Don't get me wrong, I love Jump but I like Right Now more.
It just does something you know
Maybe it's subliminal messages in the video

[Dan Halen]

I've always liked Jump a lot but Right Now is my favorite of the two.

I prefer Right Now by a landslide over Jump. Jump had a good solo, and is a good song, but I've never been a sucker for synthesizer in rock music. I really liked the piano in Right Now, the solo was awesome, and Mike did a damn good job of holding down the rhythm.

To be perfectly honest, I skip Jump a lot these days. It's the only Van Halen song people play in public, and for many it's the only Van Halen song they've known. I just think it's been far overplayed.

Both are awesome tracks, but if I had to pick, I would choose Right Now. Ed's solo just flat out fuckin' rocks [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

Jump by far for me. I never really liked Right Now.

Jump!

I worked for a pharmaceutical company, and they launched a new product for blood pressure... and they knocked off Right Now..., redid the words to fit the med, got a Sammy-sound-a-like to sing... ruined the song for me... [img]graemlins/yell.gif[/img]

When I saw VH play "Jump" in 1984, I thought the roof was going to blow off the arena when it started You couldn't even hear the song until it "kicked in" after the drum roll.

when I heard "Right Now" live it got a modest response at the start of it.

"Jump" is just a cooler song IMO

[Haaseracer]

Right Now wore me out... (still a good song)
Jump never bores me

[THE HULKAMANIAC BROTHER]

for the hulkamaniac brother i have to say jump over right now any day of the week. both are great songs but it is jump that made van halen a household word. VH-1 has been playing davind lee roth and van halen videos lately and i got to see the jump video again. What power the song had. Right now does have deeper lyrics but it is not a party song or a rock athem like Jump is. Jump may be the david era's biggest song. i tihnk we could use more rock like jump on the radio today and in our lives. i am giving my vote to jump as one of the best songs that was on 1984 album and is currently being played on vh-1

[Unchained Wolfie]

Right Now is better imo

[Sammy Who?]
