Jack & Diane

}}
"Jack & Diane" is a 1982 hit rock song written and performed by American singer-songwriter, John Mellencamp, then performing as "John Cougar." It appears on Mellencamp's album ''American Fool''. It was chosen by RIAA as one of the Songs of the Century. The single spent four weeks at number one on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 in 1982, and, to date, is Mellencamp's most successful hit single.
==Background and production==
According to Mellencamp, "Jack & Diane" was based on the 1962 Tennessee Williams film ''Sweet Bird of Youth''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Mellencamp discusses Jack and Diane )〕 He said of recording the song: "'Jack & Diane' was a terrible record to make. When I play it on guitar by myself, it sounds great; but I could never get the band to play along with me. That's why the arrangement's so weird. Stopping and starting, it's not very musical." Mellencamp has also stated that the clapping wasn't supposed to be included in the finished song. It was recorded with the clapping in order to help keep tempo and then it was to be removed. However, he realized the song did not work without it.
The song was recorded at Criteria Studios in Miami, Florida, was produced by Mellencamp and Don Gehman (with Gehman also engineering), and backing Mellencamp were guitarists/backing vocalists Mick Ronson, Mike Wanchic, Larry Crane, drummer Kenny Aronoff, bassist/backing vocalist Robert Frank, and keyboardist Eric Rosser.〔
In 1982, producer and guitarist Mick Ronson worked with Mellencamp on his ''American Fool'' album, and in particular on "Jack & Diane." In a 2008 interview with ''Classic Rock'' magazine, Mellencamp recalled:
"Mick was very instrumental in helping me arrange that song, as I'd thrown it on the junk heap. Ronson came down and played on three or four tracks and worked on the ''American Fool'' record for four or five weeks. All of a sudden, for 'Jack & Diane,' Mick said 'Johnny, you should put baby rattles on there.' I thought, 'What the fuck does put baby rattles on the record mean?' So he put the percussion on there and then he sang the part 'let it rock, let it roll' as a choir-ish-type thing, which had never occurred to me. And that is the part everybody remembers on the song. It was Ronson's idea."〔John Mellencamp, ''Classic Rock'', January 2008, p.61〕
