"Follow You" is a song by British rock band Bring Me the Horizon. Produced by keyboardist Jordan Fish and vocalist Oliver Sykes, it was featured on the band's 2015 fifth studio album That's the Spirit. The song was also released as the fifth single from the album on 26 February 2016, reaching number 95 on the UK Singles Chart and topping the UK Rock & Metal Singles Chart.

Bring Me the Horizon vocalist Oliver Sykes and keyboardist Jordan Fish originally started writing "Follow You" at around the same time as they wrote "Drown", which was released as a single in 2014. According to Sykes, the song's lyrics were based on his relationship with his wife during "a particular rough patch, when things weren't looking too good"; during a track-by-track commentary of the album for Spotify, he explained that the overarching message was that "no matter how bad being together can sometimes get, the alternative is just so much worse".

"Follow You" was first revealed in a short teaser trailer, alongside another for That's the Spirit opening track "Doomed", on 28 August 2015.Alternative Press writer Tom Bryant described it as "an emotional ballad littered with skittering electronics". Andy Biddulph of Rock Sound described it as "a love song – or the closest thing to it that this band has ever written", and as a "cross between PVRIS and Linkin Park". In a pre-release review of the album, Gigwise's Amy Gravelle noted that "Follow You" sees Sykes "pour[ing] out his heart in an emotional epilogue". It is categorized as a pop rock song with hip hop influenced beats by Emmy Mack of Music Feeds. On 26 February 2016, the track was released as a single in the form of a limited edition 7" vinyl.
