"Jump"
Song
B-side"History"

"Jump" is the fourth and final single from Madonna's album, Confessions on a Dance Floor.[1][2] The song was written by Madonna, Joe Henry and Stuart Price. "Jump" was released in the US on November 7 2006[3] and on November 6 2006[4] in the UK. The song was also released on iTunes in the US on October 24 2006.

Song information

The song was featured in the motion picture The Devil Wears Prada along with another Madonna song, "Vogue". "Jump", unlike "Vogue", was not included on the soundtrack of the film when it was released.

The single has not been released in France or Japan; Japan being ironic due to the strong attention the other three singles from Confessions on a Dance Floor received and also because the music video was shot there. Madonna performed "Jump" on her 2006 Confessions Tour.

Music video

The music video was shot in Tokyo, Japan on September 19 2006 while Madonna was on the Japanese leg of her Confessions Tour. Directed by Jonas Åkerlund, Madonna is seen wearing a short, platinum blonde wig and in a sequence filmed on a sound stage, as her dancers perform parkour through the streets of Tokyo and on a fake Chevrolet Camaro. Many of the various signs and billboards on the storefronts and buildings have been altered to read "Madonna" and "Jump" in Japanese.

"Jump" premiered on AOL, then VH1 in the US (but never on MTV in the US) and on Channel 4 in the UK, all on October 4, 2006. As of November 17, the video became available on iTunes.

An official promo-only remix video of "Jump (Jacques Lu Cont Remix Edit)" was released by Warner Bros. Records on May 19, 2007 through Madonna's online fanclub, Icon.

Madonna is said to be cosplaying Mello from the Japanese anime Death Note.

"Jump" won the Best Dance Music Video Award at the International Dance Music Awards in 2007.

Charts

Chart performance

In the USA, "Jump" peaked on the Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks chart at number 21. It has also peaked at #1 on all 3 of the US Dance Charts (Dance Club Play, Dance Single Sales, and Dance Radio Airplay), along with the Billboard Single Sales chart. "Jump" is also Madonna's 37th #1 single on the Billboard Dance Club Play chart. Despite high hopes for the single (given the heavy promotion in The Devil Wears Prada film trailer), on the Billboard Hot 100, it failed to show on the chart. The single stalled at #105.

In the UK, "Jump" became Madonna's fourth successive Top 10 hit from the Confessions on a Dancefloor album, peaking at number 9, a year to the week since "Hung Up" had topped the chart. This chart position was considerably good due to the fact that many stores in the UK were not stocking the single. In Australia, the song debuted in the top 30 in November. In Italy "Jump" become her third number 1 single from "Confessions on a Dancefloor", remaining in the top 10 for 14 consecutives weeks. The single also did considerably well in Africa, reaching #1 on the South African charts, where it remained for 2 weeks following heavy promotion of the movie, "The Devil Wears Prada".
