In the Mood is a song by Canadian rock band Rush from their debut album, Rush. It was at least two years old when recorded for the album. It is three minutes and 34 seconds long and in 4/4 time. It is the only song on the album written entirely by Geddy Lee (the music on all other songs is co-written by Alex Lifeson).
The song was always performed in concert — often in a medley, and usually near the end of the final encore — until the 1992 Roll The Bones tour, when it was dropped. In live performances, the line "Hey, baby, it's a quarter to eight" was often altered to include a woman's name in place of the word "baby."
The St. Louis Classic rock radio station KSHE used to play the song every Friday night at 7:45 ("a quarter to eight").
The song was covered by Canadian band Sloan for the 2002 movie FUBAR.

In the Mood (also known as The Woo Woo Kid) is a 1987 film directed by Phil Alden Robinson. It is set in the 1940s and stars Patrick Dempsey and Beverly D'Angelo.
The film is based on the true story of Ellsworth Clewer "Sonny" Wisecarver Jr., called the Woo Woo Kid, who became infamous in 1944 for having affairs with older women. His behavior sparked public scandal, primarily because of his age; at age 14 he ran off with a mother of two ... only to do it again a year later. It was the latter incident that sparked his notoriety; Eleanor Deveny, the woman he fled with the second time, was arrested and charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
