The Twist | Chubby Checker Cover

"The Twist" by Chubby Checker is a landmark rock and roll song that became a cultural phenomenon in the early 1960s. Originally written and recorded by Hank Ballard and the Midnighters in 1958, it was Chubby Checker's 1960 cover that turned the song into a massive hit. Checker's version popularized a new style of dance—the Twist—which involved twisting the hips and torso, allowing people to dance without a partner. The song topped the Billboard Hot 100 twice, first in 1960 and again in 1962, making it the only single in history (at the time) to reach No. 1 in two different chart runs. "The Twist" is credited with igniting a worldwide dance craze and breaking generational barriers, becoming a defining track of the early rock era. It also helped launch a wave of other Twist-themed songs and dances in the years that followed.
