"'''Jump Around'''" is a song by American [[hip hop music|hip hop]] group [[House of Pain]], produced by [[DJ Muggs]] of [[Cypress Hill]], who has also covered the song, and was released in May 1992 by [[Tommy Boy Records|Tommy Boy]] and [[XL Recordings|XL]] as the first single from their debut album, ''[[House of Pain (album)|House of Pain]]'' (1992). The song is popular among [[dancehall]] [[disc jockey|DJs]] and is widely regarded in the United Kingdom as a club classic. Its music video was filmed in [[New York City]], featuring footage from the 1992 [[Saint Patrick's Day]] [[New York City St. Patrick's Day Parade|parade]].

The song became a hit, reaching number three in the United States. The song features [[Universal Pictures|Universal]], [[Warner Bros. Pictures|Warner Bros.]], [[The Walt Disney Company|Disney]] and [[Paramount Pictures|Paramount]] movies from different franchises. A 1993 re-release of the song in the United Kingdom, where the initial release had been a minor hit, peaked at number eight. "Jump Around" was ranked at position 580 on ''[[Q (magazine)|Q Magazine]]''{{'}}s "1001 Best Songs Ever",<ref name="Q">{{Cite web|url=https://www.muzieklijstjes.nl/Q1001bestsongsever.htm|title=Q - 1001 best songs ever (2003)|website=www.muzieklijstjes.nl}}</ref> number 24 on [[VH1]]'s "100 Greatest Songs of the 90s",<ref name=":1">{{Cite web | url = http://blog.vh1.com/2007-12-13/top-100-songs-of-the-90s/ | title = 100 Greatest Songs of the '90s | archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20120214035830/http://blog.vh1.com/2007-12-13/top-100-songs-of-the-90s |archive-date= February 14, 2012 |url-status= dead }}</ref> number 66 on VH1's "100 Greatest Songs of Hip Hop", number 325 on ''[[Blender (magazine)|Blender]]''{{'}}s "500 Greatest Songs Since You Were Born" and number 47 on ''[[NME]]''{{'}}s "100 Best Songs of the 1990s".

==Background==
DJ Muggs has stated that he originally produced the beat for Cypress Hill, but rapper B-Real couldn’t come up with the lyrics. It was subsequently offered to [[Ice Cube]], who refused it, before finally being taken and used by House of Pain.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2019/feb/12/how-we-made-cypress-hill-insane-in-the-brain-muggs-sen-dog|title=How we made Cypress Hill's Insane in the Brain|last=Simpson|first=Interviews by Dave|date=February 12, 2019|work=The Guardian|access-date=April 23, 2019|issn=0261-3077}}</ref> The lyric "if your girl steps up, I'm smackin the ho'" brought accusations of misogyny in 2014.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Kirst |first=Sean |date=2014-12-04 |title='Jump Around': In too many sports arenas, an anthem celebrates violence against women |url=https://www.syracuse.com/kirst/2014/12/post_584.htm |work=syracuse.com}}</ref>

===Samples===
The song features a distinctive [[French horn|horn]] [[fanfare]] intro, sampled from [[Bob & Earl|Bob & Earl's]] 1963 track "[[Harlem Shuffle]]". The song also samples "[[Popeye the Hitchhiker]]" by [[Chubby Checker]], but it is best known for a high-pitched squealing sound that appears at the beginning of almost every bar—66 times in the course of the recording. 

==== Controversy ====
The origin of the squeal has been the subject of debate. In a 2006 interview with ''[[Seattle Weekly]]'', [[Divine Styler]]'s article mentions sampling the same squeal 'Jump Around' used for his single "Ain't Sayin' Nothin",<ref name="Caramanica 2006">{{cite web | last=Caramanica | first=Jon | title=Word Power | website=Seattle Weekly | date=2006-10-09 | url=https://www.seattleweekly.com/music/word-power/ | access-date=2024-01-03}}</ref> ''[[Complex Networks|Complex]]'' also noted this potential connection with "Ain't Sayin' Nothin" in 2012.<ref name="Cantor 2012">{{cite web | last=Cantor | first=Paul | title=The 100 Best Hip-Hop One-Hit Wonders | website=Complex | date=2012-05-15 | url=https://www.complex.com/music/a/paul-cantor/the-100-best-hip-hop-one-hit-wonders | access-date=2024-01-03}}</ref>

American blogger [[Anil Dash]] and musician [[Questlove]] of hip-hop band [[The Roots]] have insisted on [[Prince (musician)|Prince's]] "[[Gett Off]]" as the source, while [[WhoSampled]] had listed [[Junior Walker and the All Stars]]' "Shoot Your Shot" as the source.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web|date=May 16, 2016|title=Prince's 'Gett Off' and the 24-year mystery of a hip-hop sample|url=https://www.newsweek.com/princes-gett-and-24-year-mystery-hip-hop-sample-456856|access-date=December 27, 2020|website=Newsweek|language=en}}</ref> In 2016, a ''[[Newsweek]]'' reader performed a [[spectrogram]] analysis, which revealed that the sample more closely matched "Shoot Your Shot", and House of Pain member [[Everlast (musician)|Everlast]] himself told Questlove that it was a horn making the squeal and not Prince.

For his part, DJ Muggs said the sample came from neither Prince nor Junior Walker,<ref>{{cite web |date=February 24, 2012 |title=House of Pain Look Back at 20 Years of 'Jump Around' |url=https://www.spin.com/2012/02/house-pain-look-back-20-years-jump-around/ |website=SPIN}}</ref> likely as a way to avoid licensing fees.<ref name="ft 2023">{{cite web | title=Jump Around — how House of Pain amped up the Irishness for this party anthem | website=ig.ft.com | date=2023-12-28 | url=https://ig.ft.com/life-of-a-song/jump-around.html | access-date=2024-01-03}}</ref> In 2020, Everlast stated that the sample came from Divine Styler's "Ain't Sayin' Nothin", which samples "Shoot Your Shot".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JF2eC0RW2aY |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211213/JF2eC0RW2aY |archive-date=December 13, 2021 |url-status=live|title=Everlast On The Hidden Backstory Of House Of Pain's Mega-Hit 'Jump Around' &#124; People's Party Clip|via=www.youtube.com}}{{cbignore}}</ref>

==Music video==
The accompanying music video for "Jump Around" was filmed during the 1992 [[New York City]] [[Saint Patrick's Day]] [[New York City St. Patrick's Day Parade|parade]]. Portions were shot on the parade route as well as in [[Central Park]] and [[Old Town Bar and Restaurant]].
