"Jump (For My Love)" was the opening track (and third single) of the Pointer Sisters' 1983 album, Break Out.
Released prior to the 1984 Summer Olympics games, the song's video featured footage of athletes competing in track and field events. The song was the second of four Billboard Hot 100 top 10 singles in a row for the sisters in 1984; it peaked at #3 in July. It also appeared on Billboard's Adult Contemporary chart and reached the Top 10 in the UK, peaking at number six.
The original title given to the song simply was "Jump". The title was modified to "Jump (For My Love)" prior to its release to avoid confusion with the Van Halen song "Jump", which was released earlier the same year.
The song netted the group a Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal in 1985.
The song appeared in an aerobics workout scene in the 1985 television film "California Girls" starring Robby Benson.
The song was featured in a gay-themed movie in 2002, The Trip, an epic gay romance that traces the relationship between two men from their initial meeting in 1973 until 1984. In 2003, this recording was used in the movie Love Actually. In November 2008, the song can be heard in the Season 4 episode of "Everybody Hates Chris", titled "Everybody Hates James".

Still one of the sexiest videos of the 80's. Sorry, the new gals don't have anything on these. So-soul, from the 60's and current.
