 ron (11513) | http://www.esquire.com/entertainment/music/news/a39372/van-halen-jump-remake-donald-trump/ Of Course There’s an Awful Cover of Van Halen’s ‘Jump’ Called ‘Trump’ These solos are really, really yooge. Watch Video —> http://www.facebook.com/rightonband/videos/10153682859907311/ Imagine, just for a second, what it would be like if Weird Al Yankovic was suddenly completely unfunny and politically motivated. Imagine an alternate reality where the Kidz Bop team started making lifeless versions of songs for your sad, culture-deprived parents. What if Van Halen lost every shred of musical talent, and, against the band’s known left-leaning political ideology, decided to endorse Donald Trump with a version of “Jump” called “Trump”? It would be this song. Right On Band performed the above song at a Trump rally in Norfolk, Virgnia, on Saturday. Though the song includes such lyrics as “The guy’s a recking machine / negotiator supreme / can’t you see what I mean?” Right On Band clarifies on its Facebook that the band is neither “RED” nor “BLUE.” “Wherever there is a Party, that’s where we’ll be,” they promise. Oh, good. ronQuote |

| ron (11513) | http://www.pnj.com/story/opinion/2016/01/16/marlette-trump-show/78894926/ Following Donald Trump’s rally of American greatness at the Pensacola Bay Center featuring the bizarre, nationalistic, Kim Jong Un-ish musical performance of the Freedom Girls, the News Journal obtained an exclusive fictional copy of this list of other talent acts that the Trump Campaign has booked for future events. You ain’t seen nothin’ yet, folks: … David Lee Roth — Mr. Trump has the pulse of America. He says what people are thinking. And one day he said, “What the hell happened to David Lee Roth?!” Turns out, the former Van Halen front man was looking for employment when Mr. Trump put him on the payroll to be the campaign’s most high-powered hype man. “I get up, and nothing gets me down! You got it tough. I’ve seen the toughest all around!” What lyrics better articulate the struggle of white, lower-middle-class American men than the opening lines of that 1984 mega hit? There’s just one twist to the chorus, of course: “Might as well Trump! Trump! Go ahead and Trump!” Like Mr. Trump, Mr. Roth is an American icon whose genius is universally recognized everywhere from Walmarts in Daytona Beach to Walmarts in Peoria, Ill. He’s the official soundtrack of any Trump party because “making America great again” starts with bringing back David Lee Roth. ronQuote |
