They serve to take the album out on a steady ride. It is the beginning of the end for the album as the other songs, while not filler, they’re not spectacular either. “7th Avenue” is a good stomper but not one I would call single material. It could have made the album more successful. Gee, if I had a time machine, I would go back and advise the band on this. It has that catchy melody but at the same time, no less hard rock. Talking about songs more suited to be a better single than “Dance,” then the first song on side two, “Looking for Love” is a definite candidate. It was released as a single in Japan so the question is: why not anywhere else? But if I were to choose a better song for the single, it would be “Body Talk.” This song sounds more like the two big singles from the previous albums which made RATT a sensation. This is one powerful tune where the guitars pound at the catchy chorus, “Loose lips sink ships, the way you move, you don’t mess.” This one gets my vote for hidden gem. Two other videos were made, 'Body Talk', which was used on the soundtrack for Eddie Murphys film, The Golden Child, and 'Slip of the Lip'. Dancing Undercover es él es tercer álbum de larga duración de la banda estadounidense de Glam Metal Ratt. The album was produced by Beau Hill and contains the hit single/video 'Dance', which appeared in the Miami Vice episode 'Down for the Count'. “Slip of the Lip” progresses things along even further. Dancing Undercover is the third studio album by American glam metal band Ratt, released in 1986. I assume it was Warren DeMartini who played it but Wikipedia isn’t forthcoming on it. In fact, I think there are better songs on the album, actually practically all of them.Īs far as I’m concerned, the album doesn’t get into full swing until the third track, “Drive Me Crazy.” That one is an uptempo metal jam where Stephen Pearcy’s voice doesn’t sound tired and hosts a cool guitar solo. The single from “Dancing Undercover,” “Dance,” wasn’t a chart sensation. Debut album “Outta the Cellar” brought the world, “Round and Round” and “Invasion of Your Privacy” gave us the phenomenal “You’re in Love.” Both songs got me listening to those albums without any hesitation. What the album doesn’t have which the first two had was a big single. Actually, she may be right in this case, there is a bit of a ‘been there, done that’ feel to the album but at least they didn’t resort to synthesizers like some other bands were doing at the time. Her point being that the album sounded exactly like their first two. When “Dancing Undercover” from RATT came out, my sister stated that they should change their name to RUTT.
