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".

Incognito Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If you think that I am the kind
To sit around and wait
Say you've got me all wrong
If you think that I am gonna be here
Should your plans not escalate
Mr. Jones, Mr. Jones, Mr. Jones
Was it all for nothing
Mr. Jones, Mr. Jones, Mr. Jones
I can't give you any more
Was it all for nothing
Well I know she's got you hypnotised
Cos you're sitting right here next to me
But your heart is not around
I wished that I had you all wrong
But I know that it's time to step aside
Hitch another ride
I still got my pride
You must be losing your mind
If you think that I am the kind
To sit around and wait
The song "Mr. Jones" by Incognito is about a woman who is tired of waiting around for a man named Mr. Jones. The lyrics express her frustration and disappointment in his lack of commitment, stating "you've gotta be out of your mind if you think that I am the kind to sit around and wait." She is not willing to be there for him if his plans do not escalate, implying that she wants more from the relationship. She addresses Mr. Jones directly, asking him if everything she's given him has been for nothing. Despite his physical presence next to her, she knows that his heart is not with her and decides it's time to "step aside" and move on. The chorus repeats the name "Mr. Jones" and questions the value of the time and energy spent on the relationship.
