For some reason Senor Six and I have been singing this song on and off for months now. Guess it's got some staying power.

If anyone is into Metro Area or Morgan Geist's solo stuff I suggest looking up the track "Time Warp" under Eddy Grant's alias Coach House Rhythm Section. Classic classic non cheesy disco that was proto House

Cap'N and I used to freak out to this song when we were younger.

I always thought the "Ho!" in the chorus was funny as shit for some reason.

We gonna rock down to Electric Avenue
And then we'll take it higher...HO!

It's in some tv commercial right now, isn't it? I recall hearing this more than I would ever wish to lately.

We can always count on Rads to come through.
















I do love how a very political song can be such a beloved party tune.
