"I Drive Myself Crazy" is the fourth and final single released from *NSYNC's Europe/US self-titled debut album. It is notable for being the one of the only songs where anyone other than Justin Timberlake and JC Chasez sang lead in - Chris Kirkpatrick sang in the beginning. This single did not fare as well on the charts as the previous ones.

This single is included on Totally Hits 2. It's also on 'N Sync's The Winter Album as "Thinking of You (I Drive Myself Crazy)" and on Greatest Hits.

[edit] Music video

The video, directed by Tim Story[1], shows the boys in an asylum. The viewer gets to see each man's torment as he remembers the girl who put him there (Chasez sees the girl who cheated on him on TV, Kirkpatrick sees visions of his girlfriend walking past him.) Each 'N Syncer came up with his own storyline. At the end the five are released, and the girls are shown being brought to the asylum instead, as the group run off to freedom.
