Van Halen's Epic Hit: Unleashing the Power of 'Jump' - A Journey into the Ultimate Rock Anthem! 

i will thumbs up every single reaction to Jump and any VH !

Still love Van Halen with David Lee Roth! There's some frontmanship there!

Sammy Hagar is the one associated with the Tequila Brand, not David Lee Roth. David was the original Van Halen frontman. He tried to make a single career, but it didn't take off as he had hoped. Van Halen then took on Sammy Hagar who had been a solo act with some success. "Jump" is a great example of Pop Rock & seemed to give rise to Hair Bands/Hair Metal. "Panama" is a better pure Rock tune, IMHO.

Eddie Van Halen is the Greatest guitar player of all time .❤

David was a martial artist in his spare time and always incorporated high kicks or weapon handling in the act.

They had 1 camera in an empty room. They said they spent more on beer than they spent on the video. They were a fun band.

Though brothers Eddie and Alex Van Halen were born in Holland... their parents immigrated with them to America by boat in 1962 with little money with a piano. Their parents provided some entertainment on the boat to help pay for the fare. They were just young boys at the time. Family landed in NYC and took a train to their new lives in California.... So still much of their growth to be what they became was in America to adulthood.

I saw them in 1984. Was an awesome show. David Lee Roth wore assless chaps. Showing everything God gave him. Lol. Eddie is one of the best guitarists in music history. May R.I.P. 🎸

Awwww. Brings back memories of Junior High in the burbs of Toronto.

I love the lyrics the song talks about being proactive in your life and don't be afraid to jump into because you never know until you try. Very relatable to me. I also love the music as well.

Anybody else remember what they were doing at midnight on New Year's day 1984? I was at a slumber party with my friends waiting for this video to drop on MTV.

Dave is an advanced karate practitioner. Check out those roundhouse kicks!!The androgynous look was big back then.

Nobody is studying the lyrics. It’s all about the music, the energy, the vibe.. And the guy playing the keyboard part and guitar is the one that came up with it (the intro) to answer your question. Long live the king of six strings and ten fingers, Mr. Edward Van Halen. They changed music in 1978 forever. “Mean Street” is next. It’s way more dirty. David Lee Roth is basically rapping through the most bad ass rock grove ever. Sammy Hagar’s biggest hit with VH during the MTV 90’s, was “Right Now”

I'm grateful to be an '80s baby & lived in the times of three iconic classic hit songs titled "Jump". •1983, The Pointer Sisters' "Jump"• •1984, Van Halen's "Jump"• •1992, Kris Kross' "Jump"•

Eruption came out 1978. And it was Eddie and Michael Jackson did the first rock collaboration beat it before run DMC and Aerosmith.

R.I.P Eddie Van Halen... The Heavyweight Champion of Guitar....

They had the funnest videos!! ❤✌️ Gotta love them. Diamond Dave was such a great frontman. Eddie's smile melted a million girls heart's . Sammy Haggar had the tequila.

The beginning of the end for Van Halen. After Hot for Teacher it all went South

When i was in High School lots of girls had posters of David Lee Roth in their lockers and the guys had posters of Eddie Van Halen playing guitar.

Eddie VanHalen ❤

The compliment to this one is “ Panama”….

DLR on his own was phenomenal with a phenomenal band that included Steve Vai, Billy Sheehan and Greg Bissonette.

This tune was hot at the roller rink, back in the day.

Roth was a gymnast in school. All from Pasadena, CA.👍🏻👍🏻❤❤❤❤👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🎤🎤🎤🎸🎸🎸🎸

Cool and the gang open for Van Halen in 2015. Van Halen was big fans of them.

You need to watch Eddie Van Halen's Eruption guitar solo from their without a net tour. It is Eddie at his very greatest. We miss the GOAT'S music now that the greatest guitarist died.

Cabo Wabo is Sammy Hagar's tequila.

I was a teenager when Van Halen exploded . They revolutionized what rock music was. Van Halen is all about Eddie's mind blowing guitar style and other worldly talent. From " Ain't Talkin bout Love" with David Lee to "Best of Both Worlds" and "Summer nights" with Sammy ,it's about the guitar. Both singers were great, but Eddie is the reason to k changed forever, and the reason It's Van Halen!

... little dreamer... best song Van Halen

I LOVE DIAMOND DAVE!!!

It was Sammy Haggar, the guy who came AFTER David Lee Roth, that owned the Tequilla company.

