''Rockin' the Suburbs'' is an alternative rock album by singer/songwriter Ben Folds, released on September 11, 2001 (see 2001 in music). His first solo album after leaving his band ''Ben Folds Five'' (while still a part of Ben Folds Five, he released an experimental album called ''Fear of Pop: Volume 1''), ''Rockin' the Suburbs'' is also Folds' most popular LP to date, and includes the well-known title track.
"Rockin' the Suburbs" is Folds' only single thus far to make Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks chart, peaking there at #28. The album peaked at #42 on the Billboard 200 chart, and at #11 on the Top Internet Albums chart. A remake of the title track featuring William Shatner appeared in the soundtrack for the 2006 film ''Over the Hedge'', which stars Shatner as a possum named Ozzie. - Wikipedia
