Wolfgang Van Halen is off the market, ladies. The son of Eddie Van Halen just popped the question to his longtime girlfriend, Andraia Allsop, and she apparently said "yes." The two started dating back in 2015.

Wolfgang broke the news on social media, sharing a photo of the happy couple with Allsop sporting a diamond engagement ring. The caption simply says, "She said yes!! ❤️❤️❤️"

Allsop has quite a different job than Wolfgang. She's a University of Utah alumni and works as a software engineer, according to The Sun. What's extra cute is that the two almost have the same birthday, with Allsop's on March 15 and Wolfgang's on March 16. We wish the happy couple many years of wedded bliss.

Eddie Van Halen was the most influential guitarist of our generation.

Of course, flashy, fleet-fingered guitarists were a dime a dozen in the late ‘70s and ‘80s. Eddie was better than all of them, but he was more than that. A songwriter, a keyboardist, a studio wizard, ¼ of Van Halen’s four-part harmony team and a band leader that was able to guide VH through losing the most distinctive frontman of the ‘80s and led them to four chart-topping albums with Sammy Hagar.

Here, we take on the tough task of ranking their top 30 songs. (It was really, really tough to cut any of the songs on the first six albums from this list.)
