Track Description
Available in:
"Galvanize" is a song by British electronic duo The Chemical Brothers and the first single released from their 2005 album Push the Button. It was released a week before the album's release and peaked at No. 3 in the UK charts (see 2005 in music). It won the Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording in February 2006. That same month, an Anheuser-Busch television commercial for Budweiser Select featured "Galvanize". The song also started appearing in NBC's Sunday Night Football coverage in 2008.

The track features a distinct Moroccan string sample from Najat Aatabou's song "Just Tell Me the Truth". The main hook of the song is in an unusual 6/4 time signature. The track also features rapping by Q-Tip (formerly of A Tribe Called Quest). In part of the song, a sample from their early single "Leave Home" plays.

In Australia, the song was ranked No. 65 on triple j's Hottest 100 of 2004.
It was the highest charting single in their native United Kingdom by The Chemical Brothers since "Hey Boy Hey Girl". Both singles reached No. 3. But in Spain it reached No. 1 and it held the top spot for two weeks.
Galvanise was formerly used as walk-on music by darts player Kevin Painter, and is currently used heavily during live T20 Cricket, specifically when a video review is taking place.
