Drive is a song by American actor and singer Cheyenne Jackson from his album I'm Blue, Skies. Although Jackson has produced theatrical music releases, this was his first non-theatrical single. Drive was produced by Thomas "Tawgs" Salter and written by Jackson and Stephen "Stevie" Aiello. The song was also featured on Jackson's first-ever music video.[1]
Jackson has discussed the meaning of the song:
I wanted to write a song about keeping forward momentum in your life, and having the strength to leave a situation that you know in your heart is bad for you. It ended up being melancholy, but ultimately hopeful and optimistic, just like me. I felt like my head was exploding, because not only did I know that this was exactly what I was supposed to be doing, it kind of changed my perspective on everything. The songs started pouring out of me, and I’m more proud of this work than any part I’ve ever done.[2]
Drive was also remixed by Conair and appears as an additional 6:47 track on Jackson's album I'm Blue, Skies as "Drive (Conair mix)".
