Some!!" From: Women and Children First(1980) is proof that Van Halen was always more than just three guys backing their generation's best guitar player.
- "Eruption" From: Van Halen(1978) It took Eddie Van Halen less than two minutes to change the face of rock music forever, becoming the electric guitar's most messianic figure since Jimi Hendrix and setting a bar that no six-stringer in his wake would ever touch.
- "Mean Street" From: Fair Warning(1981) Fair Warning's dark eccentricity is immediately evident from the bizarro tapping licks that begin the opening track "Mean Street."

- 'Just Like Paradise' From 'Skyscraper' (1988) While his first solo album found him nobly resisting the siren's call of keyboard-rock (which had, after all, served him so well both on Van Halen's '1984' and his own covers EP), 'Just Like Paradise,' one of David Lee Roth's top-charting songs ever, finds him giving into the temptation.
- 'Yankee Rose' From 'Eat 'Em and Smile' (1986) David Lee Roth came flying out of the chute on this, his first proper solo single. In a ballsy attempt to one-up his former band, Roth hired a guitar whiz and a bassist who liked to play in the same virtuosic style, then let them try to outdo each other while he set out trying to modernize the national anthem.
- 'California Girls' From 'Crazy From the Heat' (1985) Now, if you get right down to it, all David Lee Roth really did here was invite the whole world into his Beach Boys karaoke party for a few minutes.
- 'Big Trouble' From 'Eat 'Em and Smile' (1986) The highlight of 'Eat 'Em and Smile''s brilliantly sequenced second half, 'Big Trouble' finds Steve Vai's guitar tastefully restrained, as if roaring from a distance.
