You should have a camera in there and film it every time it drops. Different nights for months, then string it together in a video of all the different crowds.
I love how you weren't ready for that drop. None of us were man, none of us were. Even now, that intro summons our souls, and it hits each time like the first time.
Yeah the Irish embraced hip hop earlier than just about any white group. There's a saying, "The Irish are the blacks of Europe, Dubliners are the blacks of Ireland). Yes a lot of Irish are as racist as any group, but they've also been treated as badly as any group in Europe for centuries, so it makes sense that they embraced the hard core sound.
Back in the day when you would hear this in the club, not one person would be standing still. It's one of the ultimate party song and goes hard as hell too.
100% truth you said Stoogler, I am a 1978 boy and the 1990s was the cream of music evolution. The whole decade brought out genres after genres, in high school in the UK I would mix with the rap crew,brit pop crew grunge crew dance crew it was crazy but so cool.... ❤2ALL StaySafe ✌👍🤜🏽
it takes real courage to experience new music and be open to it in front of people. thanks for being brave and bridging gaps. we are all americans loving music here.
Don't tell him about house of pain n cypress hill in the same show! He might not be able to handle that excitement! Him watching jump around is enough for him today! 😂
It is so cool seeing young people hearing iconic songs for the first time and enjoying them!! As for me, I've been jamming to this song for 31 years. I'm old enough to remember nightclubs and bars BANNING Jump Around where I lived. The reason for this was because people would "Jump Around" and spill alcohol all over other party goers or knock other people down... Which would cause fights, stabbings, and gun play 😬 So they banned the song 😢 But not just Jump Around... "Insane In The Brain" by Cypress Hill also got banned in clubs for the same reason. Those two songs got people PUMPED UP!!!!
As a 46 year old I LOVE SEEING the young generation VIBIN OUT TO what we listened to! ❤ Most younger folks don't realize WE SAW EVERY 1ST THERE WAS AND NOW WILL BE IN HIP HOP!!❤❤❤ WE AS HUMAN BEINGS HAD NEVER seen , heard anything like HIP HOP!!! I WAS THERE AND I LOVED IT! Check out the rap Duo 3RD BASS POP GOES THE WEASEL & THE GAS FACE!! Shout out MC SERCH and PETE NICE and DJ RICHIE RICH!!! ALSO EIGHTBALL & MJG PIMP IN MY RHYME
House of Pain was part of Soul Assassins, as well as Cypress Hill. Everlast was thinking about givin up on hip hop and the song Jump Around was givin to Cypress Hill. They really weren't feelin it and they passed it onto Everlast and his group House of Pain used it and it blew up, the rest is history
The Beastie Boys were white and were making a name for themselves in NYC in the early days of rap. Don’t worry about thinking an artist is a different color or doesn’t look like you thought they would, I think it’s human nature to form a picture in your head of who you’re hearing.
I saw House of Pain in Honolulu with Cypress Hill and Naughty By Nature in around the same time. Naughty By Nature was by far the best of the groups but they were all awesome. I never saw an official Funkdoobiest concert but they were in Honolulu and showed up to a private party to battle with local Hawaii rappers. Both sides were good battle rappers and there was such an awesome vibe in the room that night.
Shamrocks and shinnanguns great album. This was definitely the song a DJ played in the bars for close to 2 decades to get the bar hopping and in a good mood for the night.
Oh wow, your reaction was fantastic 🤩You are definately not the only one surprised when they see they video 😱😲😂I bought this "album/cd " when it came out in 1992 and have loved it ever since. It was also the 1st song the DJ played at my Wedding reception. You gotta move when this tune comes on.
To hear and realize for the first time who House of Pain is, is dope. But wait until you hear the lead rapper in this song with Santana as Everlast on the track, Put Your Lights On.
Matt was a friend of theirs. Everlast “whitey ford” is the main dude. HOP only had 3 albums. The first was dope, with production mainly from DJ Muggs from Cypress Hill. They were all friends. Everlast went on to make great albums and a lot of acoustic guitar stuff, with a little bit of rhymes and beats. Still doing it today, after he almost died years ago. Definitely check out his catalog. Good shite!
I was a young DJ playing parties for high school and collage kids when this song dropped. We didn't have a lot of music video exposure at that point, so we didn't know if they were white or black or what either, but it didn't matter what color they were - because we just loved it! (no dis-respect)
BTW it came out around 1992. There was also a pretty good white rapper group that came out around then called wait for it.... young black teenagers 😆. The track is called Tap the bottle you should check it out.
when they were touring with Cypress Hill, they booked at a college stadium, they checked the foundation after and found major cracks running through the whole building
Back in the day, there was this hiphop/d&b/breaks magazine called "Knowledge", which encompassed history and knowledge about the hip hop community and it's influences. The hip hop community was all about knowing their roots and the history of their influences. It seems nowadays that a lot of this mentality has disappeared except for in the most underground hiphop communities and I find it so refreshing that the younger generations find an interest in the knowledge of the past of hiphop. Looking into it now, the magazine still exsists as Kmag, but has diverted to be mainly d&b focused.
I was 1yo when this song came out, but I heard it all throughout my childhood in the 90s and early 00s. Such a huge hit of nostalgia every time I hear it, and seeing your reaction and pure enjoyment brought a smile to my face. Love this song ❤️
My 15 year old twin grandbabies jam to this song when we are chillin in my ride, heads bobbin in the back seat😅 Indigenous grandma, OG veteran. We are still here✊💯⚡❣
They were shopping this song and Ruffhouse wanted it but house of pain didn’t like the deal so they kept shopping. In the meantime Ruffhouse put out “jump” by Kris’s Kross to try to squash jump around. Didn’t work. That’s why at the end he says “this is dedicated to Joe the biter Nicolo” he was a Ruffhouse exec
Brings the memories back. Was in a packed bar in East London, really drunk. This came on and everyone was jumping. Only thing is, we slipped on spilt beer and fell over and broke my cousins knee LOL. Those were the good ol days 🙂
good honest reaction....glad you enjoyed this old school jam from my era growing up....the video clip itself is awsome well put together and the rhymes were insanely good,,,,some awsome music from that era....thanks for the reaction, i will sub to your channel.
the song came out in 91 or early 92 cause it was my senior yr in high school. Back then cds came in a box (little fact for all the young ppl), the rapper is Everlast, went on to have beef with Em.... well we all know what happens with that😃 Em did 2 diss tracks, pretty much ended it
@@Jayizzo007 Yep! I remember jamming out to this in Junior high on my Walkman. I don’t know why it seems so strange now that I had this on tape, maybe because CD’s became so popular soon after, but I remember specifically having this tape and the Offspring on tape and memorizing all the lyrics on the readout. Good times
Just like my surprise finding out the lead singer of Sevendust was black..lol. back in the day, saw them on a "metal and ink" tour. He came out shirtless, braids and belted out the song Black... Made my hair stand on end. It was awesome!
Yes, that was like it was. I was about almost 14 at that time and was in love. He was my pretend boyfriend. We only had a TV a short time and it was black and white then. Everyone was in front of the TV to see the Ed Sullivan show. Elvis music made you get up and scream, dance, cry. Love love your reactions to Elvis. Please continue this journey. You will be amazed how diversified Elvis music is.

