"Talkin' to Me" is an R&B song written and produced by Rich Harrison for American singer-songwriter Amerie's debut album, All I Have (2002). Released as the album's second and final single in 2003, it debuted at number twenty-two on the Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles in early November 2002, entering the main chart at number seventy five weeks later and peaking at fifty-one in its fourth week. It also peaked at number eighteen on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs in early October 2002, having previously debuted at number twenty-three on the Bubbling Under R&B/Hip-Hop Singles. The single was not released outside the U.S., thus not being able to chart elsewhere. A promotional single was to be released as a double A-side with "I'm Coming Out", but it never came to surface, as the commercial release came for "I'm Coming Out"—instead, the song was released as a double A-side with the All I Have track "I Just Died". A remix of "Talkin' to Me" by the production duo Trackmasters featuring rapper Foxy Brown exists.
