"I'm Gonna Get You" is a 1992 song by Bizarre Inc, featuring vocals by Angie Brown, from their second album Energique. It contains replayed lyrics from "Love's Gonna Get You" by Jocelyn Brown and a sample from "Brass Disk" by Dupree.

The song was also performed on Top of the Pops in 1992. Previously, in 1991, they had performed "Playing with Knives" and "Such a Good Feeling" on the show and the following year they performed "Took My Love".

Brown sung the song for a The Voice UK audition. Even though it brought many audience members to their feet, none of the judges turned around even though will.i.am noted that the song had inspired part of the Black Eyed Peas song "Boom Boom Pow". He said it was "one of [his] favourite songs and [he] never thought [he] would get to meet the person who sung it". He elaborated:

Why is that important to me? Because we were recording Boom Boom Pow and we were coming up with a bridge part and I was like "Fergie, have you heard this song? You have to do it like this!" I played your song for the power on that section. I never thought I was going to meet you one day.

The fact that Brown had not been selected made the audience and TV viewers furious, with one viewer branding it a "disgrace".

The single peaked at #3 on the UK Singles Chart in October 1992, #17 on the Irish Singles Chart, #158 in on the Australian ARIA singles chart, #3 on the Dutch Single Top 100 chart in January 1993, #14 on the Belgian Ultratop (Flanders region) chart in February 1993, and #47 on the Billboard Hot 100 in April 1993.
