In 1982 38 Special released "Caught Up in You" as the first single from their album Special Forces. It was the Jacksonville, Florida band's first number one on the Billboard rock Top Tracks chart.
Don Barnes sang lead. The song also reached number 10 on the Billboard Hot 100, one of the band's two top 10 pop hits. The other, "Second Chance", reached number six in 1989. In Canada, "Caught Up in You" peaked at number nine on the RPM singles chart.
It can be heard at the end of the Squidbillies episode "Burned and Reburned Again".
Caught Up in You runs at 131 BPM, the tempo of techno, trance and big-room dance. In classical terms it sits in allegro territory. A bar of 4/4 lasts 1.83 seconds, and a quarter-note delay is 458 ms. It is in E major, Camelot 12B, which shares its notes with C# minor and mixes cleanly with A major and B major.
