"Outta My Head" is a song recorded by British singer-songwriter Leona Lewis for her second studio album Echo (2009). The track was written by Savan Kotecha, Max Martin and Johan "Shellback" Schuster, and produced by the latter two. It is an electropop and Eurodance song, and its compositional structure is noticeably different from the other songs on Echo. The instrumentation consists of keyboard riffs and beats, instead of pianos and guitars which are used on the other songs. The chorus of "Outta My Head" was compared to the works of Australian singer Kylie Minogue and German singer Cascada due to its Eurodance style. It debuted and peaked at number 98 on the Slovakian Singles Chart upon the release of Echo. Lewis has performed the song on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and it was included on the set list of her debut concert tour, The Labyrinth (2010).
"Outta My Head" was written by Savan Kotecha, Max Martin and Shellback, with production done by the latter two, for Lewis's second studio album, Echo (2009). It was recorded by Ann Miniceli in Maratone Studios, and at Germano Studios, New York. She was assisted in the process by Christian Baker. It was mixed by Serban Genea at MixStar Studios in Virginia Beach, VA. The Pro Tools engineer for the mixing was John Hanes, and his assistant was Tim Roberts. "Outta My Head" is an electropop and Eurodance song which lasts for a duration of three minutes and 39 seconds; it appears as the fifth song on the standard United Kingdom track list of Echo. On the US edition, it runs for one second less and is included as the sixth track. The instrumentation of "Outta My Head" is different from the rest of the songs on Echo and does not follow the same styles of production. Instead of using pianos and guitars, it employs "stuttering keyboard riffs" and "cheap beats". The lyrics of the song contain a "F**k you!" sentiment.
