"Seven Days in Sunny June" is the second single to be taken from Jamiroquai's 2005 album, Dynamite. Written by lead singer Jay Kay and new keyboardist Matt Johnson, the track is considered to be a throwback to the old acid jazz sound upon which Jamiroquai made its name. The song is, in effect, a tale of unrequited love and the ever-lasting problem that afflicts all men--having to deal with a woman that doesn't return the affections you give her.

The song bowed in August 2005 at No. 14 on the UK charts, running in line with previous second singles of past albums. The song was also used in the soundtrack for the film The Devil Wears Prada.
