Panama

About Panama

"Panama" is a song from Van Halen's highly successful album 1984. It was the third single released from that record and is one of their most recognized songs. The song was written about a car. According to David Lee Roth this was because critics accused him of writing about nothing more than partying, sex, and automobiles but Roth realized that he had yet to write a song about cars. In an interview with Howard Stern, Roth explained the meaning behind the trademark song. .
