"Let's Twist Again" is a song written by #KalMann and #DaveAppell, and released as a single by #ChubbyChecker. One of the biggest hit singles of 1961, it reached No.8 on the U.S. Billboard pop chart (No.3 on Cash Box) in August of that year and subsequently reached No.2 in the UK in the spring of 1962. The song refers to the Twist dance craze and Checker's 1960 single "#TheTwist", a two-time U.S. No.1 single (in September 1960 and again in January 1962 on re-release).

Come on, baby
Let's do the twist
Come on, baby
Let's do the twist
Take me by my little hand
And go like this
E-yah, twist
Baby, baby, twist
Ooh yeah, just like this
Come on, little miss
And do the twist
My daddy is sleepin'
And mama ain't around
Yeah, daddy's just sleepin'
And mama ain't around
We're gonna a-twist, a-twist, a-twistin'
'Til we tear the house down

Come on let's twist again
like we did last summer
Yeah, let's twist again
like we did last year
Do you remember when
things were really hummin'?
Yeah, let's twist again
Twistin' time is here
Round 'n around
'n up 'n down we go again
Oh baby make me know
you love me so and then
Twist again
like we did last summer
Come on twist again
like we did last year

I think it was early 80s. Geeze, my autobiographical memory is shit. Anyway. Saw #ChubbyChecker at #TreasureChest, outdoor free concerts they gave. The physicality of what these/those performers gave is amazing. He had to be escorted off the stage.

I think it was early 80s, god, my biographical memory is shit. Anyway. Saw #ChubbyChecker at Kenner Treasure Chest. Outdoor free concerts. The physicality of what those/these performers do is totally under appreciated. He had to be assisted off the stage.
