This was the #1 billboard song of 1979. I love your stink face and when you say good lord and need a moment to collect yourself when you hear one of the all time greatest guitars solos ever. Like you said the key word about this song is FUN!!!
I agree--one of the best guitar solos of all time! It's got all the elements of a great rock guitar solo.
Damn , that song will never age. A true masterpiece , and the solo is so genious. Damn Sharona, what had you done to those guys?😂
All time classic and beloved song. The intro building is , so genious. First drums rythm, Bruce Gary does his thing, after the electric bass guitar goes into with a little electric guit glimpse on the edge chords , then riff and to the end that vocal pleasure. Love the song. Is a great paradigm of music building.
The Knack was extremely underrated in the long term. They came out of the gate swinging with this song which was so popular that people got sick of them. The freshman album this was in was spectacular! There were numerous labels who tried to sign them initially. Unfortunately, the popularity of this song was ultimately the demise of them as it put them in the one hit wonder mindset. They had a resurgence in the 90's with it being a standout in the movie Reality Bites. This gave them momentum to put out a new album (Zoom) which in my eyes was their best. I had the honor of seeing them live and they sounded like their studio cuts. I was told that their first album was cut in one take! Unheard of! RIP Doug Fieger (lead singer)
I didn't know that about the one take, that's amazing. I think every song on that album is so solid and there are some really fine gems on there. They have a Buddy Holly cover as well which is great. I love the drumming on Your Number Or Your Name. It's just so tight and driving and perfect for the song. Lucinda is a killer cake on a slow Bo Diddley beat, and Maybe Tonight has one of the most beautiful bridges I have ever heard in that kind of music.
His brother Geoffrey Fieger was my attorney in a lawsuit.
They weren't around long enough to be underrated.
@@MarkCucchiara yes they were
I was honored to get to know their drummer, the amazing Bruce Gary(RIP). The coolest friend of my lifetime :)
This song has been used in everything. Commercials, tv shows, movies. And yeah, it’s a skate rink classic.
The Knack were an awesome band. And this solo is one of my favorites of all time.
I forgot all about this solo. You can tell he was influenced by Lynyrd Skynyrd guitar players.
Damn straight. One of the best ever.
Alice Cooper once said he really loves this song and wished he had written it, particularly the guitar riff. Awesome song! My daughter and I were picking a pizza up when a crackhead came into the restaurant and began singing and dancing to this song, lmao, I will never hear this song without thinking of him lol!!!
Get the Knack was a fun album. Good Girls Don't is another great track from that record.
I am so glad that you, as a younger person, are listening and enjoying our classic rock music. We were fortunate to have grown up with thee very best music on the planet, (I was born in 1957, 66yrs old now) the 60s and the 70s and the 80s were phenomenal. Britt, you were born a little too late. But I enjoy watching you reacting!
One of the best guitar solos ever. Real downbeat heaven to the ears. And every teenager loved the dirty lyrics.
My early 20's. Enjoy your youth while you can. 45 years later the memories...
sharona is the name of a girl he liked when he was young and he created this song in honor of her , sharona now sell realastate in los angels california
Sharona Alperin. She was only 16 or 17 at the time. Doug Fieger was 26. They remained friends until Doug died a few years ago
And got married and divorced in the meantime
You should see her now! Still looking great as a Beverly Hills realtor!
This song came out when I was a junior in high school and it is the perfect music for that adolescent age, it really is. There's no way you haven't heard this song before because it was so popular, Not only was it played at clubs and people danced to it, it was on the radio constantly and that album which is absolutely killer all the way through, Get The Knack, sold really well and it has been used in movies and commercials and just about everything you can imagine. And for being so hit-oriented and overplayed, it has what is truly a killer guitar solo in it.
Every song on that album is really amazing and they even do their own take on a Buddy Holly song. Each song is a gem in its own way. Good Girls Don't is what concludes the album and it's just this bouncy catchy pop rock thing, which includes harmonica in it as well, but they did have to make a radio friendly version because the album version had a few lines in it here and there which are absolutely nothing in today's world, but back then they had to do a radio friendly version. I think one of the lines is something like "and there's a teenage sadness that you know you can't erase, till she's sitting on your face!"
