"Me & You Together Song" is a song by English band the 1975 from their fourth studio album, "Notes on a Conditional Form". The song was released on 16 January 2020 through Dirty Hit and Polydor Records as the third single from the album. It was written by band members George Daniel, Matthew Healy, Adam Hann and Ross MacDonald. Production of the song was handled by Daniel and Healy alongside Jonathan Gilmore. Inspired by Amy Watson, Chelsea Pollard and the idealism of a teenage romance, Healy conceived the song as part of the soundtrack to German, a film he planned on creating. Although the film did not come to fruition, the 1975 continued to work on the song, channeling the sound of their former band Drive Like I Do.
"Me & You Together Song" is a melancholic and sonically nihilistic dream pop and pop rock power ballad produced in a retro style that emulates rock music in the 1990s and early 2000s. It has a nostalgic soft rock instrumentation, composed of echoing, jangly pop rock guitars, dreamy guitar riffs, rumbling bass, clanging keyboards and bouncy, thunderous drums. The song's lyrics detail Healy's unrequited love for a female friend, describing the stages and moments that led to his lifelong affection for her. Thematically, it explores unrequited affection, rejection and heartbreak. The song's composition and lyrics drew comparisons to the soundtracks of 1990s romantic comedy films, Blink-182, Hanson, the Goo Goo Dolls and the New Radicals.
