en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jump_(Madonna_song)Easily my favorite song from Madonna's Confessions on a Dance Floor album. It was the 4th single. WBR said they were going to actively promote it to Top 40 radio, but it went nowhere. Jump did chart on Billboard's BUBBLING UNDER THE HOT 100 chart. It went to #105 for 1 week. Jump went to #21 on Billboard's AC chart. Madonna fans hate the Jump video:

Definitely one of her better singles during that decade. I love the Pet Shop Boys influences and it sounds great in context with the album.

My favourite single from COADF remains Hung Up, but this is definitely one of her best songs in recent years. Video was pretty shoddy... but then she was on tour. At least she bothered to make one.

This was another favorite from the album. The "West End Girls" styled production was so perfect. I appreciated the fact that a proper extended version of this was released on the single. All of the singles from COADF would have benefited from that sort of treatment. In this particular case, it was spectacular.

Probably my favourite single from this era. And I actually really liked the video  . |

Had this been released by a younger Madonna, in her commercial heyday, it would have been another smash, for sure. One of my favorite singles from her since 2000.
"Jump" was on the cusp of cracking Billboard's Adult Top 40 chart.

The singles from that album were very popular here, so I heard this one on the radio. Not as much as 'Hung Up' or 'Sorry' though. At the time this was the one I preferred because it wasn't as overplayed as the other two. Now it's 'Hung Up', but 'Jump' is enjoyable nonetheless.

Very catchy song. I found it extremely odd that the label pushed this towards AC. At least it did something in the clubs, but none of the remixes were all that stellar. Should have been much bigger.

One of my least favorite singles by her. I still like it, though.

Except for the differences in lyrics and melody, and the music as a whole, you're absolutely correct. ;)
I much enjoyed the version performed on the Confessions Tour. So glad she put that extended version on the maxi single.

This is one of her all time best songs. it's got a great message, but it doesn't quite climax the way i want it to, which is bonus points for MDNA. All the songs climax at some point. Jump kinda falls flat in that regard. I still love it tho. |

If this was released a few earlier, I think it would have debuted near the bottom of the Hot 100, as I remember an AC station in NYC giving this some love and over 1 million impressions from that station alone. But then the whole Holiday Songs thing started and that station flipped to Holiday music, killing any momentum.

Confessions had a flawless string of singles. This is no exception. Still sounds like a smash to me, so catchy.

Not my favorite single from Confessions, but then again they’re all brilliant. Perhaps my favorite run of singles from her, tbh. “Jump” remains a lot of fun and the production is killer.

I wanted this to be the third single over GT, which I hated. I'm glad it eventually got a go, but still think it should have followed Sorry, and would have been significantly bigger worldwide if it had.
