Yesterday... when I voted on this important game:

@TQR (our beloved host and spiritual guide for so many) was touched, and he got sad after reading my "controversial" votes.

Today... I dedicate to you my votes... I want to make you happy, @TQR.

Tomorrow I'll be myself again.

Thank you @MariNisia

Yes. We must make @TQRhappy. He has been so sad lately.

 

 Fucking hell, you lovely pair of legends 

 

Please, it'd be too out of character for me not to be in a strop about something or other!

Jump Around is iconic.

Jump by Van Halen is… well, ubiquitous.

Jump by Kris Kross is just some bratty kid being propped up by management and a record company.  But I like it anyway.  

 

Bratty kids aside, the production with that genius sampling (as pointed to by DoltonMoney earlier) is absolutely class, and no 90s bangers playlist is complete without it. 31 years old and it still absolutely slaps!

Jump is surely memorable; I associate it with 90s gym class like I do the Macarena though. It played during our jump rope exercises.

Nobody else is bothered about Arrested Development so with a heavy heart I'll let the game take its course there and join the Kris Kross fight.

Sorry, Jump fans, I don't like it.

Actually there's nothing there I like apart from the top two.  Obviously KOHD is great but meh, it's a cover.

I wish I could be as indifferent. The original is great, but Axl Rose's constipated titty-twister kind of singing is so tasteless and out of place.
