Song lyrics
I've forgotten what it feels like to feel normal
To be normal
And I've forgotten what food tastes like
The way it tastes right
The taste buds taste right
Well, I wake up in so much spit and sweat
It is not normal
What is normal?
Well, I go to bed
When I wake up
After cleaning all
All the spit and sweat

Now I'm, now
I'm sh-sh-shakin', sh-shakin' (x4)
Now

I tossed and turned all night
'Cause I, 'cause I was looking for, for an ending
This was so because, because I watched all day
The Neverending Story with Atreyu

The next day came but not a beam of light
Because the blinds were shut
Sh-sh-sh-shut so tight

Well, I fell out of bed laced in spit and sweat

It made me very cold (x2)

Now I'm, now
I'm sh-sh-shakin', sh-shakin' (x4)
I'm sh-sh-shakin'

Well, I'm supposed to feel better
This nightmare's supposed to end

I am holdin' on (x4)

I'm sh-sh-shakin', sh-shakin' (x4)
Now, yeah, now, yeah

I'm shakin' (x5)

i feel like $#!+ right now...but this song gives me the feeling of "holding on" even how i feel. and aside my past hangovers which also add to this kick arse song, "i'm supposed to feel better, this nightmare's supposed to end." i Could pLug that Into another meaning in my liFe right now...and if ive rambled on im sorry, but this song kicks major arse and its kool and Funny and sOmehow its own oRiginal. now im not too sure wtf is up with this song on the oc but i think i first hearD it On the Radio and i was drawn to it the first ten seconds it played...no matter the mood i was in. well thanks for listening to me But yeah this song is awesome! This might be the only song that i have heaRd of theres but It rocks ANd they definately have potential!

Oh my God, let me just say that EVERY SINGLE SONG THAT HAS BEEN PLAYED ON THE O.C. THAT I HAVE LIKED AND CHECKED OUT THE BAND AND COME TO POST A GOOD COMMENT ON IT, AT LEAST 4 OUT OF 5 PEOPLE JUST GET WRITTEN OFF FOR MENTIONING THE O.C. AND GET ACCUSED OF ONLY LIKING IT BECAUSE THEY HEARD IT ON THE SHOW. Okay, now that that's out, I just wanted to say I do agree that it's gay if you only like the song because they played it on your favourite show, and I know real fans would be mad at that, but you're killing the enjoyment for all the people who actually did their research and like the band and just want to praise the song but they can't because they'll get axed to death! So yeah, I wanted to say that Rooney rock out and I'm Shakin' is an awesome track. Hopefully I'm still alive tomorrow...

Although I just started listening to Rooney, I have to say that this has got to be one of their best songs. I first saw them perform on the O.C., but I didn't like them because they were on that show, but because their music is great!! That's the same reason everyone else should like them. By the way, where's the best place to get their CD?

i like rooney, and ill admit, i heard of them mainly on the oc, but...i also heard about them from princess diaries-i just didnt follow up on them till recently. the oc is a hotspot for emerging artists, and they mention some great bands!! i guess im trying to say is get over the whole oc thing, who cares if they were on there its been done, nothing you can do about it!

The Rooney expert has arrived.

-"I'm Shakin'" is in fact about having a hangover, it is believed. Robert said in a radio interview, "It's about a time when I was 'sick'." He has also said other things about it though. He told one fan that it was about how the movie 'The Neverending Story' used to give him nightmares when he was younger.

-I was a Rooney fan long before they were on The O.C., and I think it was a bad career move for them, and the episode they were on was really cheesy. However, they are selling triple the amount of CD's they did before that appearance, so in the end it was a good thing.

-No, they only have one CD out, the self-titled one. Their next CD (which their guitarist Taylor does not agree with me when I say it should be named "Manzana") will be out early 2005. They're going to begin recording for this album very soon. In just a couple of weeks.

-You can download a demo of Rooney's new song "In My Pocket" at [url]http://www.losingallcontrol.com[/url]. This song was released in the UK on the single for "I'm Shakin." I live in the US but I have it, because I have cool friends from the UK.

-Contrary to popular belief, "I'm Shakin'" was not Rooney's first single. "Blueside" was, back in May/June/July of 2003.

-And a little fact about the "I'm Shakin'" music video: Although the video's sort of boring, those people in the crowd are real fans from LA that were invited out to the video shoot. Ned's brother Lucas, who is a lovable roadie for Rooney, can also be seen in the video in the crowd.
