Useful detail

Performance tip

Before performing Drivin' Me Wild, practice the word-heavy passages slowly, then bring them back to track speed without clipping consonants. Rehearse that transition in Drivin' Me Wild before worrying about stage movement.

Recommendation

Should you sing it?

With Drivin' Me Wild, do not count on the room to do the work; it is better for a singer ready to own the lyric’s point of view. The song has some repeated lines to anchor the arrangement and a dense lyric flow. Plan to carry the verses yourself; this is not rated as a dependable full-room singalong.
