"Never Leave You" is a song by Tinchy Stryder, released as the fourth single from his second studio album, Catch 22 as a digital download on 2 August 2009[1] and then as a CD single on 3 August 2009.[2] The song was written by Stryder with lyrics by Taio Cruz and features guest vocals by Amelle, a former member of British girl group the Sugababes. It received airplay on radio stations in the UK including BBC 1Xtra.[3] "Never Leave You" has also reached "The A-List" on the BBC Radio 1 playlist.[4] The music video was released on Stryder's official website on 24 June 2009.[5]

The song immediately rushed into the UK and Ireland charts, charting at No. 1 in the UK and No. 2 in Ireland. It knocked the Black Eyed Peas' song "I Gotta Feeling" off the UK top spot on 2 August 2009, but failed to knock "I Gotta Feeling" off the Irish top spot, and charted behind it.
