"I Get Off" is the debut single by American hard rock band Halestorm, released on March 10, 2009, from their 2009 self-titled debut album.[1] The song was written by lead singer Lzzy Hale with its producer, Howard Benson, and Dana Calitri, Kathy Sommer, and Nina Ossoff. Lyrically, the song describes deriving pleasure from sexual exhibitionism.

Critical reception

Tim Grierson of About.com wrote that "I Get Off" is "low-grade stripper-rock" that finds Hale "belting her sexual devotion in a rather unappealing way".[2] Nick at TuneLab conversely described the song as "instantly catchy" and wrote that "its ever-building verses blending seamlessly into soaring choruses".[3]

"I Get Off" reached number 6 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock airplay chart, earning the band their first top-ten single. It additionally reached number 17 on the magazine's Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart and number 28 on the Alternative Airplay chart. The song remains their only single to impact the latter chart. In October 2023, the song was certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for combined sales and streams of over 1,000,000 equivalent units.[4]

Music video
