Rock My World is the name of a 1988 hit single by British pop group Five Star, peaking at UK #28 in August of that year and becoming their last ever UK Top 40 chart entry. The video saw the band leather clad, with long hair extensions, dancing in the bottom of a quarry, with dumper trucks driving around them. The b-side to the single "Sweetest Innocence" received a BPI award for best instrumental.
During the last half of 1988, Five Star experienced a decline in sales, the album Rock The World, from which this single came from, reached #16 on the UK album chart, the first of their albums not to make the Top 10. The next single, "There's A Brand New World", would bring Five Star's run of 16 consecutive Top 20 hits to an end, as it only reached UK #61.
