"Give Me You" is a song by American recording artist Mary J. Blige, released as the third single from her fourth album, Mary in both the U.S. and Europe.

The song outperformed both previous singles for each territory, "All That I Can Say" in the U.S. and "Deep Inside" in the UK. "Give Me You" became the second-highest charting single from the album in the UK, peaking inside the UK top 40 at number nineteen. In the U.S. "Give Me You" returned Blige to the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number sixty-eight.

In the UK, the Niño remix served as the main radio version. The Mary album was then re-released there with the Nino remix added to the track listing.

Eric Clapton plays guitar on the song.

NBA legend Michael Jordan makes a cameo in the music video.
