"Little L" opened the account for A Funk Odyssey, Jamiroquai's fifth album, in August 2001, and under all that slick funk it's a break-up song. Jay Kay wrote it with keyboardist Toby Smith after his split from Denise van Outen, a relationship that came apart under the strain of clashing work commitments.
Kay produced it with The Pope, who also mixed it, and the band locks in behind his vocal: Nick Fyffe on bass, Rob Harris on guitar, Derrick McKenzie on drums and Smith on keys. It topped the chart in Spain, made the Italian top two and went top five in the UK, Finland and Portugal, while in America it reached number two on Billboard's Dance Club Play chart.
