"Knock on Wood" by Amii Stewart is a disco classic released in January 1979 as the lead single from her debut album of the same name. The song is a cover of Eddie Floyd's 1966 soul hit, reimagined as a high-energy disco track.

Produced by Barry Leng, Stewart's version features a pulsating beat, lush orchestration, and her powerful vocals. The song's infectious rhythm and Stewart's dynamic performance helped it become a massive international hit.

"Knock on Wood" achieved remarkable success, reaching number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in April 1979 and peaking at number six on the R&B chart. It also performed well internationally, reaching number five in the UK Singles Chart.

The track's popularity earned Stewart a Grammy nomination for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance at the 22nd Annual Grammy Awards in 1980. It remains her most well-known and successful single, often considered a defining song of the late disco era.

The success of "Knock on Wood" launched Stewart's career and established her as a prominent figure in the disco scene of the late 1970s. The song has endured as a dance floor favorite and is frequently included in disco and 70s music compilations.
