David Lee Roth, singer does martial arts and wanted to bring it into this video. Eddie Van Halen, the guitarist is one of the best of all time. Michael Anthony plays bass. Alex Van Halen is on the drums. He is Eddie's brother. The band Van Halen is named after Eddie and Alex. And they are one of the best bands ever! They were my absolute favorite in high school! Play all the Van Halen records! Imagine it's 1979 1980? Disco is all the rage. You see this intriguing record with a band name of Van Halen on the cover so you pick it up. You drop the needle and "Running with the Devil" starts. Changed my life. You definitely need to listen to running with a devil. Warning, this is a rabbit hole! Enjoy the journey! RIP Eddie. We miss you!❤

[@GrowingDownUnder]

my favourite van halen song is "right now"

[@gaelicfleur-de-lis6219]

My bf boyfriend is a Hagar fan. I think Sammy is the better musician but Roth was the better front man. Michael Anthony is an epic bassist but got screwed over (Alex's fault really) and Alex is a so so drummer. As a percussionist, his lead in for Hot for Teacher is just incredible! Still dislike him though. Eddie was the true talent in the band. Eruption and Cathedral is just another level of epic. Balance wasn't great and we don't acknowledge Van Halen III. But their debut album, 5150 and especially 1984 are the definition of 80s rock! Grateful to be born in 89 so at least I can say I was born in the same decade as the greatest album ever (1984)!!!! 😍

[@boblester8641]

Always here it at nba games

[@SuperstarQ76]

lets not forget that eddie and michael also took turns on the keyboard over the years. and eddie was the lead singer the first 4 years. but as above, david lee roth was the front man they needed to really break into the mainstream

[@fredtello]

oh man you interrupted Eddie Van Halen's guitar solo you can never interrupt guitar solos

[@diydad7704]

"What did i miss?" The 80s, man!

[@kennyjones6369]

This guy missed a lot

[@RBwhenyousee]

Do Bucket Head!!​@@kennyjones6369

[@fredwerza3478]

This guy has no idea how fun the 80's were

[@carahoglund5266]

"Where have I heard this song?" Literally everywhere, man. Literally everywhere. Movies, TV shows, stadiums, games, etc.

[@bryanguilford5807]

True, Un random stores etc..

[@hgianos65]

Super Station WGN blasted it all over the country before and after every Chicago Cubs games

[@fredwerza3478]

The song has been played at countless sporting events --- mostly in the 90's and early 2000's

[@hopeklemann1]

Eddie had the sweetest smile I've ever seen 💔

[@CaddyJim]

*David Lee Roth* the lead singer wasn't a cheerleader but does *kenjutsu, kenpō & Brazilian jiu-jitsu*

[@fredwerza3478]

It's crazy how this dude thinks DLR learned those kicks from "cheerleading" --- you need many years of karate and jiu-jitsu to get that good

[@dominysynclair]

...and Shaolin kung fu as a kid.

[@cindyhall5995]

RIP Eddie you took your cute smile with you.

[@lydmarl.475]

He sure did!!

[@kimzwolinski9919]

Eddie and Alex Van Halen were born in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Family moved to California when Eddie was 7or 8 years old. Dad was a jazz musician. Eddie is always in the conversation for best guitarist.

[@fredwerza3478]

Eddie is not "in the conversation" --- he simply is the best rock guitarist who ever lived and it's not even debatable

[@abrahampresence8297]

The info i have is that Eddie was born in Indonesia. Indonesian mother and Dutch father. van Halen is a dutch surname. They later moved to the Netherlands and then the US.

[@cjonesufc]

Also, Eddie Van Halen randomly recorded the guitar solo on Michael Jackson’s “Beat It” and rearranged the song into how it ended up being released. The solo is listed among the greatest ever.

[@randywissler9923]

Lets not forget Steve Lukather, another elite guitarist!! He played all the rest of the guitar parts on that song!!

[@beckyboop3517]

I didn't know that, thanks for the info 👍

[@patriciacloix71]

c'était pas au hasard c'est le grand Michael Jackson qui a fait appel à lui pour le solo car Michael choisissais les meilleurs comme Slash également étant lui même le plus grand artiste complet interplanétaire

[@SC-gp7kt]

The Thriller album is basically Toto featuring Michael Jackson!

