"She's a Lady" is the second single from Underdog Alma Mater by American pop punk band Forever the Sickest Kids. It was released on July 11, 2008 in the United States.[1] The song also serves as the group's debut single released in the UK on July 14, 2008 during the band's tour in the country. A limited edition 7" picture disc was also made and sold temporarily.[2]
"She's a Lady" was written by band members Austin Bello, Caleb Turman, Jonathan Cook and Marc Stewart, while production was handled by Geoff Rockwell and Matt Squire. The song was chosen to be the next US single after beating out songs "Hey Brittany" and "Believe Me, I'm Lying" in a poll conducted on the band's website.[3]
A music video was for the song premiered on September 13, 2008 and was directed by Phil Ruland, Ryan Ruland and the band's drummer, Kyle Burns.[4] The music video is intercut of scenes of the band at a party, performing the song, and showing a girl who meets with her boyfriend.
An older, previous music video of when the band first started out also exists. This version of the video goes through the same basic concept as its successor.[5]
Another video was made that consists of live performances of the band performing the song in the United Kingdom.[6]
