The Real Meaning Behind 'Party Rock Anthem' By LMFAO

So what is the story behind LMFAO's "Party Rock Anthem"? According to StoryofSong, the song was written, interestingly enough, by producer GoonRock for Flo Rida. But luckily Redfoo and Sky Blu got their hands on it, and at the same time, were embracing their humor and finding their footing. "I feel like we've been doing this for so long, five or six years, ... And we're kind of like saying, well, let's just do what's natural and just kind of explore that, instead of like forcing it all the time," Redfoo explained, via Digital Spy. "I was really passionate about bringing party music to the world, so I will always be making some kind of party music."

As for the actual lyrical content of the song, there's no mistaking that this is some certified "party music."

"In the club: Party rock / Looking for your girl? She on my jock (Huh) / Non-stop when we in the spot," Redfoo raps on the first verse. "Booty moving weight like she on the block (Woo!) /Where the drank? I gots to know."

Of course, the chorus lays it all out bare: "Party rock is in the house tonight / Everybody just have a good time (Yeah) / And we gon' make you lose your mind (Woo!) / Everybody just have a good time." No doubt this energized track is the perfect party starter, even a decade later.
