That same year, as an import, it peaked at No. 78 on the US Disco Top 80 chart.[2] In the US, the song was released as a single by EMI America on June 11, 1982, and included on the Built for Speed album released that same month. During its initial release, "Stray Cat Strut" failed to crack the Billboard Hot 100 chart, peaking at number 109 on the Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart in August 1982.[3] When the band's next single, "Rock This Town," made the top 10, the record company decided to re-release "Stray Cat Strut," this time with much more success. Debuting at number 43, it was the highest new entry on the Hot 100 chart dated December 25, 1982, eventually peaking at number 3 in March 1983.[4] The music video for the song received extensive airplay on MTV during the channel's early days.[5] The video consisted of band members (and extras) performing in an alley while an irate resident throws things at them. It also featured scenes from the 1949 MGM cartoon Bad Luck Blackie. In the October 1998 issue of Guitar World magazine, Brian Setzer's solo from "Stray Cat Strut" ranked No. 92 on the "Top 100 Guitar Solos of All Time" list.[6] Chart history{{col-begin|width=67%}}{{col-2}}Weekly charts

In 1989, Spanish rockabilly band Los Renegados covered the song in Spanish as "Gato de callejón", which in turn was later covered in 2006 by Jack y Los Daniels. In 2006, the ska punk band Reel Big Fish covered the song for a compilation titled Go Cat Go! A Tribute to Stray Cats. It was also featured as a playable track in the 2008 music video game On Tour, and was released as downloadable content for Rock Band (though credited to Setzer as a solo artist). In popular cultureOn the seventh season of Dancing with the Stars, Rocco DiSpirito and Karina Smirnoff danced a foxtrot to this song.
