You Got It

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

For the 1977 song "You Got It" by Diana Ross, see Baby It's Me.

"You Got It" is a song and single from Roy Orbison's 1988 album, Mystery Girl. The song reached #9 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the spring of 1989, several months after Orbison's death of a heart attack at age 52 and made the top 5 in the United Kingdom. It was his last hit single in his homeland, but "I Drove All Night" also made the UK Top 5 in 1992. In the United States, the song became a hit again in 1995 when Bonnie Raitt recorded a version for the soundtrack of the film Boys on the Side.

• At an awards ceremony in Antwerp, a few days before his death, Orbison gave his only public rendition of the hit, to the applause of a huge crowd.

• "You Got It" is frequently mistaken for a Traveling Wilburys song, due to the involvement of Jeff Lynne and Tom Petty.

• "You Got It" was also an advertising slogan used by Burger King. The commercials featured Customers asking BK staff for something on the menu, each time the staff member would answer "You Got It!". The commercial ended with the jingle "You want it your way at BK ... You Got It!
