About This Song
About "Three Cool Cats (Original Mix)" by The Coasters
Three feline hipsters strut through a cool, nocturnal alleyway of sax and finger-snaps. The Coasters' 'Three Cool Cats' is a leer and a shrug, all swaggering bassline and deadpan delivery. The tension lies in the pose: these cats are too cool to care, yet the music's nervous energy betrays a desperate need to be seen.
