Craig David chats to I Like Music
CRAIG: Lyrically it was trying to say a guy never truly understands how a girl's mind really works. As a guy tries to and thinks he knows, it's six of one thing and half a dozen of another. And I just wanted to try and put it in a way that doesn't have to be about a break up or a relationship starting, but having an up tempo base record allowed it to feel… rather than taking it in the negative way, of not being able to understand what a girl is talking about, I was able to make it based around a dance track that you could play in a club so it would get some spins and then also going out to Cuba, to Havana to record the record, because the musicians out there were able to give the song enough of the live feel, especially with the horn section and the percussion to make it feel like a feel good song, not necessarily a depressing one.
ILM: It's the second single to be taken from your fourth album 'Trust Me' following the Top 10 hit 'Hot Stuff (Let's Dance)'. And it's pursuing a more soulful approach, with a looser live band style than on his previous albums. Which track did you enjoy laying down the most and why?
