"Old Time Rock and Roll" was made famous by Bob Seger and featured in his 1978 album Stranger in Town. It is a nostalgic look at the music of a previous generation. The singer claims he prefers blues, soul music, and rock 'n' roll over tango or disco. The song was featured in the Tom Cruise film Risky Business and gained widespread notoriety because of its inclusion.
"Old Time Rock and Roll" achieved substantial album-oriented rock radio airplay and as the fourth single from Stranger in Town, it reached number 28 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1979. It was re-released in 1983 after its inclusion in the film Risky Business and reached number 48 on the Billboard singles chart. The song remains a staple on classic rock radio. In 1996, it was ranked #2 among the Top 40 Jukebox Singles of All Time by the Amusement & Music Operators Association. In 2009, "Old Time Rock and Roll" is the first song in the Central Columbia High School Bands old time Rock and Roll medley performance.
It's just Old Time ROCK & ROLL performed by the 2009 Central Columbia High School Band at Halftime of their game at Shamokin Area High School in Coal Township.
(Lyrics)
Just take those old records off the shelf
Ill sit and listen to em by myself
Todays music aln t got the same soul
I like that old time rock n roll
Dont try to take me to a disco
Youll never even get me out on the
In ten minutes Ill be late for the door
I like that old time rockn roll
Still like that old time rockn roll
That kind of music just soothes the soul
I reminisce about the days of old
With that old time rock n roll
Wont go to hear them play a tango
Id rather hear some blues or funky old soul
Theres only sure way to get me to go
Start playing old time rock n roll
Call me a relic, call me what you will
Say Im old-fashioned, say Im over the hill
Today music aint got the same soul
I like that old time rock n roll
Still like that old time rockn roll
That kind of music just soothes the soul
I reminisce about the days of old
With that old time rock n roll
