"Hands on Me" is a song by American singer Jason Derulo, featuring American singer-songwriter Meghan Trainor, included on the former's fifth studio album, Nu King (2024). They wrote the song with J Bach, Sarah Solovay, Shawn Charles, and the producers, Elof and Pink Slip, with Ben E. King, Jerry Leiber, and Mike Stoller receiving credits due to the interpolation of "Stand by Me" (1961). Atlantic Records released it as a single on October 13, 2023. A doo-wop song in the style of Trainor's usual music, it describes a romance between Derulo and his neighbor as he invites her over to his house.
Music critics were negative about the interpolation, as well as the production and lyrics of "Hands on Me". The song reached number 20 on the New Zealand Hot Singles chart, number 24 in Croatia, and number 121 on the South Korea BGM chart. The accompanying music video features an appearance by Paris Hilton, and it depicts Derulo and Trainor adapting to living on a farm. Derulo performed a medley of the song with his 2020 single "Take You Dancing" at the season 18 finale of America's Got Talent. The song was reprised on his 2024 concert tour, the Nu King World Tour.
