Here's the scoop on Song #9: Van Halen's 1984 album was their biggest commercial success. The album introduced more synthesizers than the band had used an any other record. It was the last album to feature David Lee Roth as lead singer, until 2012's A Different Kind of Truth. "Jump" was the biggest hit on the album and was their only #1 charting song ever.