Me and my sister are supposed to go sky diving and when we go I'm gonna have this song playing in my ears with headphones as we jump out the plane

May I recommend Groove Is In the Heart by DeeLite? Bootsy Collins, Maceo Parker, Q-Tip and Lady Miss Kier with MC’s- all in one song!!!! It’s a GROOVE. ❤😊❤

Saw them in concert in Vancouver, 1984.

You might have recognized Eddie's playing in Beat It.

Saw van Halen 3 times 1978 Texas jam Dallas cotton bowl. 1983 Dallas 1984 Dallas

Oh wow! What a great way to start my Sunday morning! David Lee Roth jumping & dancing, Van Halen playing...so many of us had crushes on those guys!!! Thanks for sharing!

Lyrics are nice on Mean Streets

I grew up a Braves fan watching them on TBS but when they weren't on I watched the Cubs on WGN and this was their theme song it was great Mark Grace Ryne Sandberg and all those guys loved it! love baseball and good tunes...

This song isn't deep, but it's positive and fun.

Alex Van Halen is soooo underated as a drummer! It's a damn crime!

Kool and the Gang and Van Halen toured together about a decade ago after David Lee Roth returned to VH.

DLR put Kool and the Gang on tour with Van Halen. Great concert.

David lee Roth is a black belt in martial arts

Hey fellas good reaction. first & foremost RIP Eddie van Halen!! I have always been from the school of ""if it's not broken don't fix it " that said I've always felt like the band was better with him . David Lee Roth is practiced in martial arts.also Eddie is playing the awesome riff in MJ's beat it ❤

One of my favourite songs

Yes y’all I was obsessed 😍

Great showmanship

Sammy Hagar not David lee Roth Did Cabo wabo... Named after the van Halen song Originally

BANGER 🔥🔥🔥 love Ur reaction guys ❤️😍👍

Went through a lot of batteries on the boom box with this group.

You guys gotta see Eddie Van Halen Live play Eruption guitar solo

checkin in

DLR was a martial artist. You can see it in his moves. Eddie is considered one of the best guitarists, if not THE best guitarist, of his generation.

Kool and gang opened up for van Halen 2012 tour David Lee Roth loved them and asked them to open their tour fans gave Kool standing ovation all night on tour

The 80's bands new about live music, no tech to adjust the voice or sound or both.Talent is something that is hard to come by in true form. I don't know but is quiet nostalgic watching David showing his martial arts skills.

Definitely would love to hear more Van Halen. Hot for Teacher is a classic 80s tune. Jamie's Crying is a great earlier tune. Great reaction!

Hagar launched the Cabo Wabo Tequila line in 1996. SAMMY HAGAR Says “It Was The Craziest Thing In His Life” When He Sold Cabo Wabo Tequila For $100 Million. He now owns a collection of spirit brands including Santo Spirits, Sammy's Beach Bar Rum and Sammy's Beach Bar Cocktail Co.

I met David Lee in 1990 and he is a very nice guy and very humble. I think it was all for the stage. I had a poster on my wall when I was 12-13 yrs. Wish I still had it.❤❤❤❤❤❤

Must have been fun being with your brother in the same band...of course talking about Eddie Van Halen and Alex Van Halen, the drummer.

Here is one for yall. Gimme Shelter. The rolling stones in Amsterdam live. One of there greatest performances

GR8 video folks.. RIP EDDIE

Saw them in concert 4 times, Jump was a great tour! TY for a great reaction!

I used to think DLR said he had his back against the wrecking machine, lol, but he actually says record machine. I think he's talking about the record label

I loved David Lee Roth in Van Halen! He was the best front man!

Loving what you doing!!! Sweet song & entertainer video.

This song was a new direction for VH

I suggest Van Halen Unchained.

I remember having a huge crush on Tom. I was only a teenager, but Tom was 🔥 hot. It was great seeing him this way once again. My whole family loved his show. Enjoy your journey. ❤

