The tempo of the song panama is 4/4 beats per bar, the genre of the son is classed as fast rock.
Aspects: The way that Eddie Van Halen plays the guitar is very technicle, because the different techniques that eddie used are mostly based around Jimi Hendrix, Chuckberry and even Eddie's own techniues that he invented due to him not taking formal guitar lessons when he was younger. An example of Eddie's guitar technique is called a scoop. Other techniques that he used are also Eric Clapton licks just sped up into a rock tempo.
Difference: The way that this video is different from other rock videos is the way the band or artist performs during the performance, they dress as if they were crazy.
Promotion: It promotes the band by the way they play, it is very different from other rock bands they play what the audience wants to hear.
Wire work: I think the wire work was used to somehow make the music video more 5150 (crazy) looking, and to also make the viewer/listener more excited and more urged to see Van Halen.This was a new technique for the band (Bon Jovi done a similar thing in the song "Livin on a prayer".
Clothing: The way that Van Halen's bass player Michael Anthony dresses is kind of out of fasion and crazy looking, this would sell the band out so fans would get more excited, the second reason to the way michael dresses is that it is so wacky and off the wall, the style that people never dressed in, he makes the music video more exciting and electrifiying. In the song Jump Anthony dresses in the same style but in the song jump the clothes that he incredably wears the same clothes with its similaritys, they were nearly the same clothes that Anthony wears as in the song Panama.
