    Story Behind the Song
    Vocals by Tim Goldman - the original Fork Handle and much missed! (Salade, Tim!) This was the historic first Fork Handles self-penned creation amongst those early covers, a collector's item amongst Fork Handle fans. Written rapidly while waiting for a file to download over a slow modem connection (as you do). Not their greatest hit ever, it has to be said, but a taste of what was to come, and full marks for enthusiasm!
    Listen out for the delicious diminished 7th chords on "rockin' beat", and for the screaming effect Ben gets with harmonics for "rockin' rhythm". We hadn't mastered syncing with the drum machine in those early days, but we kept the take because we wanted a rough-edged feel. (!)

    Lyrics
    When you’re feeling good
    And the neighbourhood
    Want to rock the night away
    Start it nice and slow
    Let your feelings go
    And your body start to sway:

    Hear the rockin’ rhythm
    Hear the rockin’ beat
    That’s an OK way to party
    Feel the party heat!

    OK, party, that’s an OK way to party
    OK, party, that’s a party rock and roll
    OK, party, that’s an OK way to party
    OK, party, that’s a party rock and roll

    Hear the rockin’ rhythm
    Hear the rockin’ beat
    That’s an OK way to party
    Feel the party heat!

    Guitar solo

    When you’re feeling good
    And the neighbourhood
    Want to rock the night away
    Start it nice and slow
    Let your feelings go
    And your body start to sway:

    Hear the rockin’ rhythm
    Hear the rockin’ beat
    That’s an OK way to party
    Feel the party heat!

    That’s the way to move your body
    That’s the way to lose control
    That’s an OK way to have a party

    Come on! OK, party!
    Now that’s an OK way to have a party -
    Right on!