Not really related, but one of my favorite hard rock songs that I think you should check out is Adrenaline by Nine Lashes. There is only one other TH-camr I've seen that has done this song which is a shame because it's a banger. Either way, I enjoy the channel and you earned a sub today!
Im 31, this makes me feel old, but what a banger this is everytime it drops! Funny coz what made me love it is when it was played in the party scene in the legendary ms doubtfire🔥🔥🔥🤭 Rip robin williams. My auntys 60th was in may and this came on towards the end and i started doing the dance that robin was doing on the table in ms doubtfire and everyone started following 🤣🤣🔥🔥💯
@@brianito7779😂😂😂 I was about to comment the same thing! I was 19 in 1992 when this song came out. Now I’m 50! 😬 Although, psychologically, I’m only about 31. 🤣
Best part of the House of Pain mythology is that they're from Boston, or even Irish-American. They're from LA and good friends with Cypress Hill etc. I think the label (Tommy Boy) was like, "well, you're white, the beat samples a bagpipe. fuck it." Funny as fuck to see people from Boston, or even Ireland, claim this group when they're from Woodland Hills in LA county. But, fuck it, it's a BANGER.
Everlast was in Ice T's Rhyme Syndicate in the 80's. He had cred prior to House of Pain. If you haven't checked out La Coka Nostra, that shit is fire too.
You gotta be effing kidding me! For the last thirty odd years I legit thought these clowns were Irish-Americans from Boston. I feel violated and vulnerable right now... And yet, like you say: Still a mf banger
1992 was the best year in the history of the world for music. You could have months of content just reacting to all of the amazing albums that dropped that year.
Fun Fact: if you were a teen in the 90’s, you still know the lyrics by heart
OF COURSE!!!
oh yeah.....lol...
True fact
I know every word to this, Bone Thugs, The Fugees, and 2Pac. We don’t need to discuss the Spice Girls or Jewel…. Lol.
can confirm.
Play this song in any bar with people over 40, and you will see them all jump, without fail!

