Electric Avenue (song)
"Electric Avenue" is an RIAA platinum-certified single by Eddy Grant, from his 1982 album ''Killer on the Rampage''. In the United States (U.S.), it was one of 1983's biggest hits of the year. The song's lyrics refer to the 1981 Brixton riot, the title referring to Electric Avenue, a market street in the Brixton area of London.
It was initially released as a single in 1982, and reached #2 on the UK Singles Chart. In March 1983, CBS decided to launch the single in the U.S., where it spent five weeks at #2 on the ''''Billboard'' Hot 100'' (kept out of the top spot by a combination of two songs, "Flashdance... What a Feeling" by Irene Cara and that year's song of the summer, "Every Breath You Take" by The Police) and hit #1 in ''Cash Box'' magazine. "Electric Avenue" was a hit on two other US charts: On the soul chart it went to #18. On the dance charts, it peaked at #6.
The song is featured in the films, ''Pineapple Express'', ''Wrong Turn 2: Dead End'' and ''Jackass 3D''.
