As far as the tune is concerned, I can't help thinking that it's probably the Most Un-Van Halen Van Halen tune that Ive ever heard but that's just me.![]()

I can kind of understand what your saying... but jump to me, was definitely the most un van halen tune ever. I couldnt stand it then and 27 years later still cant stand it. my opinion...
This song and Jump both kick all kinds of ass when compared to Dancin' in the Streets!!!Rich7620":3vc9xukp said:rrguitar":3vc9xukp said:Gainfreak":3vc9xukp said:EVH is the reason why I play guitar and As a HUGE Van Halen fan I am Glad to see Eddie looking healthy and playing again.

You are shooting yourself in the foot when you make everybody wait so long and then release something that isn't GREAT. If they were putting out albums regularly like they should be, the expectations wouldn't be so high...

Jump was never a favorite of mine Either and to this day I almost always turn the dial when it comes on. It scared me so much that I even remember where I was when I saw/ heard it for teh first time, which was at a friend house on New Years Eve in 1983 rolling into 1984 hahaha!
With that said, I still think Jump fit the VH style because to me it was an EVH guitar riff just done on the Keys. This Riff to me is like the most Vanilla thing ED has done but I'm still jonesing to hear the album![]()

My Feelings exactly, just worded better! I was like WTF is this... the James gang circa 1970 ?James Lugo":3cxhctj8 said:Cool, good to see them at it. Though it doesn't sound like VH to me. The songwriting sounds like OG classic rock, the kind of music they destroyed when VHI hit in '78. Kinda weird.

Jump is when me and Ed parted company. WTF were they thinking? The little intro ditty to Tattoo is pretty lame. But, as the first horse out of the gate, the tune is conservative and catchy. Easy to tab for the minions, typical EVH tone and solo, and Super Dave isn't trying anything too over the top, except for the moonwalking on the video.
Most important though, it is good to see my genre of guys reassembled and making a go at it. Good luck to them....