[@ecufile4095]

​@@randywissler9923 Nope Eddie did the hole song. Gr

[@tedjohnson2091]

David Lee Roth is the singer. Eddie Van Halen is the guitarist. This song was off the 1984 album. They ended up kicking DLR out of the band and picking up Sammy Hagar as singer. Watch Eddie Van Halen Eruption (live) if you want to see how great of a guitarist he was. (RIP).

[@nabilak1]

just to add to your comment, Alex Van Halen is the brother and drummer of the band. BP, you definitely need to react to Eruption. Eddie Van Halen is a guitar God, may he Rest In Peace.

[@88Elguapo]

Of course! haha. Here I was thinking I'd be the first person to recommend Eruption(live) haha

[@trishc3099]

The drummer is Alex Van Halen. Eddie is his brother.

[@richardwest6358]

"Never heard of Van Halen" - LIAR "Never heard of David Lee Rorh" - LIAR "Never heard of Eddie Van Halen" - LIAR

[@srh1467]

Eddie also played the keyboard for Van Halen in addition to being a guitar god.

[@BigEZSlotz]

Eddie was a child prodigy on the piano but fell in love with the guitar. His tapping technique set him apart form other guitarist. GOAT.

[@kimmince1955]

Goat for sure

[@IronRaspberry]

“Jump” is a very popular sporting song. It is a staple at Detroit Pistons NBA games whenever a jump ball is called. Other sports teams have used this song over the years as well - such as the Chicago Cubs. Its also been used in TV and film.

[@jspade1973]

I saw Black Sabbath in concert in 1979. The band opening for them was a no named band called Van Halen. Fell in love with this band since. Shit I’m old.

[@dancarter482]

Yep - _BLEW_ BS off every stage, went from zero's to heroes overnight. Ruined things for UFO as well. Micheal Shenker tried to fight EVH backstage for ruining the tour 'cause HE wanted to be the guitar god and couldn't compete!

[@ajruther67]

I had a photo somewhere of them on stage in 1975 in my little old city of Paramount CA. Have no idea what happened to it.

[@kevinmalone2218]

I saw a no name band called Van Halen open for The Doobie Brothers. Been a fan ever since.

[@rafaelvillaronga9507]

Saw that tour in ludwigshaufen Germany. They dominated sabbath.......

[@h.albertmayorga5522]

No, no, you are wise, cool, and you wouldn’t wanna go back to your 20’s - none of us would😅

[@ingobordewick6480]

The band is Van Halen because it was founded by the two brothers Eddie (one of the greatest guitarists ever) and Alex the drummer. The original singer is David Lee Roth, he was later replaced. Listen to the live guitar-solo "Eruption" by Eddie van Halen live in 1986 and you will know why he is one of the greatest who ever picked up a guitar...

[@denisevans213]

Seconded, for Eruption!! 🤯

[@quintondees4501]

Eddie Van Halen and Alex Van Halen are brothers, Alex is the drummer, the band is named for them, the lead singer here is "diamond" David Lee Roth

[@sherryb5369]

The band was originally named Mammoth, but it was already taken by another band. David Lee Roth had the idea to rename the band Van Halen for Alex.

[@ingobordewick6480]

Thanks! I didn't know that! @@sherryb5369

[@Giggirl]

This song was huge & still makes me smile ❤️🎶

[@MommaBird52]

Eddie was married to actress Valerie Bertinelli for 26 years and they had one son Wolfgang (Wolfie) who was bassist for Van Halen at the time of his death. RIP ELVH ❤

[@hubrisnaut]

Being 60 it blows my mind people have not heard this. The whole band rocks.

[@Wrangzilla]

Yeah, but you have to appreciate people taking the time to appreciate this music thats now 40 years old. That is the equivalent to you listening to music that came out in 1944, back in 1984. Crazy to think about that....

[@hubrisnaut]

@@Wrangzilla I agree, I know a lot of "kids" in their 20s and 30s that love the older stuff. I was working with a young lady in her early 20s and "Magic Carpet Ride" came on the radio. She sang along with the entire song. She knew every word. When I said I was surprised she knew the lyrics, she look at me quizzically and said, "Doesn't everyone?". She was a character.

[@yambo59]

Same here im soon to be 65 I graduated high school in 77 and we had SO much superb music, talented singer/somgwriter duos, ROCk BANDS etc, I hated it when great music left mainstream radio to be replaced by (c)rap, hip hop and that constant subwoofer bass crap that somehow passes for talent and music - UGH-!!!