I'm a metalhead, but that doesn't matter because this song is classic fire 🔥.
Same here. There's 'classics' and there's CLASSICS.
Me too
It crosses all genres worldwide.
In the 90s House of Pain and Cypress Hill were as much metal as they were hip hop
I love when the younger generation realizes..."Its THAT song" 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤙🏼
Back in the day when you would hear this in the club, not one person would be standing still. It's one of the ultimate party song and goes hard as hell too.
The singer for House of Pain went solo under his name Everlast and did that song called "What it's Like". Great song.
He also does an acoustic version of jump around as Everlast
Love it!@@kevinlove6336
He went by Everlast in House of Pain.
@@johnjohnmcclane1818 Oh nice! I never looked up the individual member names of H.O.P.
Another one of the group went on to be DJ Lethal and joined Limp Bizkit.
This is one of those that, when I hear a reactor say, "I've never heard this," I say, "Just wait."
What a time to be alive. The absolute best years of my life. 90-95. Music just isn’t the same these days.
100% truth you said Stoogler, I am a 1978 boy and the 1990s was the cream of music evolution. The whole decade brought out genres after genres, in high school in the UK I would mix with the rap crew,brit pop crew grunge crew dance crew it was crazy but so cool....

Man I was like 11 when this came out wandering around like a boston gangster in rural colorado with this is my sony sports walkman lol.
About 20 years ago was in a bar in Boston at around 1:00 AM and this came on; was insane!
Funny thing is when they find out ITs actually Everlast
Same! Love seeing it!
everlast, danny "boy" o'conner, and dj lethal. fuckin legends.
Man, there are brothers of all kinds.

46 here, too (47 next week) and can absolutely confirm the vibe check here.
im also 46 and i feel the same......you speak 100% truth 🔥🔥🔥🔥
47 here👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🎯
some tracks NEVER get old my guy .... we knew how to bump it back then
80's and 90's was awesome . i'm glad i was part of that era

DJ Muggs offered it to Ice Cube after Cypress Hill turned it down too.
I'm 65, and still love this song!😮
Nothing to make me feel more like a childless grandfather than watching this.
House of Pain was legit.
Proud Irish BOYS!
Except for the DJ. He's Latvian...😉
Never at a club that didn't go mental when this was played back in the day...
Brooklyn in the 90s…and yes…it comes on today….the place goes crazy!
Its an instant mood to positive shifter wherever your at 😊
I was in high school when this came out. What a great era the early 90’s were 🔥
It would take your lifetime to uncover all the cool music good luck 🍀👍🏾
Those bagpipes take you out every time!!! I work in Hospitality and the dance floor is packed at wedding receptions when this comes on.
Imagine making a song thats enjoyed for generations. I mean many do but few are so universally liked
My nephew (RIP Eric) used to say thiscwas the Irish Nation Anthem😂
Back then it was lol. RIP to your nephew, he was right.
The University of Wisconsin also uses it as an anthem, and the students literally jump to it at sports events and commencement.
Hey, I’m 70 and this is in my playlist! Love it.
Im from new york and this song is still referred to as irish national anthem for irish gen x'ers
All of house of pain’s albums are straight 🔥
The Beastie Boys were white and were making a name for themselves in NYC in the early days of rap. Don’t worry about thinking an artist is a different color or doesn’t look like you thought they would, I think it’s human nature to form a picture in your head of who you’re hearing.
'Galvanize' would have been another suggestion, we were dam lucky in the 80s & 90s.........

Love his face when he realised what he was hearing 🫡
Saw them live at the Barrowlands, Glasgow in 1993 with Cyrpess Hill and Funkdoobiest. They killed it. Stole the show.

This dropped in 1992. I was 20 years old and I bought the 12 inch single on vinyl. I still have it and it's still in good shape.
Just to clarify, this song was released in 1992, not in the 80’s.
Tell him👍🏿
First time i ever heard this was at Nottinghill Carnival in London over a big sound system, the entire street erupted. One of my favorite memories.
To hear and realize for the first time who House of Pain is, is dope.
But wait until you hear the lead rapper in this song with Santana as Everlast on the track, Put Your Lights On.
I would add .........
'INFORMER' by Snow !!
We were lucky back then.
Kind regards Legends
Ahhh yes, this came out in 92', my sophomore year this bumped at many of our football games! ❤️🔥
The venue in Camden back in the day where they played with Rage Against the machine and I forget the other groups was awesome.
The whole album is great. "Top o' the mornin' to ya" is sick. I was in high school when this dropped. This song still gets people moving.
Hey,,,, this is Boston Massachusetts at it's finest,,,,,, and it's still the BEST
They're not from boston thou. LA

This a 1990’s anthem. It is that song.
and it was worldwide - even in my children parties in germany we jumped around (OFCOUUUUURSE WE DID) ;)
I was in the 7th grade when this song game out and can recite it to this very day some 33 years later.