Oh yeah, and their frontman Doug died way too early. RIP.
When this was out we always would try to get it at the school dances. If we had the younger teachers or the older ones that just sat out in the hallway we could usually get it played at the dance. Any of the middle age teachers or the older teachers who listened to the words wouldn’t allow it.
Jr. high for me too. I was 13, I think.
Great reaction! Fun song. One of the most notable uses of the song in a movie was in the 1994 comedy "Reality Bites," where it was played during a scene where the characters dance around in a convenience store.
The song has also been used in commercials for products such as car insurance, beer, and electronics.
Additionally, "My Sharona" has been featured in TV shows like "The Simpsons," "The Office," and "Stranger Things."
Song played everywhere in my youth late 79 early 80s. One of the greatest catchy tunes of that era. Hugs!
This song came out in the late 70s, pre-dating MTV. I would guess this video was pre-recorded for a musical-variety show, a d then used on MTV as the video for the song. This song, along with another song of theirs, "Good Girls Don't", were suppose to be written as the view of a typical horny high school aged boy. "My Sharona" was popular enough in its dY that Weird Al Yankovic did a parody of it, "My Bologna"! There was another parody, "Ayatolla", done back then, too.
Great reaction!
When this came out, you couldn't listen to the radio for ten minutes without hearing it. We loved it, and sang along very loudly! 100% pure fun!
I never got sick of this song…came out when I was 13!
In the summer of '79 I was working on jets in a hangar in Las Vegas and the radio was tuned to a Vegas rock station... this song played a dozen times over an 8 hour shift.
It was so popular and a good change coming off the "horror" that was the disco era in the preceding years.
Sounds about right!
This was around the time when you could start setting your alarm clock radio to go off in the morning to "radio", and have music instead of ringing. This song was the bomb at getting you awake and out of bed! You just HAD TO start dancing your way to the bathroom and bopping your head while brushing your teeth. I am not a morning person and could hit the snooze button a dozen times before waking up... but, not when this one came on...lol!
There's a video of the Knack performing My Sharona live at Carnegie Hall in '79. Pretty stunning performance, with a note-for-note solo by underrated guitarist Berton Averre and lots of screaming teenage girls. Check it out.
This was such a phenomenal hit when released. Hard for them to follow it up. They deserve all the acclaim they got for this song.
One of my favorite bands. I actually got to hang out with them a couple nights.
This was briefly in a 90's movie called Reality Bites with Janine Garafolo. Great movie. I knew people who knew people who knew Sharona. Great choice for a reaction.
I'M GETTING TO BE AN OLD FART AND TO SEE A YOUNG PERSON LOVING THIS SHIT IS REALLY COOL!
Fu*king excellent pick, girlfriend. That was one of the first records that I ever paid for with my own money. A friend and I caught a trolly into town to the record store in my hometown of Gatlinburg Tennessee. We had just graduated the Eighth Grade and were due to be Freshman in G.P.H.S. that fall. The place was in the Mountain Mall on the strip and was called The Rhythm Section. We must've played this album a thousand times. Still love these guys. I know Doug Feiger has passed. My bud passed, too. Still.. this sound is triggering lots of good memories. Teenage angst and lots of lifetime firsts. First real girl. First real kiss. Holding hands was still something special. I can't put into words just what this makes me feel.. So glad you picked it. Thanks for the super cool reaction. Shoutout from this old, longhaired, hippy dude in East Tennessee. Keep-a-Rocking. I really do like your style. Hope your channel does well. Bless you and yours. Best of Luck. Much peace and lots of love. Catch ya on the next. Go with God. Later.
I forgot how great that song was. Thank you.😃🙏🏻
We used to go to the roller skating rink every Friday night as kids, back in the late 70's and early 80's and this song played at least twice a night.
One of my all-time favorite guitar solos.
the best power pop guitar solos ever. just perfection. Berton Averre just nailed it. amazing.
It's a whole dance scene in the movie, The House of the Devil, which was made in the early 2000s, but was set in the 80s!! Actually a really good movie!