[@gregorygant4242]

Dude ,the leader singer did martial arts that's why he could do all those crazy moves ! Classic 80's synth rock . Legendary song !!!

[@traceyraffle6675]

You nailed it...Eddie Van Halen is on guitar and the the band is named for him and his brother Alex (on drums).

[@adammetz7063]

My dude I just found your channel maybe a month or so ago, love your reactions. I just wanna say just for the record, IT'S COOL THAT YOU DON'T "DO YOUR HOMEWORK" lol it makes the reaction 100% real and AUTHENTIC!!

[@sabredesatanas518]

PLEASE! More Van Halen! One of the BEST concerts I ever got to see! And Eddie Van Halen was the KING of the guitar!

[@FavoriteMovieDate]

Smash hit!!!!! We jumped and screamed along with this song in sheer euphoria. David Lee Roth was always outrageous but this shows everyone at their best. So fun and infectious but the music is still so strong and fresh. I’m really impressed with the drums on this one today for some reason. The musicians in Van Halen were superb.

[@jwarrior852]

The ballad stuff is known to us as the Van Hagar Era. I love both because I love all genres and styles. Van Halen with Diamond David Lee Roth is definitely party music. Eddie had an extremely good (and unique) tone, which sets him apart and puts him up there with the GOATS. DLR was trained in martial arts but yes, flamboyant af. This band was copied and pasted so much it killed almost killed rock in the 80's. My suggestion for your next VH -Panama or Hot for Teacher

[@uv777gr]

One of the biggest songs of the 80s, always makes you feel good! This probably was bumping in your house when you were a kid, it was that huge. EVH was a household name.

[@mcm0324]

To be 14 years old again and in 9th grade!!! The beginning of the hair bands! I loved VanHalen!! The 80s were the best to be teenagers! #80skids

[@barbaramatthews4735]

I was 12 in 1980. I turned 21 in 1989. I remember the 80s. It was some of the best music. MTV used to be an awesome channel. I miss music videos.

[@bandmaidfanATL]

Van Halen is Dutch. The 2 Bros are from Holland until they moved to SoCal as kids. Eddie VH is on guitar and Alex VH is on drums.

[@mattmyers6916]

Two words on Eddie Van Halen and the guitar GOAT.... Eruption solo. Also, the synth intro has been the walk out music to dozens of sports teams through the years... or a prequel to the walk out music.

[@punkydoodle4774]

The guitarist in the yellow jacket and the drummer are brothers. Eddie is the guitarist and Alex is the drummer.. Their surname is Van Halen and that's what they named their band. The name is Dutch, by the way.

[@MikiraAliason]

This brings me back to high-school and rollerskating to this song... and yes I jumped in rollerskates every time they sang jump! Yes, this is 80's.

[@russellspencer7962]

"Hot for Teacher" should be your next reaction

[@fortyeth]

Hi Pegasus, for me this song has been around forever and will always stand out as a classic..thank you Van Halen. And as a keyboard player that has played this track live a few times during my career I can tell you it has an irresistible effect on the crowd they just have to get up and move. And finally...yes that synth solo is a great part to show off playing! Keep up the great work.

[@deachristiancatlady5435]

EVH named his son Wolfgang....he was just awesome and he was married to the sweetheart of all time Valerie!!!!!!!

[@TammyM36]

DLR was so cool and hot. By far the most fit person in rock n roll history. Or definitely in top 3!

[@dreamweaver8913]

I saw Van Halen when David Lee Roth was with them, when they toured after this album came out. Pure entertainment on the stage, also pure talent! R.I.P. Eddie

[@cjonesufc]

King Edward Van Halen came out playing guitar like this and changed how people looked at the instrument forever. It’s generally held that the only other guitar player who ever made such a big impact on guitar music was Jimi Hendrix. You should check out “Hot For Teacher”.

[@randal_gibbons]

Google Les Paul.

[@RUHDD4HVN]

@@randal_gibbons We can add Tom Scholz too....... bingo!

[@dorisg.3]

😂I can't believe that someone doesn't know this song!!? It's on at every party or anywhere else...in America, unbelievable! 😂😮

[@davewhitlow2984]

Eddie also played the keyboard intro. One of my fav concerts was February 14, 1983 at the Charlotte Coliseum. They were dressed just about like this... I was about 15' from the stage

[@evabyrum3327]

The guitarist is Eddie Van Halen (RIP) and his brother is on drums. The singer is David Lee Roth. He does all kinds of martial arts and is pretty badass. David Went and did his own music and when he left, they hired Sammy Hagar as their singer. Both singers were awesome in this band.

