Steve Winwood - Roll With It

“Roll with It” is a song recorded by Steve Winwood for his album of the same name, released on Virgin Records. It was written by Winwood and songwriter Will Jennings.

The Memphis Horns played on this song, giving it a brassy Motown feel. Motown Records thought the song was too similar to the 1966 track “(I’m A) Road Runner” by Jr. Walker & the All Stars, released on Motown’s subsidiary Soul Records. After legal action, the writers of “(I’m A) Road Runner” – Lamont Dozier, Brian Holland and Eddie Holland – were added to the credits of “Roll With It.”

Winwood’s biggest solo hit in the US, this spent four weeks at #1 and also topped the pop chart in his native Britain. The album of the same title also topped the US albums chart.

David Fincher, whose later directed the films Seven, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and Gone Girl, directed the music video.
