All Night Long
Celine Dion & Anastacia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

He was a fast machine
He kept his motor clean
He was the best damn man I had ever seen
He had the sightless eyes
Telling me no lies
Knockin' me out with those American thighs

Taking more than he share
Had me fightin' for air
He told me to come but I was already there
'Cause the walls were shakin'
The earth was quakin'
My mind was achin'
And we were makin' it and you

Shook me all night long
C'mon girlfriend
Oh yeah
Shook me
Said you shook me all night long
Oooh shook me

Workin' double time
On the seduction line
He was one of a kind, he's just mine all mine
Wanted no applause
Just another course
He made a meal out of me and came back for more

Had to cool me down
To take another round
Now I'm back in the ring to take another swing
Now the walls were shakin'
The earth was quakin'
My mind was achin'
And we were makin' it and you

Shook me all night long
C'mon girlfriend, shook me
Ooooooooh you
Shook me all night long
Everybody sing with me
You shook me all night long
Oooh
Shook me, shook me baby
You shook me all night long
Shook me

C'mon
I said, you shook ma all night long
Oooooooh oooooh you
Shook me all night long
You, you, you
Shook me all night long
You
Shook me baby you
Shook me all night long




Yeah, you shook me, you shook me
Oooooh, you shook me, you shook me, you shook me, you shook me

Absolutely love this version. Both phenomenal vocalists!

@benjaminA.stantonpun

They did not even try to sound like the original. That is why I freaking love this‼️ If I want the original, I will simply put on AC⚡️DC itself. This cover is severely underrated. 🤘😎👍

@devilskware

Ha sure! I think the kids say "cringe" these days. It's one of the most cringe things I've ever seen

@CuponkAddict

Idk why people think this is bad. Her voice is powerful and it's true to the original.

@mrHoppedupford

This shit is disgusting looking.

@benjaminA.stantonpun

I am with you there. I would pick this over the original any day. 😃👍

@matthewkim8158

So sad Anastacia's career never took off stateside. She was so massive in Europe and parts of Africa. Such an underrated talent here in the states

@bsbncandey

I love this cover! Celine is so funny, love her!

@wahltowahl1

I have no complaints with this song. They performed it their way. Nothing wrong with that. It’s called being artistic and no they did try to si g it better then original singer but their interpretation. Rock on ladies. Well done

@mrHoppedupford
