If y’all didn’t know, Van Halen is a classic rock band which changed the rock scene forever, especially with their guitarist, the late Eddie Van Halen, whom I consider one of, if not, the greatest guitarist of all time. It also happens to be one of my favorite music acts. Although at first glance, a rock band isn’t very connected with cars, a Van Halen partnership with Forza Horizon could introduce many players to this incredible band. VH also has some background with cars, with its members being car guys, their song Panama, which is about a car and has lots of car stuff, and their big car collection. First, there could be a few new cars added either for free, like the Barbie cars, or as a small DLC, like David Lee Roth’s Merc, EVH’s Dodge COE, 2000 Ferrari 550, and ‘70 Nova, and his 1993 Chevy C1500. Second, there could be a radio station with VH songs like Jump, You Really Got Me, Panama, Hot For Teacher, Runnin’ With The Devil, and maybe even Eruption to precede YRGM to accompany Horizon XS and Epitaph. Third, there could also be a few VH-themed horns, like Jump’s keyboard intro, Hot For Teacher’s drum intro, and some part of Eruption, maybe the tapping one. Even though most players don’t care about horns, these could be some cool ones to display some classic rock love in the game. Fourth, there could also be a Frankenstrat livery that can be for all cars, like the Hot Wheels Spectraflame colors. Fifth, and last but not least, IDK if this could be possible, but there could also be avatars of the band’s members, Eddie Van Halen, David Lee Roth, Alex Van Halen, and Michael Anthony, or maybe even of Eddie’s son, Wolfgang. I highly doubt that this could be possible, since Eddie died in 2020, but I decided to throw it in. I bet that FH has many classic rock fans, and this could be a great treat paying tribute to one of their favorite bands and real rock legends. Also, as another addition, EVH, Eddie’s guitar brand, could make a limited edition Forza Horizon-themed guitar or maybe even some guitar picks.
