Finger Eleven led off their sixth album, Life Turns Electric, with "Living in a Dream" in 2010, and the Canadian band went right back to the well that "Paralyzer" had dug: a strutting dance-rock groove, chunky guitars locked to a beat built for hips as much as heads. It's glossy, hooky and a little sly, arena rock that wants to be played in a club.

It never matched "Paralyzer" abroad and missed the Billboard Hot 100 in the States, but it found a second home in the wrestling ring when WWE picked it as the official theme for the 2011 Royal Rumble. Wind-up Records put it out.
