"You" is the opening song on Pablo Honey by Radiohead. it is notable for being an early favorite among Radiohead fans, and was last played in 2002.

[edit] Musical structure
The song is unusual in that its time signature contains three measures in 6/8 followed by one measure in 5/8, giving it an unusual feel, a technique which Radiohead would later explore further on Kid A and Amnesiac. The lyrics reveal that it is an obssesive love song.
