    "So in to You" is a 1977 hit single by the Atlanta Rhythm Section. It was the first release from their sixth studio LP, A Rock and Roll Alternative.

    Background

    [edit]

    In "So in to You", the singer admits an instant and mysteriously compelling attraction to a stranger entering the room, and is unable to focus on anything else. He attempts to gain the stranger's attention, hoping that she will be able to make a personal connection and that the "vibe" he feels will be mutual. It has been rumored that the woman in real life was Leslie Hawkins, one of the "Honkettes" back-up singers of Lynyrd Skynyrd and that drummer Robert Nix was smitten with her. This has never been confirmed, however.

    Chart history

    [edit]

    The song became their greatest hit, spending three weeks at number seven on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100[2] and two weeks at number five on Cash Box. It did best in Canada, where it reached number two,[3] blocked from the top only by the Eagles' "Hotel California". "So in to You" was also an Adult Contemporary hit: it reached number 11 in the U.S. and number 12 in Canada.[4]