[@michigan57]

1984 Chicago Cubs introduction song, it played every game. In person and on TV. OH the memories

[@TheHopebane]

after being in the 82nd airborne Div. it took me along time to be able to enjoy this song again due to hearing it everyday over the loud speakers during PT same goes for running with the devil

[@EldenTraub-km7es]

I was 12 years old and rocking watching THE REAL MTV

[@NikesZ28]

That intro has been everywhere!! Sports, movies, radio, tv... you name it... its iconic!!

[@khelatar]

Calling the band "Van Halen" was actually the singer's idea. David Lee Roth thought it would sound unusual and kind of mysterious, something like "Santana".

[@x0539p]

David Lee Roth, lead singer, is now a paramedic. Eddie Van Halen has sadly passed away. They sure bring back memories of the 80’s & I had a blast.

[@wilbill9]

I grew up with this music but watching your video gives me new meaning of what I'm hearing

[@jenniferfoster1692]

Eddie and his brother, Alex, who's on drums, were born in Holland and the family moed to the US when Eddie was around 6 and Alex was a teen. Eddie was bullied for not speaking English & he said only the Balck kids were nice to him. They had moved to Pasadena, California. Yes, Eddie is one of the best guitarists and changed rock with their first album in '78. All the rockers in the 80s were doing a version of his guitar playing, like Jimi Hendrix in the 60s influenced everyone onward. They have a deep catalogue. This whole 1984 album is awesome as well as their first album, called Van Halen..and their other albums, too, lol.

[@SnoopOlliB]

Eddie and Alex van Halen came with their parents in the 50s from the netherlands. Their father was a professional musician, too. A rumor around "Jump" is, that Eddie composed it on a piano, not guitar.

[@Renkk17]

The sound was probably heard at the beginning of sporting events, like hockey!

[@teresacartwright5406]

Eddie Van Halen died in 2020 (may he rest in peace). He was acclaimed as one of the best guitarists. The guitar playing in this song is iconic. The lead singer was David Lee Roth.

[@shelleystiles9236]

One of our fav song to skate to back in the 80s lol

[@Denise-pn1tj]

The Van Halen Brothers were born in Amsterdam. Their mother was Indonesian. I swear Eddie and his Wife Valerie Bertinelli looked like brother and sister when they were young. They have a son who also plays guitar. His name is Wolfgang Van Halen. Is mom calls him Wolfie for short. It was sad that he died in 2020 and it just doesn’t seem right. He’s the worlds best guitar player ever bar none. The guitar he’s playing is basically his Frankenstein. He ended up creating a zone guitars and he does techniques that nobody did at that time, but people have painstakingly tried to copy him since. David Lee Roth never played any instruments, but he did have his own band after this he left Van Halen in 1985. It had his old bed for a while. After David Lee Roth left another really great singer came on the scene in Sammy Hagar and he’s had great success with many different bands. Chicken foot Montrose Band named after him Sammy Hagar. He was known as the red rocker. He is definitely worth checking out in every form or fashion that he’s ever done music in. I seen him in concert with Van Halen and I’ve listen to his music for many years he started out the 70s. Montros, I believe was his first band at least the one where he first started making note. I’m glad you’re playing the stuff for my day. Best one off the album in my opinion was just about tied with jump but I have a reason that it’s more my favorite and that would be Panama.

[@dannyworten5876]

They introduce the players coming out on the court before pro basketball games to this song. And the singer was a marshal artist hence the kicks and jumps

[@Boss-hw2ve]

Spring Break - Fort Lauderdale, FLA - 1984. This song played for the entire, drunken stupor of a weekend!!

[@crisbarber5404]

Eddie Van Halen is on guitar. His brother Alex is on drums. They created the band Van Halen in California. Amazing albums in the 70’s and 80’s. For a phenomenal display of guitar talent check out Van Halen’s song Eruption in its live performance. Eddie tears it up!

[@bonsai67]

Thanks for proudly wearing our National Flag on your chest. RED, WHITE AND BLUE All The Way!! Greetings from The Netherlands. You know, on the left of Germany.

