Mando Diao
Dance With Somebody (Radio Version)
Mando Diao trade garage-rock grit for a disco-rock floor-filler, a pulsing four-on-the-floor beat and a shout-along chorus about needing someone to dance with.
Gin Wigmore
Written In The Water
Gin Wigmore snarls through a short, stomping blues-rock number from her 2015 album Blood to Bone, her raspy voice squaring up to fate, and splits its video into a two-part outlaw story.
Gin Wigmore
New Rush
Gin Wigmore's 2015 comeback single, co-written with Charlie Andrew, hits like a jolt of adrenaline: pounding drums and a chant-along chorus pushing her husky voice towards a fresh start after a stifling relationship.
Gin Wigmore
Man Like That
A stomping blues-soul strut in which Gin Wigmore's raspy, fearless voice lays out exactly the kind of man she wants, produced by Butch Walker for Gravel & Wine and later sung in a Heineken James Bond ad.
Gin Wigmore
Kill Of The Night
Gin Wigmore's smoky rasp prowls over stomping drums and a swaggering, bluesy strut, a midnight hunt sung by someone who fully intends to win.
Gin Wigmore
Black Sheep
Stomping drums, chanted backing vocals and a shout-along hook frame Gin Wigmore's gravel-edged voice in a proud anthem for everyone who never fit the flock.
Bodyrockers
I Like The Way (Radio Edit)
A crunching dance-rock riff, a strutting beat and a hook about the way you move: Bodyrockers' 2005 floor-filler is pure, unashamed swagger.

Snap Out Of It
Alex Turner pleads with a lover to wake up from someone else's spell over a swaggering, hand-clapped shuffle and a chorus hook that sticks for days: the sixth single from AM.
Arctic Monkeys
R U Mine?
Arctic Monkeys turn a jealous late-night text into a riff-heavy stomp, with Alex Turner's rapid-fire wordplay riding a fuzzed-out, swaggering guitar line.
Arctic Monkeys
Do I Wanna Know?
A heavy, crawling riff, stomping handclaps and a late-night text that should never have been sent: Do I Wanna Know? turns romantic doubt into slow-burning swagger.
Adam Freeland
Do You
Melodic synths crash into live drums and a snarling rock vocal: Do You opens Freeland's Cope with a breakbeat-punk jolt that sounds like a band and a DJ at war.
Eli
Faster You Fall
Eli Meltzer, better known as the Bay Area rapper and producer Smoov-E, borrows the swagger of early rock and roll for a short, cocky chase song built on one taunting refrain.
The Police
Roxanne
Sting wrote 'Roxanne' after seeing street workers near the band's Paris hotel in 1977: a plea to a woman to leave that life, set to off-beat reggae guitar and a tango-like rhythm, the A&M debut single that became the Police's signature song.
Freeland
Under Control
The lead single of Freeland's Cope swaps the guitar riff for a roaring synth and puts Kurt Baumann's deadpan vocal over breakbeat-bred drums: electronic rock with a raw, defiant edge.
Nancy Sinatra
Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)
Nancy Sinatra's 1966 version of Sonny Bono's song, built on Billy Strange's haunting tremolo guitar, is a hushed ballad of childhood love and betrayal that Quentin Tarantino revived over the opening credits of Kill Bill.
