* * * *
Metaphors are not how we define territories; they are how we travel across thresholds between categories. They are bridges across difference. Through them, we connect the abstract and the concrete, the small and the large, the live and the inanimate, the human and the nonhuman. Sometimes the metaphors are built so deeply into language we hardly notice the bodily anatomy that gives mountains foothills, rivers headwaters and mouths (curiously, at opposite ends), needles eyes, vases necks, chairs arms, and tables legs. We think through our bodies, and that includes seeing bodies elsewhere, making bodies the terms of understanding how animate and inanimate, tiny and huge objects and systems work. Both needles and storms have eyes. Metaphor is the process of relating things that are alike in some fashion, to some degree, and the literal-minded object on the grounds of those differences while the metaphorically minded understand the limits of similarity.

Boxed Set Introduces Four Newly Remastered VH Studio Albums With Sammy Hagar, Plus Rarities Recorded Between 1989 And 2004
Tumblr media Tumblr media
5-LP And 5-CD Versions Arriving On October 6
PRE-ORDER NOW direct from VanHalenStore.com
Van Halen will release a new boxed set this fall spotlighting the band's second incarnation, with singer Sammy Hagar, guitarist Eddie Van Halen, drummer Alex Van Halen, and bassist Michael Anthony. The upcoming set includes newly remastered versions of four multi-platinum studio albums, along with a selection of rarities recorded between 1989 and 2004.
THE COLLECTION II will be available on October 6th on 5 Vinyl 180-Gram LPs for $124.98 and 5 CDs for $49.98. Pre-order both versions HERE. All the music in the set was mastered directly from the original master tapes, a process overseen by the band's longtime engineer, Donn Landee.
The new set is the long-awaited sequel to THE COLLECTION, a compilation released in 2015 that focused on the six studio albums recorded by the band's original line-up, which featured singer David Lee Roth. THE COLLECTION II picks up where its predecessor left off and covers the four consecutive #1 albums released during the Hagar era: 5150 (1986), OU812 (1988), For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge (1991), and Balance (1995).
The journey begins with 5150, Van Halen's seventh studio album and the band's first to claim the top spot on the Bilboard 200. Certified platinum six times in the U.S, the record treated fans to hits like "Dreams," "Love Walks In," and "Why Can't This Be Love" which peaked at #3 on the Billboard Hot 100. The group returned two years later with OU812, a quadruple-platinum smash that delivered four Bilboard Hot 100 hits, including "Finish What Ya Started" and "When It's Love."
The accolades continued with For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge, which earned Van Halen its first Grammy® Award for Favorite Heavy Metal/Hard Rock Album. Debuting at #1 and staying there for three weeks, the album achieved triple-platinum certification. The record produced an incredible seven singles, including hits like "Poundcake," "Top Of The World," and "Right Now."
In 1993, the band released its first live album, Live: Right Here, Right Now, before returning in 1995 with Balance, its final studio album with Hagar. The album was another commercial triumph, debuting at #1, selling more than three million copies, and earning a Grammy nomination for "The Seventh Seal."
THE COLLECTION II concludes with Studio Rarities 1989- 2004, an exclusive compilation that assembles eight gems from the Hagar era for the first time. Among these rarities is "Crossing Over" the B-Side to Balance's "Can't Stop Lovin' You", and the band's only non-album B-side.
The compilation boasts other exceptional highlights, including the band's cover of Little Feat's "A Apolitical Blues" and the instrumental "Baluchitherium" which were left off the vinyl versions of OU812 and Balance, respectively. Additionally, the set features two songs the band contributed to the Twister Soundtrack "Humans Being" and the Grammy-nominated "Respect The Wind."
Rounding out the set are "It's About Time", "Up For Breakfast", and "Learning To See" which were recorded during the band's temporary reunion with Hagar in 2004. All three debuted that year on Van Halen's second greatest hits collection, The Best of Both Worlds.
Sammy & Mike share their excitement:
Sammy Hagar: "Mikey and have been waitinga long time to get these remastered Van Halen records from my era. They did the whole nine yards. This stuff sounds SO GOOD!
These records were recorded before (without) ProTools or digital recording: it was analog on real to reel tape recorders. There's a very special sound to that type of recording. We were careful not to destroy any of that, but to re-master with more modern technical equipment to bring out that wonderful magical sound. It's never sounded better.
I know you're gonna enjoy it. There are some special bonus tracks in there. A Box Set. It's the whole Van Hagar era. All remastered. Finally! It's About Time! BOOM!"
Michael Anthony: "So excited about our Sammy era box set coming to ya!! Our longtime studio engineer Donn Landee remastered these albums and they are kicking ASS!"

