Album: Built For Speed
Label: EMI America
Genre: Rockabilly
Lyrics: @ Sing365
My BFF and I have started this thing where we are all about finding new skills. In recent weeks we have started taking East Coast Swing dance lessons. We meet every Wednesday night so in honor of our lesson tonight I'm enjoying some Rockabilly.
I should mention that we don't actually listen/dance to Rockabilly at our lessons. It's mostly classic 1950's Rock & Roll. haha
"Rock This Town" was originally released in 1981 on the Stray Cats first(and self titled), album but that album was only released in the UK. It went all the way to #9 on both the UK Singles Chart and the Billboard Hot 100.
This song is kind of a guilty pleasure for me. If asked, I wouldn't immediately own up to liking it. It's big on the cheese scale. I think this is a song that more girls like than guys. That always says something.
ETA: We did in fact dance to this very song tonight at out lesson :-)
