I really felt the groove in the start of the song! A couple less than smooth transitions but it was pretty solid. The groove kinda got lost in the second half of the song during the solos but you got it back on track for the outro. All in all, good work.
The Knack split up in 1981 just a few weeks after the release of Round Trip, which failed to achieve critical success although it reached number 93 in the Billboard 200.[4] Serious Fun represented a reunion after around a decade of separation. The album represented a more hard rock sound for the band, reminiscent of the Raspberries. Serious Fun also failed to achieve either commercial or critical success.[5] However, it resulted in the popular single "Rocket O' Love," which reached #9 in Billboard's Mainstream Rock Chart.[1] The band created a rarely seen music video for the song.[6] "One Day at a Time" was intended to be the second single from the album, but the label decided to stop promoting the album at the time of the intended release.[7] According to Knack guitarist Berton Averre, an A&R man at the label thought "One Day at a Time" would be a hit but felt it would be preferable for the lead single to be a harder rock song, and so "Rocket O' Love" was released as the lead single.[8] And apparently when the time came to release a second single, the label had lost interest in the band, and so buried the intended release of "One Day at a Time."[8]

A deluxe CD reissue complete with 24-bit digital remastering, bonus tracks, and detailed liner notes was released in 2002 by parent company Virgin Records. It includes a cover of the Martha & the Vandellas song "Nowhere to Run" done in the Knack's power pop style.[5] The official website for the band states that: "The Knack's fourth studio album is serious fun! Some of the best music the band ever made."[9]
The songs "I Want Love," "Rocket O' Love" and "One Day at a Time" were incorporated into the greatest hits album The Retrospective: The Best of the Knack, which was released by Capitol Records on November 16, 1992.[10] "Rocket O' Love" was also included in the greatest hits album Very Best of the Knack, released by Rhino Records on May 19, 1998.[11]
Musician panned the album, stating that "Anyone who believes the musical legacy of the '70s is nothing to be ashamed of might want to reconsider after hearing this one."[17] Critic Stewart Mason of AllMusic gave a mixed review. He remarked that even though "the songs are neat little packages of appropriately crunchy guitar hooks and harmonies", still "Serious Fun doesn't manage to be quite as much fun as it could be."[1] Critic William Ruhlmann, also with AllMusic, commented that "it's hard to imagine anyone other than die-hard Knack fans expressing any interest in it."[5] Walter Allread panned the album as uninspired, stating that it consisted of "12 new tunes that succeed only at making you want to hear 'My Sharona' again," but also conceded that "One Day at a Time" might have some radio success.[18] The Rolling Stone Album Guide called the album "lumbering arena-rock."[16]
I loved "Get The Knack" when I was a kid... and still do... the second record was pushed out too quick and they forgot to write songs, the single - "Baby Talk Dirty" - was kind of an inverted rewrite of "My Sharona." I bought the third record for $1 in a cut out bin a couple of years after it came out, still have it somewhere... I only remember one cool country-ish ballad ("Pay The Devil?") and an embarrassing song called "Art War" or something... I heard a later CD in the 90s but wasn't focused on it...
Now, Joe Jackson... I'm a huge fan and have almost every record he's put out (the rock and pop music ones, anyway). He reunited the original Joe Jackson Band in 2006 and put out another record with them titled "Volume 4," did a world tour and then put out a live record from that called "Afterlife." His last couple of records have been great... I saw him live in 2014 or so... I have tickets to see him in June. He's using a guitarist, again (Teddy Kumpel from NYC)... I learned every guitar and bass part on "Look Sharp" and "I'm The Man" and "Beat Crazy" when I was a kid. Great guitar voicings, similar to Steely Dan (piano players, I guess). I sang and played bass in a band in college that did "Got The Time," which was always a blast to play...,
Interview with Teddy Kumpel from Joe Jackson's band.
yeah this song is about a guy wanting a younger girl, and jackin his yank thinking about her...then they end up getting together. i dont know about other girls, but if a guy wrote a song like that about me...i would be compeletly flattered
The riff of "My Sharona" was written by the band's guitarist, Berton Averre, years before he joined The Knack. He had played it and a drum groove for Doug Fieger, the group's lead singer and rhythm guitarist, who loved it and promised to make it a song. However, Fieger, with no lyric ideas to add, was unsure what to do with it beyond that.Sharona was Sharona Alperin. Sharona herself appears on the picture sleeve for the single.
As most all of you have mentioned, this song is about some guy having sex (or wanting to) with a younger girl. Really shady meaning...but an amazing song. It is my number one favorite song of all time (a close second is "Carry on my wayward son" by Kansas) and the guitar solo is nothing short of addictive. Truly incredible!