#1 Billboard song hot 100 of 1979!! Great song!
Yeah, one of those perfect songs all the way through.
Still have the original LP I bought when this came out when I was in college. One of the best guitar solos of the decade, but you gotta let the song run babe. Sharona was Guitarist Mark Feiger's girlfriend at the time. RIP Mr. Feiger.
Doug (not Mark)
Fieger (not Feiger)
Sharona is a real person and is now a real estate agent in Beverly Hills!
At school, this was an instant classic. Everyone was like, "Yes!"
Haven’t heard this great song in years. Nice to see you love it! Thanks for bringing this Britt!!
This was the biggest hit from the year it came out, and was an excellent album. Unfortunately, they suffered a HUGE backlash from Deejays, music writers, and aging rock fans who essentially bullied them out of the business.
They thought that the album cover was disrespectful to the Beatles (The band was posed in an homage to the "Meet The Beatles" cover), and they were at the leading edge of the "skinny tie" New Wave movement just starting in California, and the old heads hated that too.
Sharona is Sharona Alperin, who was Doug Feiger's girlfriend at the time, she is now a successful real estate agent in Los Angeles. She has always said that one of the great things about the song is that now people know how to pronounce her name right.
A lot of people hate this song, but I've always loved it. Great dance tune, I always ask for it at weddings. We played this album a LOT back in the dorm rooms when this came out.
I was 14 when this album came out in 1979. I remember buying the album, getting it home and rushing to my bedroom, putting on my headphones and dropping the needle on the record player. After listening to "My Sharona" for about the third time, I was like "This is a dirty song" which as a young male made me love it even more.
Great solo in this song......when it was released it was a breath of fresh air.....all that was being played on the radio was punk or new wave.......this is rock n roll.......love it.
I remember this song was huge when I was a little kid. We all would be singing this in school through the hallways.😅
#1 Song of 1979

This got so much airplay when it came out. I still remember the first time I ever heard it. It blew up after that.
I distinctly remember this song playing over the stereo speakers at Spencer Gifts where I used to work when I was a senior in high school (1980/81). Lots of good ones from groups like Thin Lizzy, Styx, Sammy Hagar, The Who, etc., good memories and good classics.
Those roller skanks'll getchu in trouble every time. Great reaction to one of the catchiest songs of all time.
It was on the sound track album for the film Reality Bites, featuring Winona Ryder, Jeanne Garapaolo, and Ethan Hawke and directed by Ben Stiller.
Absolutely right on!!! ....a fun song...one that will now be in my head all day!
This song debuted in 1980, in the middle of the Disco Era. It was a breath of fresh air for Rock music fans that didn’t like Disco music at the time.
So glad you watched this version instead of the radio cut, which didn't feature the full guitar solo.. which is fricking epic!
Sharona Alperin was a high school classmate of a friend I had in college.
She was 17 when she got under Doug Fieger's 25 year old skin.
Great Guitar Solo, been listening to this since it was released, just a great song.
agree , its a very catchy song , great reactions as always !!!
"I always get it up for the touch of the younger kind. My my my wooh!"
Sharona is a real person. She's now a real estate agent.
Another bad ass song from this Era was "Turning Japanese", by the Vapors. I used my tennis racquet to mimic the rhythm guitar in this song. It was so good.
All roller skating rinks in late '79 played this incessantly. Yeah, and then it came back with Reality Bites in the early '90s.
Their album "Get the Knack" was gem after gem throughout. Like comments below, under appreciated. And great comments, each musician was first class, their guitarist and drummer specifically. Drums through the whole album were my favorite of all time. Nice reaction, great appreciation. Listen to their other songs from the album. Peace.
When this song first hit I didn't pay much attention to the lyrics. It was probably out almost a year before I realized how suggestive the lyrics are!
One of my favourites back in the day. I first heard it on a weekly music tv show called Top of the Pops here in the U.K.
I love them "roller skinks" back in the day ❗😂👍🤣
This is known as a syncopated rhythm, and very well done. Extremely catchy as you noted. BTW, the subject of this song, Sharona, was totally OK with being the subject of this rather erotic song!