Approximately 60 singles have been globally released from Van Halen's 12 studio albums. Only one of them ever featured a previously unreleased track on the B-side.
Fans who flipped over “Can’t Stop Lovin’ You,” which was released on March 14, 1995, as the third single from the group's Balance album, were treated to a new song called “Crossing Over." It's one of the most experimental tracks in the band’s catalog.
The roots of the song stretched back to 1983, when Eddie Van Halen demoed the track on his own, titling it “David’s Tune” for a friend who had taken his own life. The guitarist handled all the instruments, including drums and bass, and laid down some scratch lyrics. When Sammy Hagar joined the band in 1985, he was eager to flesh it out, but Van Halen rejected the invitation, and the track sat on the shelf for another decade.
Before the recording of Balance, Van Halen’s manager, Ed Leffler, died of cancer, so, in addition to thinking about the death of his own father, Hagar began mentally and lyrically considering the idea of what happens when a person dies and “crosses over” to the other side. According to Uncle Joe’s Record Guide, Eddie Van Halen caved and let the singer use the long-gestating music for what became “Crossing Over.”
Rather than redo the music entirely, the band left the original track with all of Eddie’s instrumentation and minimal vocals. But they remained in only the left channel. New music, with Alex Van Halen on drums and Hagar’s singing, panned across the music in stereo. But as interesting and distinctive as the song may have been, it was left off the album – at least in North America.
There was already a burgeoning controversy with the Balance cover art in Japan, because of its depiction of Siamese twin children on a seesaw. The artwork proved to be a stark reminder to residents of the country of conjoined Vietnamese twins Viet and Duc Nguyen, who were said to have experienced their birth deformity due to the usage of Agent Orange by the U.S. in the Vietnam War. The pair was separated with the explicit assistance of the Japanese Red Cross in 1988 in a highly publicized surgery.
Japanese consumers were so repulsed by the Balance cover art that it deeply affected sales. Warner Music Japan had anticipated some sort of reaction and had a backup image ready to go with just one child on the seesaw for pressings of the album in that country. Released one week later than the original import version, the Japanese edition quickly began to sell better than the U.S. pressing. It was one of the rare cases in Japan where the domestic outsold the import, as the region typically had difficulty selling CDs manufactured there because of the inflated price tag (Balance sold for approximately $4 more).
One of the methods Japan began using to move units of its homegrown products was to include some sort of bonus for fans. In the case of Balance, “Crossing Over” was tacked on to the end of the album, though it wasn’t indicated anywhere on the jacket or physical CD. Fans were clued in only by a sticker on the front and a Japanese insert card contained within the packaging. A similar move would occur when Van Halen released Best of Volume 1 the following year, with the Japanese edition including “Hot for Teacher” and shaving down one of the new tracks featuring David Lee Roth, “Can’t Get This Stuff No More,” to a radio edit. A sticker of the band logo was inserted into the package as well.
Van Halen's U.S. fans soon caught wind of the bonus track found on the Japanese edition of Balance, leading many to scramble to get a copy, often for two times the cost or more of a traditional LP. So, the band decided to add “Crossing Over” as the B-side to the “Can’t Stop Lovin’ You” single, touting it as a “non-album track” on various configurations of the release worldwide.

Day 13: Crossover. Based on a post-canon headcanon of the “Crossing Over” series by @/jabewostar on Wattpad. Basically, instead of the joke invite being sent to Bow, it is sent to Taco and ends up in the BFDIverse where BFB Taco takes it and goes on the cruise, being ejected from it when the ship is about to sink.

This word also confirms what God said about not supporting Radicalism.
Why Russia took in Hamas is beyond me and now this. SMH 🤦🏾‍♀️ It does no good to mock God.
I also heard Boko Harem is on the rise… which nations will help stamp them out because they are an ever increasing threat to democracy everywhere.
I forgot to mention the most important part of this message. The LORD woke me up the following morning after seeing his Mighty Right Hand, beside the mirror in the dream, he wrote
G O D
With his invisible 🫥 finger. I almost fell out of bed!!!!!
👀😳😅
Here is an image of the hand which was bigger than my son’s hand. He has the largest hands in the house. Everything God does is BIG.

God did say we would see Miracles, Signs and Wonders
PS. The hostages need to be let go and returned safe and sound to Israel. This is the last time the LORD is going to say this. This is also the last time he’s going to say we should support Israel 🇮🇱 We are in this fight against terrorists together 🤝 He has made it very clear 🪞 just like I like my mirrors ✨
Windex anyone?
You don’t have to believe me babes. God always proves himself. I’m just the Press Secretary 😅
PPS. Israel is not alone. God is with them. He told me to also say this and the hand is proof. So let us work with him and not against him.
Part 5 took forever to upload but here are the scrips.
