Formed in 1992, they are fronted by vocalist Jay Kay, and were prominent in the London-based funk and acid jazz movement of the 1990s. They built on their acid jazz sound in their early releases and later drew from rock, disco, electronic and Latin music genres. Lyrically, the group has addressed social and environmental justice. Kay has remained as the only original member through several line-up changes.
The band made their debut under Acid Jazz Records but subsequently found mainstream success under Sony. While under this label, three of their albums have charted at number one in the UK, including Emergency on Planet Earth (1993), Synkronized (1999) and A Funk Odyssey (2001). The band's 1998 single, "Deeper Underground", was also number one in their native country.
As of 2017, Jamiroquai had sold more than 26 million albums worldwide. Their third album, Travelling Without Moving (1996), received a Guinness World Record as the best-selling funk album in history. The music video for its lead single, "Virtual Insanity", also contributed to the band's success. The song was named Video of the Year at the 1997 MTV Video Music Awards and earned the band a Grammy Award in 1998.

Hey Hey
Jamiroquai Lyrics
There's a man, runnin' hot
And there's a night train
I know he's gonna stick it out
Ride that crazy white horse
He's a man
He's a pig in paradise
But he might get blown into the weeds tonight
Seems like there's a record stuck
And man I couldn't make it up
He's a cool hand Luke
He's a duke on a slippery slope
He's dispossessed and crazy
Thank you for nothing baby
All those dreams are going up in smoke
I said
Hey Floyd, you got your mind in a mess again
Hey Floyd, you gotta learn how to break the chain
Oh oh, yeh eh
There's a night train to your heartbreak
Get on
It's the dream time
That's been driving you on
No more blue sky hanging over your head
So what you gonna do Floyd?
(Do Floyd)
I gotta know, gotta know what you're gonna do
What ya gonna do, what ya gonna do?
What ya gonna do Floyd? (do Floyd)
I gotta know, I've gotta know what you're going to do
There's a night train to your heartbreak get on
It's the dream time
That's been driving you on, and on
No more blue sky hanging over your head
No more blue skies hanging over you ooh
Come on Floyd!
Shoot 'em up and shoot 'em down
Cut down this bird of freedom
Kick it, stick it, doin' what you can
Gotta make the pieces fit
Get rid of all that shit
Floyd, you can't forget that you're a man
I said
Hey Floyd, you got your mind in a mess again
Hey Floyd, you got time on your hands to mend
Come on Floyd!
Gotta learn to break the chain down baby
Hey Floyd!
Gotta learn to break the chain down baby
Get off that shotgun ride
I know how much you tried
To blow the high priestess of pain away
You're a lone extravaganza
A dirty player and a dirty dancer
Hell man, you don't even know your name
Hey Floyd, you got your mind in a mess again
(You got your mind in a mess again)
Hey Floyd, you gotta learn how to break the chain
(Dirty player, dirty dancer)
Come on Floyd
(Dirty player, dirty dancer)
It's all I ask of you
(Dirty player, dirty dancer)
Come on Floyd
It's all I ask of you
Hey Floyd,
Don't get your mind in a mess again
And there's a night train
I know he's gonna stick it out
Ride that crazy white horse
He's a man
He's a pig in paradise
But he might get blown into the weeds tonight
Seems like there's a record stuck
He's a cool hand Luke
He's a duke on a slippery slope
He's dispossessed and crazy
Thank you for nothing baby
All those dreams are going up in smoke
I said
Hey Floyd, you got your mind in a mess again
Hey Floyd, you gotta learn how to break the chain
Oh oh, yeh eh
There's a night train to your heartbreak
Get on
It's the dream time
That's been driving you on
No more blue sky hanging over your head
So what you gonna do Floyd?
(Do Floyd)
I gotta know, gotta know what you're gonna do
What ya gonna do, what ya gonna do?
