Won't care about the dance spin going round
Everybody doing it from grownups down
You got to move your head you got to move your hands
You got to move your lips just move your hips
Do the hips shake baby
Do the hips shake baby
Shake your hips baby
Shake your hips baby
If you don't know don't be afraid
Just listen to me do what i see
Don't you move your hip don't you move your hands
Don't you move your lips just move your hips
Do the hips shake baby
Do the hips shake baby
Shake your hips baby
Shake your hips baby
Ain't that easy now say is easy now
Met a little girl in the country town
She said what do you know about ..
She didn't move her head didn't move her hands
Didn't move her lips just move her hips
Do the hips shake baby
Do the hips shake baby
Shake your hips baby
Shake your hips baby

Damn good version, what a voice!
This song was composed and originally performed by Slim Harpo in 1966. Joan refers to him in the lyrics of her version in this tune.
huge fan. would love to see her live. would listen to her sing whatever she wanted. so underrated!
Better than the Stones' original.

I saw her in concert at a festival years ago. Most of the crowd only knew her from her God song. She ended up blowing us all away! Great voice and great power behind it. Love this song too.

I'm not getting any sound up here in BC, Canada. Anybody else having issues?
great song for driving. fast.
Yeah, decent version - not much reason to it, other than why not?
Not a patch on the original or on the Stones classic, but then ... hard acts to follow.
I do like the build up in this though, when it really cranks up a gear, it's a riot, so much kudos to the band, rather than Joan, on this.
I just don't think her vocal style works - not being sexist, but it's 100% a male vocal required.

A Stones song from the Exile on Main Street album. A very good cover version. Keith would be proud!
The Stones version is arguably even better than Slim Harpos original. They did a great cover of this song.

Thanks, I was perplexed who did the original - shame on me!
Slim Harpo, a tremendous influence from the Gator Rock section of the deep South, wrote the song and many, many other hits as well.

Yea, easy to hear that, but actually this song (and the style of it) predates ZZ Top. It was originally composted/recorded by Slim Harpo in 1966 (note she snuck his name in the lyrics), and really made famous by the Stones in 1972. Both before ZZ Top recorded La Grange.
I think Slim had his name in the song to begin with. The Stones even used his same line in their famous version. B.T.W. Got Love If You Want It (by Slim Harpo)is one of the best blues songs ever

Wow, I love this version - Joanie can hold her own as a vocalist that's for sure.
ZZ Top lovers - quiet. This riff isn't theirs. 'Nuff said.
Gotta shout out to the Stones too... too many people think of "start me up" when they think of the Stones. Meh. Listen to their 1968 - 1972 material, and you'll hear gritty, bluesy, raunchy, beautiful music that ties Slim Harpo to ZZ Top to Joan Osbourne. The Stones were a very important "bridge" back then.
And for the record, Keith Richards always freely admitted his influences. Like any good guitarist, he acknowledges his roots.
Sorry, got off on a tangent there.

Some might say " I appreciate the effort". I wouldn't.
I always hear the opening riff and hope that Bill is putting on ZZ Top's "La Grange". Nope, it's the hip shake song. Come on Bill, give us some La Grange.

Great song for the "home stretch" of Friday work 1.75 hours to go.
One thing is for sure. Joan ain't no Hooker.

Joanie's drummer does a smokin shuffle beat here, as does the ironically named Frank Beard on La Grange.
Why are there squabbles about ZZ Top and Joan Osbourne? How silly. John Lee Hooker and way before, back and back.

Sorry I don't have PSD, I'm on the livestream so I guess I gotta deal.I should like to hear this Slim Harpo original. Not sure if I've heard the Stones version either.
But I dig this version. You can do about anything with a Bo Diddley(ish?) beat and a distorted harmonica and I'm gonna like it.

It's a common theme on RP comments that a song you dislike is overplayed because you notice it when it comes on, but that rarely coincides with the objective number of plays.
Is Radio Paradise on autopilot? This song seems to be on every several days now. There seem to be a lot fewer music sets, too.

Hilariously, I started listening to RP again for the first time in 6+ months, and in my first 3hrs of listening what song do you think comes up? Yeah. *sigh*
I think what gets me about this song is that it's in regular rotation for such a long period of time, and yet it strikes me as mediocre *at best*. There were songs that played semi-regularly when I first started listening to RP 7 or 8 years ago that aren't played anymore at all. Some of them were quite good and things I'd love to be hearing today. This song was released in 2012 and I recall it being played around the time it was new, with a fair amount of frequency. 2+ years later it's still in regular rotation, and other (IMO better) songs released at a similar time have dropped off the list, or are at least played much less. So...
Oh well, clearly it's (mostly) just me. Also, Van Morrison just came on so all is forgiven, haha.

Me Likey like!
Heck ... I was just thinking that the ghost of John Lee was playing with Joan Osborne on that one ... then comes "This is Hip."
Nice.
Not usually a big blues fan, but this has got the juice.
Should I be embarrassed that I thought this was a Stones' original (ripped off by ZZ Top) for about 35 years?
Looks like Joan ditched the nose ring since "Relish"...a good move IMO.

If that doesn't get your butt jumping, you should maybe get it checked, there might be a problem.
Love to see this being remade, love the Stone's album this came from Exile on MaIn St.

Which rather puts me in mind of elephants on a Ferris wheel...
I get that you love this song Bill, and so do a number of listeners. But please just consider adjusting the frequency of play a bit, that's all. There's a world of other music out there for us to learn about. Hey, how about some Typhoon! White Lighter is pretty incredible in entirety. I know, I know, submit it...
From song info:
Last play: May 16, 2014 - 08:51
Plays in last 30 days: 3
Once every 10 days is not "heavy rotation". Still, if you think a song sucks, then one play every geologic era would probably count as "heavy rotation"...

This is lame, I don't care how hip people think it is.
Intro (happily) brings to mind La Grange by ZZ Top.

I really don't get the love for this song. It's so incredibly repetitive, uninteresting, unimaginative, and does virtually nothing to showcase Joan's great vocal talent. It's just a super boring blues cover. But, hey, to each their own. OK, people like it.
All I ask, all I ask, is please, for the love of god, just play it a bit less! I used to listen to RP a lot a year or so ago and it was in heavy rotation then, and it was one of the reasons I stopped listening. I used to be able to just keep RP on all day, but this song literally makes me have to turn it off, at least until it's over. Now a year or more later and the song is still in *heavy* rotation (for RP standards at least). I really feel like I shouldn't hear this song multiple times a week considering I only listen maybe 15hrs/wk total.