This was such an exciting song when it came out! I was 18 or 19 years old at the time. Huge hit! Perfection!
This song was EVERYWHERE when it came out! Put the M in MONSTER!😂
The lead singer, Doug Fieger, his brother Jeffrey Fieger is a big-time attorney here in the 313 he represented Dr. Jack Kevorkian
One of the best flirting-on-the-dance-floor songs back in the day.
Spot on Britt, an eighties classic and features on the soundtrack to the film Reality Bites from 1994!!!
This was their only hit. It played on the radio so much people got sick of it and them.
Simply, the most perfectly written rock song.
Unfortunately, the Knack had one more minor hit and were never to be heard from again.
You nailed it about the roller rink, it was 45 years ago on Saturday night skate and dance.
Incredible song!!! Very good reaction!!!
Some ladies I used to work with called me Sharona all the time. 🤗👵🏼💜☮️
This song should be rock music 101.
You're definitely right.. one of the best "earworms" of the age... catchy as hell, in such a good way. If you're interested in discovering another one from about the same time I would recommend "Turning Japanese", which, if memory serves, was by a band called "The Vapours". Sorry, just looked it up and it's "The Vapors", American spelling.
Thanks for the trip back to my childhood... keep having the day you deserve. :)
This is a perfect song. Loved the video. Cheers from Ottawa, Canada🍁
No video 1979 before MTV. Sharona Alperin was the lead singer Doug’s girlfriend for four years and toured with the band. Skating rink fave from back in the day.
I was into the New Wave and I loved it. So different from anything else on the radio.
She's so funny with her reaction , i love her
A staple in roller skinks across our great nation.
Wow! I remember this from way back, but now I get the lyrics.
Lol. You're 30 years behind me and it's a thrill to see you get this song so in every little way. If you really want to see "naughty" check out "Good Girls Don't" by The Knack. Great song!
Oh, yeah! This was a standard in every skating rink I ever went to.
WIthin a year, this was required for any cover band, then every garage HAD to learn it. And yes, this is definitely the perfect roller-rink song.
And this is another one of those songs that makes me realize, "This is why God invented Strats and Les Pauls..."
There's a 2005 live in Japan. Just as awesome and even MORE fun.
1:05 Britt, That's cause it's been in a few TV ads and some movies, too...And they're playing that live at a LA TV rock show, around 1984 if I remember the DVD notes correctly (My library had it, so I watched it a great 10 song show)
Britt if you watched Reality Bites or Charlie's Angels Full Throttle you heard this in both of those and lots more.
The lead singer, Doug Fieger's then 17 year old girlfriend - Sharona Alperin, now a LA real estate agent - look her up & the album cover.
That guitar lead was epic!
It's been in a lot of movies. I remember when it came out.
I always loved that song even if I did not understand the lyrics at that time, still love it, it is very catchy.
I'M 68 AND WAS A MID TEEN IN THE 70'S. IT WAS "ALL" ABOUT THE MUSIC BACK THEN....AND A LOT OF THE SONGS ARE STILL ROCKIN'!!! THE 70'S WERE "THE BEST" FOR MUSIC!!!!!!!
Sharona is a real person!!!!
There was an episode of 'Eerie Indiana' where a character had his mind put on tape and this song inserted in it's place. Sharona wasn't here as she was solving murders with Adrian Monk at the time. Try 'Caroline' or 'Down Down' by status Quo...
Yet another song that's been used in a commercial you've no doubt seen.
Pezzo veramente accattivante, sfido chiunque a non battere il piede, muovere le spalle o la testa sentendola, è irresistibile...
Weird Al did a parody of this song called "My Bologna" . . . whoo! (Walking' thru the supermarket, thru the supermarket, searchin' all the aisles for my bologna.)
The lead singer, Doug Fieger (RIP) is the brother of the famous personal injury lawyer Jeffrey Fieger who ran for Governor of Michigan.
I was stuck in a VW bus for 2,000 miles with this playing so many times I wanted to jump out the window.
Takes me back to high school we had a juke box in the cafeteria good times .
