Roxy Roller

At some point, everybody gets a song stuck in their head.  For the past few weeks, Roxy Roller by Sweeney Todd has been stuck in my head.

I originally heard the song in late November (when I recorded a radio show which played it).  I had put that show on a flash drive to listen to in the car a few weeks ago, and lo and behold, hearing it again got it stuck in my head.

For those who have never heard of them, Sweeney Todd was a Canadian band.  The singer on this song is none other than Nick Gilder (of Hot Child In The City fame).  Shortly after this song hit #1 in Canada, he left the band to pursue a solo career, and was eventually replaced by one Bryan Adams.

After seeing several versions of this on YouTube, I settled on this video, mainly because it offered the best sound quality on the song.  I have to admit that I'm impressed with the roller skating choreography in the video...  somebody really put a lot of work into making this!

Enjoy!
