THE 1000 BEST SONGS IN THE WORLD EVER.

433-Kid Rock-All Summer Long.

2008-Number 1 single.

Best Bit-At 1.07. If he could have so much fun reminiscing about ‘Sweet Home Alabama,’ just think how much more he would have enjoyed those memories if it had been ‘Freebird.’ (see also best songs 12.)

Kid Rock was born Robert James Ritchie on January 17th, 1971, in Romeo, Michigan, United States. He has released 11 studio Albums between 1990-2017, of which eight have reached the Billboard Album chart top 10. He has had three of his 41 singles chart in America, and three also reach the UK top 40.

Kid Rock was brought up in an affluente family on his fathers six acre estate. As a teenager he became interested in Hip-Hop music, he learnt how to breakdance, and taught himself to Rap, entering talent shows around the Detroit area. His first endeavour as a professional musician was as a member of a Hip-Hop group called ‘The Beast Crew,’ where he came to be noticed by the music producer Mike E. Clark. Kid Rocks sound has gradually changed over the years, having began as a Rapper, he moved away from that genre, and over the course of his Albums he became a singer, encompassing Rock, Country, and Nu Metal. His song ‘Cowboy’ from 1999 is considered a pioneering song in the Country Rap genre.

‘All Summer Long’ was the third single released from Kid Rock’s seventh studio Album ‘Rock n Roll Jesus’ from 2007. The song samples two classic tracks from the 1970’s first suggested by Mike E. Clark,’Sweet Home Alabama’ (see also best songs 204) from 1973 by Lynyrd Skynyrd, and Werewolves of London,’ from 1977 by Warren Zevon, because of this there are a total of eight people credited as the songs writers, the production is credited to Clark and Kid Rock. Billy Powell (1952-2009) who had been a member of Lynyrd Skynyrd and had played keyboards on ‘Sweet Home Alabama,’ also played the piano on ‘All Summer Long.’

‘All Summer Long’ sees the songs narrator reminiscing fondly about his youth. Kid Rock has said,’I knew the track was solid, it’s got two of the best songs of all time mashed up together. It’s got great melodies, so really, my work was done’.

‘Splashing through the sand bar, talking by the campfire, it’s the simple things in life, like when and where.We didn’t have no internet, but man I will never forget the way the moonlight shined upon her hair.’
