"You" is a song co-written and recorded by American country music artist Chris Young. It was released in September 2011 as the second single from his third studio album Neon. Co-written with Luke Laird, the song is about a lover being told that her charm is the only thing that affects him the most. It received mixed reviews from critics who were critical of its lackluster hook and content similar to Blake Shelton's "Honey Bee" and Jason Aldean's "Big Green Tractor". "You" was Young's fifth consecutive number-one hit on the US Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. It also became his third Top 40 hit on the Hot 100, peaking at number 34. "You" was certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), denoting sales of over one million units in the United States. It also garnered chart prominence in Canada, reaching number 66 on the Canadian Hot 100. The accompanying music video for the song, directed by Chris Hicky, was shot in black-and-white and shows Young as a gas station attendant attracting the attention of three different women in various colored clothing.
