I’m sure some of you have heard and or are well acquainted with top musicians David Lee Roth, Steve Vai, Billy Sheehan, and Gregg Bissonette. This song is one of their works from Roth’s solo album after leaving Van Hallen. “That’s Life” is a popular song written by Dean Kay and Kelly Gordon and first recorded in 1963 by Marion Montgomery which among others was also sung by Frank Sinatra.
In this album, Roth returned to an albeit hard rock sound featuring eclectic forays into a lounge, jazz, and speed metal. If you have never heard of this song, click on the play button, listen, and believe that even though I am a big fan of heavy metal, I have never shared that genre in its version but it is always something that is received by a wider audience.

Sounds like a combination of different genres… but there’s no trace of heavy metal there…
Great song… I haven’t heard songs from Van Halen for a long time…

This is a very good song. Once I have played it I have realised I had heard it before. Now I have included it on my Spotify playlists.
Maybe you can add another song from the same album; I’m Easy on your playlists…
Ok. Done. The title of the song is also in Spanish “I´m easy (soy fácil)” says the title.
I don’t know the contractor. But I really like the song. It has no trace of hard metal
Yep! Roth produced a different type of sound since leaving Van Halen, Vida.
That’s a new song to me, but I really enjoyed it! The makeup or I should say face paint is brilliant too.
Roth’s creativity is one that I really admire.
I am always learning a lot from the posts here.
This is a first for me, never heard this. Love the beat, and no it does not sound like metal. Sounds more like if the blues met show tunes.
Yep, This song doesn’t sound metal. Roth played a different kind of music since leaving Van Halen, and Vai made the different sounds thicker.
I know this song, would not know it was heavy metal.
You’re right, this is not a heavy metal song even though the singer is a former vocalist of the heavy metal group.
Nice song to listen to. But I don’t know anything about this group. This is not my favorite style.
I don’t know if you have ever known Van Halen, and Roth is a former vocalist of that super group, dear friend.
I hear some heavy metal. The beat is one that will draw much attention. Great one even though I am not a heavy metal fan.
Hello LaJenna. Yes, heavy metal beat is one that will draw much attention but this song is a lounge that is very easy listening, right?
You are right dear friend. Hope you are well and safe.
Thank you very much, LaJenna. Wish you all the best too.
I know the Van Hallen band, but I’ve never been a heavy metal fan …. I’ve never heard that song before, dear friend
Knowing that you know Van Halen has made me happy, dear friend. Especially if I know that there are one or two of their songs that you have listened to.
Btw, what is your favorite music, dear Lado.
To me, rock is the best … old rockers … Leed Zepelin, CCR, Rolling, AC-DC and I could list … Punk I listened to Heavy Metal too, it’s close to me not so much ….. now but I listen to some sentimental and romantic music
Ahh… That means our music tastes are the same, dear friend. It’s just that, I follow how Rock continues to shift until the heaviest like death metal.
We have very similar musical tastes …. the only difference is that I no longer follow the evolution of music …. now I don’t know any good rock bands …. if I want a good rock I listen to old bands
More or less that’s what I do too, dear friend. Old songs are often more fun and carry their own memories.
I totally agree with you, my friend
It’s the first time I listen this song. It seems suitable for these days…
Pertama kali? Lagu itu atau versinya?
Today you want to speak your language! Very nice!
Uppzzzsss… I mean
The first time? That song or the version?
Yes! The first time I listen to this song. Hard to believe, isn’t it?
Of course it is hard to believe given that you are a close friend of Frank Sinatra!
Every human being has some shortcomings. 🙂
Frank Sinatra sang me other songs, but not this one
Never heard a song is not a shortcoming, O Ileana, I have not even heard millions of songs!
Ah, if I could protest Frank Sinatra about it…
You can’t protest anymore! He just sang it to me a few minutes ago !!😀😀
I take my hat off to him! Apparently he really cares about you!
That was a nice surprise to see. Never watched that video before. Thanks for sharing my friend. Good to see you as always.
Roth is one of my favorite vocalists, even I once imitated the style of the stage clothing.
I would love to see that imitation, you should do it again and get photos. 🙂
It was difficult to do because almost all of my stage costumes in the past were gone, including my hair which had only a little left.
Oh well, I still have a visual in my mind. 🙂
Mungkin visual dalam pikiran Anda sama dengan saya, tetapi kenyataan fisik tidak lagi memungkinkan saya.
Upzz.. Its happened again… I mean;
Maybe the visuals in your mind are the same as mine, but physical reality no longer allows me.
