From the summer of '81 lol Ray Parker Jr. produced this jam and you can hear his funky guitar all over it.

"I'm gonna shake my body tonight
move my hips from left to right
whoaahhhhh.....oooohhhh!
I'm gonna shake my body tonight
I'm gonna shake it down,down"

headbang

As someone mentioned above,this is the perfect "getting-ready-to-go-out" song.In the verses,Cheryl keeps saying "I'm gettin ready"...she seems really enthusiastic about the party she's going to.Back in the day,we always had songs like this.Fun,party songs with a GROOVE!
