Release: October 1, 1978

Lyrics:

Doing alright

A little jiving on a Saturday night

And come what may

Gonna dance the day away

Jenny was sweet

She always smiled for the people she'd meet

On trouble and strife

She had another way of looking at life

The news is blue (the news is blue)

Has its own way to get to you (ooh)

What can I do (what can I do?)

I'll not remember my time with you

Pick up your feet

You've got to move to the trick of the beat

There is no elite

Just take your place in the driver's seat

Driver's seat, ooh

Driver's seat, yeah

We're doing alright (ooh)

A little jiving on a Saturday night (yeah)

And come what may (ooh)

Gonna dance the day away (yeah)

Driver's seat, ooh

Driver's seat, yeah

Jenny was sweet (ooh)

There is no elite (yeah)

Pick up your feet (ooh)

Pick up, pick up (yeah)

Pick up your feet (ooh)

Gonna dance the day away (yeah)

Driver's seat, ooh

Driver's seat, yeah

Driver's seat, ooh

Driver's seat, yeah

Songwriter: Paul Roberts

Yeah

Driver's seat

SongFacts:

"Driver's Seat" is a 1978 song by British band Sniff 'n' the Tears, appearing on their debut album Fickle Heart. The band is considered a one-hit wonder, as "Driver's Seat" was their only hit, except in the Netherlands, where they had a second top 40 single.

The song's genesis dates back to 1973, when Sniff 'n' The Tears recorded a demo tape for a French record label with singer/guitarist Paul Roberts, guitarists Laurence "Loz" Netto and Mick Dyche, and bassist Chris Birkin. The drummer Luigi Salvoni was a new addition after the breakup of Moon, the band he had been in. They bought the demo tape and signed to the small Chiswick label in 1977. Keith Miller played the Moog solo and also toured America with the band. Noel McCalla sang backing vocals.

According to Paul Roberts, "Driver's Seat" is not about driving, but rather about "fragmented, conflicting thoughts and feelings that might follow the breakdown of a relationship." One of the key decisions when arranging the song was to start with the drums and gradually introduce other instruments.

"Driver's Seat" reached number 15 on the US Billboard Pop Singles Chart[4] in the fall of 1979 and reached the top 10 in the Netherlands in November 1980.

In Canada, the song peaked at number 17 and was in the RPM Top 100 for 21 weeks.

A 12-inch version was released on A Best of Sniff 'n' the Tears in 1991. The song appeared at number one on the Dutch Top 40 charts that same year because it was used in a Pioneer commercial.

Tuesday Tunes 196: Intros 5x5

Last October I ran a series of three posts of tunes with recognisable intros, and returned at the end of November for another set. As I continue on my trawl back through previous themes that deserve another look, I think this is one such: I had so many on my list! So today I’m playing my fifth set of intros – with absolutely no loss in quality from the previous four, though a couple of them might…
