1) Underc… Read Full Bio ↴There have been multiple groups that have used this name.
1) Undercover was a Hard Rock/AOR group by a ex-Vandenberg singer Bert Heerink from Netherlands who make 2 albums in the 90s. One was Undercover (1990), a cover album, and second record was All Line Up (1994).
Personnel:
Bert Heerink Vocals
Dick Kemper Bass, Vocals
Ronald Bekking Guitars, Vocals
Ivo Elfers Drums
Cyril Whistler Guitar, Vocals
2) Undercover was a UK based pop-house group who hit the UK #2 spot in 1992 with their Stock, Aitken, Waterman produced cover of Baker Street. Pop covers of Never Let Her Slip Away and I Wanna Stay With You followed before the demise of the S/A/W 'Hit Factory,' but by then, Undercover's star was starting to fade anyway. They released two studio albums, Check Out the Groove and Ain't No Stoppin' Us!.
3) Undercover was one of the pioneering acts in Christian music. Formed in the early 1980s by Joey "Ojo" Taylor in southern California, Undercover brought a new punk sound to the Contemporary Christian music scene that differed from the Christian rock and Christian metal bands of the time. Through more than two decades and a few lineup changes, the band released eight studio albums and two live albums, and is considered by many to be pioneers in what would later be called Alternative music in the Christian world.
While the band has seen several members come and go (and come again), Taylor has said on more than one occasion that the band decided sometime after 1994's Forum that "Undercover is Ojo, Gym, Sim, and Gary," emphasizing that any other lineup, if any, would in the future be called something else.
Undercover played two reunion shows in California in August 2005. Their first eight albums have been collected into two sets, Anthology 1 (the first four albums on two CDs), and Anthology 2 (the next four albums on four CDs).

Undercover Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I said never mind I won’t do it anyway
Then you came around and took all of my time
Then you said let’s run from here and take this way
So then we took on the road for all we know
I was holding your hand I don’t wanna let you go
From that point on I got what I need
And in everything you’re all I see
We were drinking, smoking, and laughing
Then we thought about on what and who we are
You’re the greatest thing that happened to me
So then we took on the road for all we know
I was holding your hand I don’t wanna let you go
From that point on I got what I need
And in everything you’re all I see
So then we took on the road for all we know
I was holding your hand I don’t wanna let you go
From that point on I got what I need
And in everything you’re all I see
You're all I see
You're all I see
You're all I see
You're all I see
The song "I" by Undercover is a love song that talks about a relationship between two people. The song illustrates the journey of a person who was hesitant to commit to a relationship but eventually found someone who changed that perspective. The song starts with the individual contemplating doing something before deciding not to do it, but then they meet someone who takes up all their time, and everything changes.
The lyrics then mention the two individuals taking a road trip, where they share intimate moments such as holding hands, drinking, smoking, and laughing. The singer realizes that the other person is the greatest thing that ever happened to them. From that point on, they got all they need, and the individual they are with is all they see.
The lyrics of "I" are straightforward and relatable. The song's message tells a story of how one person's actions could change another's perspective of love and commitment. Ultimately, the song is an appreciation of love and the power it wields in our lives.
Line by Line Meaning
I’ve been thinking about something for a while
I have been contemplating a matter for an extended period of time
I said never mind I won’t do it anyway
Despite considering it, I decided against pursuing it
Then you came around and took all of my time
Once you appeared, you occupied my entire attention and schedule
Then you said let’s run from here and take this way
You suggested that we depart from our current location and take a new route
So then we took on the road for all we know
We then proceeded to embark on a journey with no clear destination
I was holding your hand I don’t wanna let you go
Throughout our journey, I was clutching your hand and had no desire to let go
From that point on I got what I need
Following that moment, I obtained all that I required
And in everything you’re all I see
In every aspect of my life and surroundings, you are the only thing I perceive
It was late at night we went to my car
During the late hours of the night, we proceeded to my automobile
We were drinking, smoking, and laughing
We consumed alcohol and tobacco products while sharing in merriment
Then we thought about on what and who we are
At that point, we reflected upon the essence of ourselves and our identity
You’re the greatest thing that happened to me
I view you as the most tremendous occurrence in my life
You're all I see
You are the sole focus of my perception
You're all I see
You are the exclusive object of my attention
You're all I see
You are the only thing that registers in my mind's eye
You're all I see
I perceive nothing else but you

Only you guys could take a great song and make it better! Wish I could have been there

Sim sounds a lot like Geoff Tate, the singer for Queensrÿche. In fact, a lot of the songs in this concert performance have an element of the music of the aforementioned band. Great footage. Thanks for sharing!!

I love this version better than the original, to be honest!!

One of the advantages of living in southern CA. I think Joey and Gym would recognize me from all the shows I've been to. But that's just luck. God bless.

@maxcap60 uh max, for this song, this IS the original singer. Sim just sounded different back in the "Branded" and "3-28-87" era
SerenityRemedy
