"It's About Time" is a 2004 Van Halen track with Sammy Hagar out front, singing lead and playing both acoustic and electric guitar, and written by Hagar with Alex and Edward Van Halen. The credits tell their own story: Edward handles guitar, keyboards and the bass too, while Michael Anthony turns up only among the backing singers, next to Alex and Edward.

Alex plays drums and percussion. Edward co-produced it with Glen Ballard and co-mixed it with Mike Shipley, and Bill Malina engineered, so the brothers' fingerprints are on nearly every stage of the thing, from the writing to the final mix.
