Lyrics
Well, the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'

Yeah, the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'

If the house is a rockin', don't bother, come on in



Kick off your shoes start losin' the blues

This old house ain't got nothin' to lose

Seen it all for years, start spreadin' the news

We got room on the floor, come on baby shake sumpin' loose



Well, the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'

Yeah, the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'

Yeah, the house is a rockin', don't bother come on in



Well, the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'

Yeah, the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'

Yeah, the house is a rockin', don't bother come on in



Walkin' up the street you can hear the sound

Of some bad honky tonkers really layin' it down

They've seen it all for years and 'ave got nothin' to lose

So get out on the floor shimmy 'til you shake sumpin' loose



Well, the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'

Yeah, the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'

Yeah, the house is a rockin', don't bother come on in

I said the house is a rockin', don't bother come on in

That was great fun, I love it!

[tamcranver]

Ah! This was so much fun! I loved how big a role the house itself played, which is perfect for this movie but not something easily conveyed in a short video, so kudos to you! It was also great to see the affection between Adam and Barbara and Lydia and everyone, and you caught some great facial expressions, too. The music is such a great choice, and it worked so well with all the dance bits. Thanks so much for this--it's a blast!

[settiai]

This was terrific!

[sholio]

Oh, this was wonderful! This movie was one of my favorites when I was a kid, and I feel like this vid really got the aspects of it that I loved most back then -- the oddball weirdness and Lydia's relationship to it, including her friendship with her ghost friends. Very nice!

[talumin]

Great choice of song, and you made it work so well!

[fairestcat]

Very cute.

[purplefringe]

What fun! This is delightful.

[cosmic_llin]

[axiom_of_stripe]

[kiki_miserychic]

Very fun, love the musical cues of feet on steps in the beginning. Good song choice.

[skygiants]

This was massive amounts of fun -- I've only seen pieces of the movie, but now I definitely want to watch the whole thing!

[frayadjacent]

I had such a great time watching this! Nice work with the music, and great song choice!

[odessie]

Wow, great energy and rhythm - this was so much fun to watch!

[were_duck]

This was super kickin! The last clip especially made me laugh :)

[ghanimasun]

Love the editing on this, it was a fun watch!

[seekingferret]

This was really fun. :D

[actiaslunaris]

I love how this captures the zaniness of the film, but also remarks on how the spirit of a home is in the people who inhabit it. Very fun and full of warmth!

[franzeska]

Hee! I haven't seen this movie in years: I'd forgotten how wacky it is. I love how you ended the vid.

[deirdre_c]

LOVED THIS!! You had me dancing in my chair the whole way through. :)))

[swizzlespoon]

Cute vid and I appreciated that the focus was more on the house and the people and ghosts and not just on the title character. Fun!

[echan]

Brilliant fun!
