The US rock singer Sammy Hagar has witnessed lots of strange things in this world and he would like you to know about them, so he passed word onto Classic Rock. The first is about aliens, whose existence the former Van Halen frontman was prompted to look into after having a dream about them. It’s always dreams, isn’t it?
“I started looking into it and started reading books about alien encounters,” he told Classic Rock. “I became a big believer and I still am a huge believer. Anyone that thinks we’re the only life in this universe is crazy! Those are the crazy people! Not the guys going round saying, 'I went up in a rocket ship'”. It could just be that everyone’s crazy, Sammy. Sammy? Sammy? Ach, he’s not listening, he’s still talking about aliens: “It’s easier for me to talk about now. Twenty years ago you were tagged as crazy and you could lose your job and your friends for it.” Not anymore, he explained. People were getting clued up and Sammy was of the opinion that the truth is out there: “I think the possibilities are just vast and it really intrigues me.”
