Hi, I'm Tyne Stevenson.

And I'm Elena Morgan.

And this is Song versus Song.

And this week we are taking you back to the 80s.

The most overexposed decade of all time.

Probably not more than the 60s.

But we're, we are doing Van Halen's Jump versus white snakes here I go again number one songs in

1984 and 1987 respectively is that the reason why you put these two together I don't know like

I just I feel like they have a very unique blend of synthesizers and hard rock.

I have some thoughts.

There are arguments to be made in favor of this,

but I said to you before the recording that I think that this should have been Panama versus round and round.

No, I don't... You can shake your head all you want.

But I bet you the listeners are going to agree with me.

I feel like this is a good matchup.

I've always wanted to do this one.

These are like top tier 80s songs, top tier hair metal songs.

I feel like when I think of 1987, I think of White Snake.

And when I think of 1984, I think of Van Halen,

partially because the album it is from is titled 1984.

Yes, and that Whitesnake album, which is just a self-titled album, I believe, was very nearly

called 1987.