Hey some more 70’s Rock Bands you might not be familiar with but are worth listening too, assuming you haven’t listened to them, would be; The Obvious choice would be Pink Floyd. They were a blues based Rock Band Pink Floyd. Probably their biggest hit…and they had a lot of them…was Comfortably Numb. Wish You Were Here is a great tune, as is Money. My all time favorite Floyd song is Brain Damage/Eclipse. A note on Pink Floyd. Their albums were thematic in nature with all the songs revolving around a central theme so it’s kind of like to appreciate one of their songs you really have to listen to the entire album that the song is on. Their Dark Side of The Moon album is still one of the best selling albums of all times and it came out in 1974, I believe. Another is by Country Rock Legends Lynyrd Skynyrd. I’d be shocked if you haven’t heard Sweet Home Alabama. The song isn’t really about Alabama but was a rebuttal to Neil Young’s popular song Southern Man which was a criticism of segregation and Jim Crow in the South which offended Skynyrd as not everyone in the South was a racist segregationist (several members of Skynyrd were Black Men). It was the band’s way of telling Neil Young that let he who is without sin cast the first stone. Skynyrds best song was an accidental hit. They wrote a song that had a long guitar riff in it just as a way to give the lead singer a break to rest his vocal chords in the middle of the show. They called the song Freebird. The riff sounds like a single madman going to town on a guitar solo the first time you hear it. It’s actually a three guitarist riff where the guitarist are playing in harmony. Best guitar jam ever recorded. Last but not least is their song Give Me Three steps which is a hilarious song about getting in trouble because of a woman that most guys can relate too. One last 70’s band I’d like to suggest is another blues based Rock Band called Foghat. Two of their best songs are Slow Ride and Fool For The City. The first time I tried weed Slow Ride was playing on the stereo. I couldn’t have picked a better song to play for the first time getting high. Love you reviews man. Keep them coming.

David was known for snow. And he never made a dime from it

I'll wait is a good song also

Let's get rocking with Doobie Brother's, "China Grove!" 🎸 🥁

Very good you guys haven't heard this for years.

Post VH David Lee Roth = Yankee Rose

David Lee Roth is a black belt in several martial arts, hence the very limber man.

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Flashback

DLR loves the camera.

Even Sammy Hagar got into the liquor game, followed the exact game plan you described. Strange indeed. DLR actually got into skin care for tattoos.

Not to bad for his contribution in the song beat it Eddie van halen r.i.p

Mixed martial arts- that’s how David Lee Roth did all that- fun fact. ❤

I didnt David but I like this song. I Love Sammy H❤ as the lead singer

Sammy Hagar had Cabo Wabo number two front man for the best guitar player ever RIP KING EDWARD if you want to see a longer guitar solo watch ERUPTION video by Van Halen

Eddie played the solo on Michael Jackson's "Beat It."

Yankee Rose by DLR

If not already mentioned below ..Eddie did guitar solo on MJ "Beat it"

It never ceases to amaze me how lazy and unprofessional some filmmakers are. They get shooters and editors that don't play, so they have no idea what sound comes from what instrument. That means they're often showing us something boring when they could be showing us the most interesting thing going on. In this, except for the solo, Eddie's on keys the whole song. But instead the director has him air-guitaring like someone who knows nothing about music. Roth even makes fun of it by putting 'piano hands' into the shot of Eddie playing guitar. In this case, they didn't even dust off the keyboard before shooting, which amazes me because this band was already big when this was shot. They deserved a far more professionally produced video. This was high-school quality.

It is interesting that you said “they should have given Eddie a longer guitar solo in the song” - bet Dave agreed. Part of the reason for their break-up of the band is that Eddie wanted to add more synthesizer music into the songs, but Dave wanted to keep it rock ‘n’ roll not add new wave 80s synthesizer music… my guess is Eddie shortened his guitar solo so he play more synthesizer - just a guess…

❤😊

Fellas, U guys need to react to Van Halen's Panama Music Video.

This is Van Halen as a polished gem. Lovely to look at. But when Van Halen produced "Dance The Night Away" the guitar was crunchy, and the band was edgy, a little dangerous. I remember thinking, what are they going to do next??

I don't want to sound grotesque or clueless here and I hope I didn't misunderstand when one of you remembered that the brothers were Dutch, so I thought it was important to note. Yes, the two brothers were born in Holland, but when Eddie was 7 years old, his parents moved to Holland and were very poor. Certainly, then, their parents tried to naturalize them as Americans. Furthermore, the Band was not formed in the USA and the other members are Americans. Eddie, at an awards ceremony, made a point of remembering that he was born in the Netherlands, but fought to achieve success with his band in the USA and then around the world, saying in the end that he is proof that anything is possible.

Yeah he could definitely play a guitar

Van Halen had 4 Billboard #1 albums. Only the 4 albums with Sammy went to # 1.

Glam rock is like Bowie,

Sammy was the tequila guy

There's a good slower version of this by Aztec Camera.

EDDIE MASTER OF GUITAR🎸 DAVID LEE ROTH BEST FRONTMAN\SINGER🎤 ALEX VAN HALEN AWESOME DRUMMER!!!! MARK ANTHONY. BASSIST EXTRAORDINAIRE!!❤❤❤❤

I am surprised Eddie allowed his guitar solo to be filmed, he routinely turned his back to the audience so no rock star wanna be could steal his riffs
