The Inspiration For Chickenfoot's Different Devil

(Rock News Desk) Sammy Hagar has revealed how a 70-year-old man's relationship with his long-time wife and his young girlfriend inspired him to finish a song which was about to be dumped from Chickenfoot's new album.

The track Different Devil from Chickenfoot III had a melody and arrangement but no lyrics, and after realising he had no ideas for the subject matter, singer Hagar retired to his hideaway in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, ready to abandon the entire piece.

That's when he ran into his friend. "There's an older gentleman I know," Hagar explains. "He's in his seventies and he's got this young girlfriend and she's hot. But he's been married for his whole life and he lives with his wife part-time. I don't know what's going on.

"But I say, 'Why don't you just move in with this chick, man? She's hot!' And he goes, 'Same hell, different devil.'" more on this story