It seems like all of The Knack's songs just perfectly embody what it's like to be a sex-obsessed teenager. Like the whole album, "Get the Knack"--it will probably always remind me of people I knew in high school. And I wouldn't call them a one-hit wonder. Well, maybe The Knack only had one hit song, but the entire album I mentioned is awesome. I actually can't believe that The Knack has only one entry. "Oh Tara," "Good Girls Don't," "Let Me Out," "(She's So) Selfish"....they're all great songs, I thought more people would listen to them!As a side note, I also love Weird Al's "My Bologna."
I'm named after this song....mum and dad obviously huge fans think they should of taken a look at this website before hand though and seen what the song actually means! not much down for me is there haha
(cut to the Glooms' castle)
Hildy: Mm, what a perfect night for a moon tan.
Grim: Yes, your skin is looking paler and pastier than ever, my ghastly ghoul girl.
Hildy: Oh, Gwimmy. You always say what I want to hear.
Announcer: (on radio) Hey, you're listening to K-Scare. Witches and warlocks, have I got a contest for you. OWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOO! Answer a riddle by sundown tonight, and you'll win a fabulous designer witch's cloak made of midnight silk.
Hildy: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHH! Show me, Crystal. Show me.
Crystal Ball: Hey, did you see this? Check it out. (shows cloak) Fancy schmancy.
Announcer: (on radio) And it's lined with black diamonds. OOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Hildy: Oh, Grim. I want it. And I will look fabulous! in it. My annoying nemesis Snazzy Shazam will be so green with envy, she'll melt.
Snazzy: (in Hildy's thought bubble) Oh, Hildy. I wish I was you. (she turns green and melts)
Hildy: (in her thought bubble) I know you do, Snazzy. (thought bubble disappears; sighs) One can dream.
Announcer: (on radio) Now, here's the riddle, brothers and sisters. What do you call a witch at the beach?
Hildy: (wondering) What do you call a witch at the beach? I have no idea. Crystal!
Announcer: (on radio) Oh, and by the way, witch, don't even think about using your crystal ball to give you the answer to the riddle. It's against the rules and you'll lose.
Hildy: Bats! What's the point in having a crystal ball if you can't use it to win contests?
Crystal Ball: Well, I may not be able to help, but I know something that can.
Hildy: What's that?
Crystal Ball: Look at this. The 7D... (flashes image of Delightful's castle) ...just returned from the Enchanted Sea with a new knick-knack for Queen Delightful.
Hildy: Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh...
Grim: What is it?
Crystal Ball: It's called the "Pearl of Wisdom", and it's inside a crystal oyster, and it's got one heck of a magical power. Get this: once you open the oyster, you can ask the Pearl of Wisdom a single question, and it will give you the answer. Isn't that amazing?
Grim: How do you get it open?
Crystal Ball: I don't know, magic words or something. It's an oyster! Hey, did you hear about the oyster that didn't share his pearl? Do you know why? Because he was shellfish! Ba-boom! (laughs)
Grim: (laughs) I love the ball!
Hildy: Stop joking around and tell me where the Queen keeps the Pearl of Wisdom. Or I'll break you!
Crystal Ball: (feeling pressured) Oh! Relax, witch girl. It's in Queen Delightful's knick-knack room.
Grim/Hildy: (laughs)
(cut to Queen Delightful's castle)
Delightful: Isn't the Pearl of Wisdom just the prettiest thing you've ever seen?
Starchbottom: Yes, indeed, Your Majesty. And don't worry. I'll keep a watchful eye on your precious knick-knack.
Delightful: Ah! You said the word!
(cut to the exterior of the Glooms' castle, where Dopey is whistling the theme song, they arrive at the door to the Glooms' castle, where Sleepy pops up underneath the suit)
Sleepy: Knock on the door, Dopey. I gotta hold this box.
(Dopey knocks on the door, Grim welcomes Dopey)
Grim: Yes?
(Dopey shows Grim the snail)
Grim: You're sellin' snails? Excellent.
(We see Bashful sneaking into the Glooms' castle while Dopey is keeping Grim occupied. The scene immediately shifts back to Grim.)
Grim: What's the matter? Cat got your tongue?
(Dopey blinks)
Grim: Cat got mine once and it hurt.
(the scene shifts to a flashback of a cat hanging on to Grim's tongue)
Grim: But Hildy, it won't let go.
(flashback ends, Hildy walks to the front door next to Grim)
Hildy: Who is it?
Grim: I'm calling him the silent salesman. 2351a5e196
