"Thinkin' About You" is a song performed by American R&B singer-songwriter Mario. It was written by Rico Love and produced by The Runners and The Monarch. It was released on September 4, 2009 as the second single from his fourth studio album D.N.A..

The song debuted on the U.S. Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, at number 96. Since then, have reached number 45 on the charts.

Initially Mario told his fans through his video blog that "Stranded" would be released as his second single. However it was then reported that "Thinkin' About You" would be released instead and was set to feature additional vocals from Diddy. A version of the song featuring Ace Hood leaked online which was quickly dubbed the official demo for the Diddy version. When the song finally premiered on US radio on September fourth it featured just Mario's vocals and confirmed that neither Diddy nor Ace Hood would appear on the song. Later, the version with Diddy leaked on the internet.

The version with Diddy was a remix. Other remixes leaked to the internet featuring Kelly Rowland and Ace Hood.

A reviewer for music website Djbooth.net said, "With the follow-up single, the singer reaches out to fans of his more traditional R&B balladry in addition to the club crowd" also, he adds "As if Mario’s Trey Songz-esque vocals and Rico Love‘s songwriting weren’t enough to sweep this female off her feet, The Runners heighten the ambiance yet further with a steamy, synth-packed instrumental".

Mario confirmed via his official Twitter page that he will be shooting the video in London on September 27, 2009. The video was directed by Chris Robinson. RichGirl's Audra Simmons is the lead girl in the video.
