"She Can Rock It" is a song by the Power Station. Released as their only single from their 1996 album Living in Fear, it was the band’s fourth and final single. It featured "Power Trippin'" as its b-side, a rock-funk song written by the band for the US version of the album, and also "Charanga" written by Palmer. An alternate version of "Charanga" was released in 1998 on the Robert Palmer compilation album Woke Up Laughing.

While promoting the single, the band was asked to change a tongue-in-cheek rude line in the song on an American talk show.[which?] They refused and the song was never played on the show.[citation needed] The band also recorded a live performance for Top of the Pops. Despite this the single spent one week at number 63 on the UK Singles Chart.[1]
