Van Halen - Jump [Best version ever!]

[@finscreenname]

@Brandon Near Sammy had a couple good albums with VH (I preferred him solo) and you are right they matured. If it was with Sammy or they would have done it on their own is a good question. It was pretty obvious that Ed would have. You also have to keep in mind, OU812 would not have sold in the time Women and Children First came out (1980). They were a young, raw band that partied all night played all day. Not middle aged married men who were raising families. It's like comparing a baseball player from the 1950's to today's specialized athlete. It's a different time and different place. I do know one thing. Without Dave's PA equipment back in the day VH would have never made it to a stage.

Could not have said it better! There is nothing like the original video. I can watch it over and over and Dave's vocal and video performance are legendary in that video. This song makes me instantly, incredibly, deliriously ridiculously happy. It's so positive and high energy, everyone has a good part. Sammy did a good job here he really did. He didn't try to copy anything Dave did. But he did bring the energy. Looks like a fun fun show.
