"I Got You" is a song by American singer Bebe Rexha from her second extended play (EP) All Your Fault: Pt. 1 (2017), and debut studio album Expectations (2018). It was released on October 28, 2016, as the lead single from the EP. ^[2] The track was produced by production team Captain Cuts, and was also featured in a commercial for the Galaxy S21 FE.

Composition

"I Got You" is a electronica song ^[1] written in the key of A minor in common time with a tempo of 98 beats per minute. Most of the song follows a chord progression of Am-C-F-G-Am. The bridge follows a sequence of F-C-G-F-C-G-Dm-Em-F. ^[3]

Music video

The accompanying music video for "I Got You" was directed by Dave Meyers, and was released on January 6, 2017. It features scenes of Rexha dancing in a desert setting ^[4] wearing outfits that drew comparisons to Kylie Jenner by Billboard . ^[5]

Prior to the version that was released officially, Rexha filmed an alternate music video for the song that was scrapped due to its explicit content. She told a radio DJ, "It was actually too sexual so I had to get rid of it. It was too much," explaining further, "I have young fans. I like to be sexy 'cause I'm a woman now, but I still want to be a good role model." ^[6]

Live performances

The singer performed the song for the first time at the MTV Europe Music Awards on November 6, 2016. ^[7] On January 13, 2017, she performed "I Got You" on Good Morning America along with her previous single "In the Name of Love". ^[8] On January 16, 2017, she performed "I Got You" on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon , ^[9] on February 16, 2017, on Late Night with Seth Meyers , on February 17, 2017, on Live with Kelly and on February 22, 2017, along with the song "Say My Name" originally by Destiny's Child on The Late Late Show with James Corden . ^{[10] [11] [12]}
