'Unchained' is a song from Van Halen's fourth album, Fair Warning. Vocalist David Lee Roth's working title for the song was 'Hit the Ground Running'. The song features prominent use of the MXR M-117 flanger, which became a popular sound and spurred sales of the pedal. A preset for the flanger was also included on the EVH Flanger MXR pedal. It uses a Drop Db tuning with suspended fourthchords interspersed. The song is notable for being producer Ted Templeman's only vocal contribution to the band when he says 'Come on, Dave, gimme a break!' during the interlude of the song.[2]
