Are the neighbors watching?

Rockwell is not a movie, television show, or song, but rather the stage name of an American singer-songwriter and musician. Born as Kennedy William Gordy on March 15, 1964, Rockwell achieved fame in the 1980s with his hit single "Somebody's Watching Me."

Released in 1984, "Somebody's Watching Me" was Rockwell's debut single and the most successful song of his career. It soared to the top of the charts, peaking at number two on the Billboard Hot 100 and number one on the R&B charts. The infectious track featured guest vocals from legendary musician Michael Jackson, who also provided backing vocals throughout the song. The lyrics explore Rockwell's paranoia and fear of being watched, accompanied by a catchy and suspenseful melody.

Rockwell's unique blend of funk, new wave, and R&B in "Somebody's Watching Me" captured the attention of audiences worldwide. The song's popularity was further enhanced by its distinctive music video, which showcased Rockwell's eerie experiences in a haunted house. It became an iconic 80s music video, known for its spooky atmosphere and the appearance of Michael Jackson as a chilling phantom-like figure.

Following the success of "Somebody's Watching Me," Rockwell released his self-titled debut album in 1984. The album showcased his versatility as a musician, combining elements of pop, R&B, and rock. Although it was unable to replicate the massive success of his hit single, it spawned a couple of minor charting singles like "Obscene Phone Caller" and "Knife."

Despite his initial success, Rockwell struggled to maintain his momentum in the music industry. Subsequent albums, such as "Captured" (1985) and "The Genie" (1986), failed to make a significant impact on the charts. However, Rockwell continued to release music sporadically throughout the years, experimenting with different musical styles and collaborations.

While Rockwell remained relatively under the radar in mainstream music, his influence as a one-hit wonder has been enduring. "Somebody's Watching Me" remains a staple on 80s playlists and is regularly featured in movies, TV shows, and commercials. Its distinctive sound and memorable chorus have made it a timeless classic.
