Respect the Wind

Respect the Wind

Respect the Wind is a lengthy keyboard and electric guitar instrumental track written and performed by Edward and Alex Van Halen. It is played over the end credits of the 1996 hit film "Twister" and is Alex Van Halen's only-ever credit independent of the band Van Halen.

It was the second of two songs contributed to Twister by Eddie Van Halen besides the recording of Humans Being with the other 3 members of Van Halen. It was recorded following Ed's dissatisfaction with the song Humans Being and also marks one of the straws that led to lead singer Sammy Hagar's supposed termination from the band.
