She's Tight


"She's Tight" is a song by the American rock band Cheap Trick, released in 1982 as the third single from their studio album One on One. It was written by guitarist Rick Nielsen and produced by Roy Thomas Baker. It reached No. 45 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart.
A music video was filmed to promote the single, which received regular airing on MTV. The band also performed the song on the show Laugh Trax, along with "Saturday at Midnight".
The single's B-side, "All I Really Want to Do", was a non-album track exclusive to the single. It was written by Nielsen and would later appear on the 1996 box-set Sex, America, Cheap Trick.
A live version of "She's Tight" was performed at the band's 25th anniversary concert in Rockford, Illinois during 1999. The performance saw Brant rejoining Cheap Trick on stage to play bass on the track, along with "If You Want My Love". The concert was later released in 2001 as Silver.

Critical reception

of AllMusic described the song as being "good and sleazy". Christopher Connelly of Rolling Stone said the song was a "spirited, though moderated, rocker," and remarked on the similarity of the song's guitar part to Eddie Cochran's "Somethin' Else."
John Serba, entertainment reporter and film critic for MLive.com/The Grand Rapids Press, describes it as his all-time favorite Cheap Trick song, praising the keyboard and guitar riffs, the beat, and the call and response. In the 2007 book Shake Some Action: The Ultimate Power Pop Guide, a section on Cheap Trick featured reviews on the top 20 stand-out tracks from the band. "She's Tight" was included, with the author John M. Borack writing: "Guitar riffs don't come any simpler than this one, but the keyboard squiggles, horny lyrics and head-bobbing rhythms on this one are undeniably fun."
