a song so good your spine signs the contract before your brain reads it.
means A song that's catchy and enjoyable enough to make you want to move or dance to it.
from Born from American jazz slang of the mid-20th century, where 'bop' (and 'bebop') named a fast, syncopated style — the word itself an echo of the music's punchy rhythm, possibly imitating the sound of a struck note or a bouncing beat. The slang sense of 'bop' as a great song is a much later, looser descendant, still carrying that original bounce.