[@GatheringtheMagic1984]

Check out "Ain't Talkin' About Love" from their first album. "Jamie's Cryin'", "Little Dreamer", "Panama".... so many hits. Welcome to 80s rock!!! Thanks for the reaction!

[@xScooterAZx]

I love David Lee! Hw used to hang outside with us girls when they played Gazzarri's On The Strip,on Sunset.

[@janejohnson7777]

This was the first song I heard on a new thing called a Walkman in 1981!

[@msabccbscnnoanfoxnews]

2:55 if you remember back in the 80s, they have this thing called the radio and there was like 5 - 6 popular stations that’s it. And they played this song like eight times and day for 10 years or so I’m pretty certain that is when you heard it just like the rest of us

[@davesubers3415]

Went to a concert in Fresno in the 80’s what a show they had the speakers that David Lee Roth jumped on one after another to the top of the venue.

[@heathenchild7437]

If you've seen the movie "Ready Player One", this is in it, and was used for at least one of the movie trailers. The brown haired guy in the yellow animal print jacket is Eddie Van Halen, and that guitar is his absolutely iconic guitar. He was married to Valerie Bertinelli, and their son Wolfgang has also been a band member since 2007. They've had a few lead singers, the most well known are David Lee Roth and Sammy Hagar; this one is Roth, who was known for the flamboyant style. If you want to check out more on just Eddie himself, have a look at his Eruption Guitar Solo (Live in New Haven 1986) here on YT.

[@avoncalling7886]

Definitely check out Panama :). When I went skydiving I had it video’d and they used this song for the backing track. Friggin incredible!

[@brandonio_granger]

You could literally listen to every song in the David Lee Roth era,you'll love all of them.

[@BeachyBran]

Favorite song of theirs… Love Walks In

[@elishagabriell6529]

David Lee Roth- lead singer and jumper. Eddie Van Halen on lead guitar with the really cute smile! His brother - the Drummer. Those 2 started the band and brought in the other 2 to fill out the band.

[@jughtful]

i had their Album Van Halen 5150 on cassette as a kid & it rocked

[@JavierPerez-eq2sm]

“Jump” was used recently in the intro to the film Ready Player One

[@chuckwhite3176]

I was walking back to my dorm room in Spring 1984 when I heard this one for the 1st time, blasting out of someone's window at 100+ dB. It was a great time to be alive!

[@xar226]

This song shows up all over, including a lot of sports. If you want another Van Halen tune that also shows up in sports -- "Right Now." Among other things, it was the song used to introduce the Chicago Bulls back when Jordan was still around. Not sure if they still use it. It's my personal favorite Van Halen song.

[@ajruther67]

Van Halen - Ain't Talkin' Bout Love 1978 It's from their first album! There is no official video because MTV didn't air until 1981.

[@matthamilton1321]

That sound is an Oberheim OB-Xa synthesizer. A hugely massive sounding keyboard free m the 80s. The band is named after Eddie, and his brother Alexx, the drummer.

[@michaelmays9292]

David Lee Roth was a blackbelt in martial arts. Vanhalen are two brothers

[@lisazaccardimeunier8378]

This is 1984. It’s even the name of the album.I was ten years old. I got a boom box and this cassette tape for Christmas.

[@jenniferfoster1692]

Eddie's in the yellow on guitar and keys. He was trained early on classical piano and could play very well. The whole family was musical. David Lee Roth, the singer, also wrote all the lyrics for the band. Hes' got a bunch of martial arts belts & is obviously very fit. Eddie wrote all the music.

[@emmasurf8109]

i bet Jump has been used in some commercial and that's where you remember it. It's been long enough that the good songs get commercialized. Eddie Can Taken who sadly passed away was guitar and his brother Alex was drummer and can't forget David Lee Roth

[@Amber-mv8wz]

The song has been used in probably a half dozen movies over the years. Most notably it was playing during the opening of Ready Player One since you mentioned the opening of a movie, I bet that's where you heard it. I've also heard bits of it played during basketball games for obvious reasons.

[@lawrenceadkins2924]

Arnel Pineda, the lead singer of Journey does a lot of these moves during guitar solos of concerts and was probably motivated by this music video.

[@amyguthrie8119]

Check out Hot For Teacher next! Great video! Super fun song… Eddie and Alex are amazing!

[@coryola5663]

Commercials ... you hear lots of these 60s-2010s music in Commercials. ... It's amazing how many movies also use iconic music in their soundtracks!
