"Beat Crazy" is the title track to the Joe Jackson Band's 1981 album, ''Beat Crazy''. Written by Joe Jackson, it was released as a single in 1981. ==Background== "Beat Crazy," according to Joe Jackson when he performed the song live at Pinkpop Festival in 1980, said that the song is dedicated to "drug-crazed teenagers all over the world."〔(【引用サイトリンク】first1=Joe )〕 The lyrics of the song complain of how kids of the time are too busy on drugs - saying that they are all too "beat crazy" - to take responsibility and get jobs. Musically, the song, like many others on ''Beat Crazy'', is more reggae-influenced than songs on Jackson's previous two albums. Unlike many other songs by Jackson, the lead vocals are performed by bassist Graham Maby with Jackson on supporting vocals. The vocals also feature an echo effect. "Beat Crazy" saw a single release in January 1981 as the second single from ''Beat Crazy'' (the first being "Mad at You," which didn't chart.) Backed with a rerecording of Jackson's first hit, "Is She Really Going Out With Him?," the song failed to chart. A third single, "One to One," also failed commercially.
