Glenn, you didn't pick Right Now. What's the world coming to. J/K bro.
Jump had more energy and it looked funner too. VH at full strength, IMO.

Well, if you want to get technical, "Right Now" IS the better video...
But I'd rather watch "Jump."
"Jump" is endlessly cool.Everybody's smiling (boy did they have US snowed or what?
) and it's just them. No storyline, no plot, just FUN.
That's where it's at, in my opinion.

This is an apples and oranges question for
me. I think both are great in their own ways. "Jump" was simple, fun and vintage Van Halen. "Right Now" sent out a message (or many messages). I haven't seen a video like that since. Probably cuz MTV doesn't play many videos. If I had a choice, I'd pick
"Jump" because I was an impressionable
teenager when it came out.

I gotta go with Right Now.
IMO Right Now has a pretty strong message, while Jump is just a goofy video. Just my opinion!

And that's why I go with "Jump" - I don't want VH to be a message band - got enough of those. Now if "Right Now" was the same concept, but with all funny "Right Nows" (Right Now Eddie's thinking "that Rick Cerone guy who sings that "More Than Words" song sounds pretty good"), then I'd probably pick it. But "Jump" is what it is - a fun band seemingly having fun!

Yeah that video is fantastic. Chris has been so under the radar for the last few decades, great to see him getting some recognition and attention via this.
