Rock With You (Frankie's Favorite Club Mix)

This song makes me smile every time it comes up on the playlist because it's so damn cool. I see this song as driving music. Picture it if you will, driving down the highway as fast as the law allows (or faster for you lead foots out there), this song pumping from your soundsystem and you just singing along to Rock With You by Michael Jackson.

This is the remix though, not the Off The Wall version but a remix by the great Fankie Knuckles, the preeminent house music DJ. He breathes new life and soul into what was already a damn good song. This remix is off Michael's They Don't Care About Us EP which came out in 1996. It's arranged immaculately and it never losses steam. Flat out, this song rocks.

I'm still stunned behind Michael's death but I am forever grateful for him and the music he left behind. It is here for us to enjoy over and over again and thanks to Frankie, this song stays in the rotation. Enjoy!
