==Background==
BodyRockers formed in 2004 as an electronic music duo, consisting of Dylan Burns and Kaz James.〔 Burns (ex-ColourSound), a singer-guitarist from Canterbury England, was visiting Melbourne, Australia when he was introduced to James by another DJ, Jason Herd.〔 James had worked as a House music DJ in Australia and then "played everywhere from Italy to Greece, Spain, Japan and Mykonos".〔 The pair first played together with Burns on guitar over James' rocky DJ set.〔 Within a month of their first meeting, the duo created "I Like the Way",〔 a song loosely based on Billy Idol's 1987 cover version of "Mony Mony" by Tommy James and the Shondells. Released as a single in April 2005, it reached No. 3 on the UK Singles Chart;〔 No. 12 on the Australian ARIA Singles Chart;〔 and made the Top 20 on both the United States ''Billboard'' Hot Dance Club Play and Hot Dance Airplay Charts.〔〔(Billboard chart data from billboard.com )〕
The success of "I Like the Way" allowed BodyRockers to tour internationally throughout 2005 and into 2006. In a 2007 interview, James described this era as "amazing times! We toured the world with a band and sold a shit-load of records".〔 In late 2005, the group released a follow-up single, "Round and Round", which reached the ARIA Singles Chart Top 40.〔 Both songs appeared on their debut 2005 album, ''BodyRockers''. They recorded a second album, however the two mutually decided not to release it and instead to pursue their own career paths. As James stated, "Since then we have moved on and actually made a second album but decided that we both wanted to go down different paths in our lives and going on the road as BodyRockers again for another three years promoting another album wasn't what we wanted".〔
