"Rock Me" is a song by English singer-songwriter Melanie C from her fifth solo album, The Sea. It was released as the album's buzz single on 24 June 2011 in Germany. Written by Melanie C, Dave Roth and David Jost, it serves as official theme song for German TV channel ZDF's coverage of the 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup.[1] Melanie C performed this on The Sea – Live tour as the opening song. The song debuted at number 38 in the German Singles Chart.

The video premiered two weeks before the release of the single. It was filmed in Manchester, UK. It featured Chisholm dancing around in a skate park (Namely Projekts Skatepark), and in front of a wall with letters "Rock Me" painted on it. Chisholm was also the choreographer for the music video.
