” ‘Under The Influence’ was a fun song to record, purely because it has a great vibe.” After they recorded the track, they did a track of everyone just dancing along, clapping their hands and just shouting out random things and with James adlibbing.
The song has been used in NBC’s The Black Donnellys (s01e06) and in the movie 27 Dresses (2008).
Lyrics
I was sure, I was born and raised to be my own man
I was so sure, I was never going to need a helping hand
And she said, trust in your heart and there’s no need to understand
Well just when I thought I had it planned out
Whatever I do I’m under the influence of you
Whatever I do I’m under the influence of you
I was driving too close to the edge and living dangerously
I felt strange, a warm sensation rising up inside of me
Oh like a tidal wave came from nowhere swept me off my feet
Oh but somehow making me complete now
Whatever I do I’m under the influence of you
Whatever I do I’m under the influence of you
Whatever I do I’m under the influence of you
Whatever I do I’m under the influence of you
Once you’ve had a taste of it there’s no going back
Once you’ve had a taste of it there’s no going back
Once you’ve had a taste of it there’s no going back
Once you’ve had a taste of it there’s no going back
Whatever I do I’m under the influence of you
Whatever I do I’m under the influence of you
Whatever I do I’m under the influence of you
Whatever I do I’m under the influence of you
