2. Not only this Smooth Jazz band shares same band name, they have a song called "Millenium"(2006) that is exactly same title (intentionally misspelled) as the other Incognito's (Jazz Funk) song on their album "100° and Rising"(1995), plus the logo resembles in font. The title "Every Day"(2006) on the album Street Smarts exactly alike in titles (when read) with the other Incognito's famous tune "Everyday"(1995). They are often tagged totec radio. Also mis-tagged by fans as bluey where there's no link to Jean-Paul "Bluey" Maunick himself. r00ts & t4lk1n l0ud tags also used, that could mislead fans to the Bluey's famous tunes like "Roots" & "Talkin' Loud".

Love Joy Understanding
Incognito Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's better to speak, and let each other know now
Let's face the truth, the damage done
It's been a little too late, but just a little too long
If we're to find our way back home (ay ya ya ya)
For tonight and the rest of our lives\t
Let's build a bridge to express what we feel
we both know we can't go on, with this empty space between
Let's build a bridge to what is real
Let's build a bridge to express what we feel
We both know this thing can't last, with this great divide in our lives
We need joy, understanding, love
The lyrics to Incognito's Love Joy Understanding convey the importance of communication in relationships. The opening lines suggest that it is better to speak up and let one's feelings be known, rather than bottling them up and causing damage in the long run. The song urges the listener to face the truth and acknowledge any damage that may have already been done, before it becomes too late to repair it.
The chorus introduces the idea of "building a bridge" to reconnect with what is real and express one's feelings. The repetition of this phrase emphasizes the importance of bridging the gap between oneself and their partner, as well as the need for understanding, love, and joy within the relationship. The song highlights that by building a bridge, we can find our way back home and maintain a healthy, happy relationship.
Overall, Love Joy Understanding is a song that explores the complexities of relationships and the importance of honesty, communication and understanding in maintaining a strong and healthy connection with those we love.

Drifting apart we slowly let it go
Too busy to stop and too blind to see
It gets a little too late, for just a little too long
We need love, show me the love
Brothers and sisters sing it with me (come on now)
Cos we need love, we need love
We need love, love, love
Just a little more love and understanding
Just a little more joy
Just a little love yeah, yeah

The world needs more Love, Joy & Understanding. The world needs more Incognito !
@bengo940
You just gotta love Incognito. They're so soulful :)
@murphycreationsvideos
So true, most Acid Jazz groups just don't have that soulful style that Incognito has, Brand New Heavies i would say is the next best thing to Incognito, however I love both groups, they are fantastic.
@jaycrossbow193
This band has always had such a great groove to them regardless of the members at the time. Saw them live in Charlotte at a cozy venue/couchbar way back in 1994 after Positivity came out.
@howardfisher5446

@kelleyfisher7060
Have Loved Incognito since the beginning! Now my 13, 11, & 9-year-olds love them too!
@ewencameron4951
Kelley Fisher the best education. peace out
@MsDitaD
@@ewencameron4951 I agree. So quality music for youth and good music taste developing.
@murphycreationsvideos
Me too, though I wasn't even born when they released their very first album back in 1981, I first heard of them in 1991 with the track 'Always There', then again in 1994 with 'Pieces Of A Dream' and I've loved them ever since this day. Though their rivals 'The Brand New Heavies' who are also just awesome with them responsible for my 2 favorite songs ever made 'Spend Some Time' & 'Dream Come True'. I feel that Incognito have kept the quality of music for longer whilst Brand New Heavies have kind of gone to a downward spiral since 1999 and the quality of their music has just slipped.
However this track from Incognito is easily my 2nd best track from the group along with 'Jump To My Love' being their 1st
