e/Unchained (song)

Information
has gloss	eng: Unchained is the best-known song from Van Halens 1981 album Fair Warning. Considered to be one of the bands signature tracks, it is instantly identifiable and one of the most requested songs on FM radio in the 1980s. Eddie Van Halen wrote the main riff at 4:00 in the morning with engineer Donn Landee while they were doing some overdubbing on the album. The song features prominent use of the MXR M-117 flanger, which has become a popular sound and a preset for the flanger setting was included on the EVH Flanger MXR later manufactured. It uses a dropped-D tuning down a half step with suspended fourth chords interspersed. The song is also notable for being producer Ted Templeman's only vocal contribution to the band when he says "Come on, Dave, gimme a break!" during the interlude of the song. He thought David Lee Roth was getting too obnoxious and he jumped in. The band liked the way it sounded and kept it in the song.
