Following the release of their seventh studio album Cageless (2017) and its accompanying tour, current members of Hedley faced accusations of sexual misconduct with young women over the course of their career. After Hoggard faced additional accusations of sexual assault by two women, the group confirmed they would enter an indefinite hiatus.
On July 23, 2018, Hoggard was charged with one count of Sexual Interference and two counts of Sexual Assault Causing Bodily Harm. On June 5, 2022, Hoggard was convicted of sexually assaulting the Ottawa woman.
On November 8, 2018, former drummer of the band Chris Crippin spoke out against Hoggard's behaviour during his time with the band. Crippin stated he was routinely called a "f*ggot" and was told to "shut the fuck up" when he tried to speak out. In a separate interview in July 2019, Crippin said that Hoggard was "extremely rude" and it wasn't behaviour he wanted to be around.
On October 20, 2022, Hedley frontman Jacob Hoggard was sentenced to 5 years in prison after being found guilty of sexually assaulting an Ottawa woman.
Kiss You Inside Out
Hedley Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where I'm willing to take you girl
I will feel every inch of your skin
And you know I can rock your world
Imma be the calm in the storm you're looking for
I'll be the shipwreck that takes you down
I don't mind if you lie in my bed
Ouuu oohhh
Turn off the lights
Take off your clothes
Turn on the stereo
Ouuu oohhh
Give up the fight
I'm in control
Why don't you let it go.
Yeah, I wanna know you inside out
I'll spend my life trying to figure out
Just close your eyes and shut your mouth
And let me kiss you inside out.
I don't care if you steal all my air
We can breath in together as one
It's all right if you're here every night
Waking up with you in the sun
We start with an hour and we find we waste the day
Kicking back with the love we found.
I don't mind if you lie in my bed
We can stay here forever now
Ouuu oohhh
Turn off the lights
Take off your clothes
Turn on the stereo
Ouuu oohhh
Give up the fight
I'm in control
Why don't you let it go
Yeah, I wanna know you inside out
I'll spend my life trying to figure out
Just close your eyes and shut your mouth
And let me kiss you inside out.
Let me love you, let me love you
Let me love you babe.
Let me love you, let me love you
Let me love you babe.
Let me love you, let me love you
Let me love you babe.
Let me love you, let me love you
Let me love you babe.
I don't mind if you lie in my bed
We can stay here forever now.
Ouuu oohhh
Turn off the lights
Take off your clothes
Turn on the stereo
Ouuu oohhh
Give up the fight
I'm in control
Why don't you let it go
Just let it go.
Yeah, I wanna know you inside out
I'll spend my life trying to figure out
Just close your eyes and shut your mouth
And let me kiss you inside out.
I wanna know you inside out.
I'll spend my life trying to figure out
Just close your eyes and shut your mouth
And let me kiss you inside out.
