Sheena Easton – Strut
Sheena Easton – Strut (1984)
Directed by: Brian Grant
Strut is a bold and empowering track by Scottish singer Sheena Easton, released in August 1984 as the lead single from her fifth studio album, *A Private Heaven*. Written by Charlie Dore and Julian Littman, and produced by Greg Mathieson, the song marked a significant shift in Easton’s musical style towards a more edgy and assertive pop sound. Lyrically, “Strut” challenges the objectification of women, with Easton delivering a performance that exudes confidence and defiance. The accompanying music video, directed by Brian Grant, features Easton in a series of dynamic and stylish visuals that complement the song’s themes. “Strut” achieved commercial success, peaking at number 7 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and earning Easton a Grammy nomination for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance in 1985.
