By Cast of Hairspray. By Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman. Arranged by Kevin Riley. Broadway,Film/TV,Musical/Show. 76 pages. Kevin Riley #681169. Published by Kevin Riley (A0.1077033)."You Can't Stop The Beat" is the finale number in the 2002 musical Hairspray. It is sung by Tracy, Link, Penny, Seaweed, Edna, Motor Mouth, Velma, and Amber with Corny and Wilbur as backing singers. Although the lyrics touch on sizeism and racism, the song also references broader themes of change and progression. The song pays tribute to the Phil Spector-produced 1966 Ike & Tina Turner hit "River Deep – Mountain High".Members of the Hairspray Live! cast have lovingly mocked the song as "You Can't Stop to Breathe".
