The fourth song on Grace Jones' iconic 1981 album of the same name, “Nightclubbing” is a unique and rhythmic cover of punk rocker Iggy Pop’s 1977 hit.
“Nightclubbing” remains one of Jones' biggest and most well-known hits to this day.
[Intro]
It's much louder than before, man
Can you hear me?
[Verse 1]
Nightclubbing, nightclubbing
We're what's happening
Nightclubbing, nightclubbing
We're an ice machine
We see people, brand new people
They're something to see
We're nightclubbing, bright-white clubbing
Oh, isn't it wild?
[Verse 2]
Nightclubbing, nightclubbing
We're walking through town
Nightclubbing, nightclubbing
We walk like a ghost
We learn dances, brand new dances
Like the nuclear bomb
We're nightclubbing, bright-white clubbing
Oh, isn't it wild?
[Verse 1]
Nightclubbing, nightclubbing
We're what's happening
Nightclubbing, nightclubbing
We're an ice machine
We see people, brand new people
They're something to see
We're nightclubbing, bright-white clubbing
Oh, isn't it wild?
