About the Song
"Jump" is a song recorded by the rock group Van Halen. It is the only single the group released in their career to reach #1(With Dave) on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. It was released in 1984 as the second track on the album 1984, and also reached #1 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, becoming their biggest hit on that chart by staying atop for eight weeks. The song breaks the mold of earlier Van Halen songs, mainly in its rolling synth line (played on an Oberheim OB-Xa), although the song contains the standard Eddie Van Halen guitar solo, which Eddie claims as his favorite solo he ever wrote. The video for "Jump" was directed by David Lee Roth. "Jump" may be Van Halen's most popular and instantly recognizable composition, perhaps because its sound embodies the key aspects of both of the two genres of popular music most associated with the 1980s in America: synth-driven pop and "arena"-style.    Download this sheet!
