Shake It Up is the fourth studio album by American rock band The Cars, released in 1981. It was the last album by the Cars to be produced by Roy Thomas Baker. A much more pop-oriented album than its predecessor, its title track became their first Billboard top ten hit.
"Since You're Gone" appears on The Last American Virgin soundtrack album.
"I'm Not the One" was remixed upon its inclusion on their Greatest Hits album of 1985, with special attention paid to the electronic percussion and echo effects. The song also appears in the 1995 film Billy Madison.
The cover model is Mary Ann Walsh.
All tracks written by Ric Ocasek, except where noted.
