Re: VH1 40 Worst Metal Songs
Jump by Van Halen should have been illegal.
I have a feeling I've already mentioned this on this thread somewhere, but that was ages ago!

Nah, like Europe's Final Countdwon it's a great 'pop-metal' tune. It's just that you (and everybody else on the planet Earth) have heard it far, far too many times. It's these cretins like VH-1, MTV and the Top-40 radio stations: they kill good songs by playing them 15 times a day for months. After that you will never, ever want to hear those tracks again.

It might be a good song, but it should have a guitar solo. That´s one of the most out of place guitar solos ever to be put into a song. It´s like, he thought:"Uh, now I played so much keyboards on this I´ve forgot to add a guitar solo, now I´ve got to do it REALLY fast" no matter if it fits the tune at all.

I know what you're getting at, but it's still a crap song. I don't mind Final Countdown, and I still turn the radio up when 1987's Here I Go Again comes on. Even Eye of the Tiger makes me grin.
But Jump? Van Halen should have took their own advice after recording this. Maybe this is why I prefer Sammy to Dave. And those keyboards!! Argh! Du du duuu du du du, du du duuu du du du!
Now I've got it in my head! Save me!!

I hope nobody starts hating me after I write this...(Apostate assumes a very small voice): even though the song "Jump" is basically lame, I LOVE the (Purple-ish) keyboard solo, and I think Eddie SMOKED on the guitar solo..(Apostate assumes an even smaller voice) sorry! forgive!
