"You" also known as "Fuck You" is a song by American rock band Candlebox and the second single from their eponymous debut album. It is one of the band's most well known songs, peaking at #78 on the Billboard Hot 100. It also reached #6 and #18, on the Billboard Album Rock Tracks and Modern Rock Tracks charts, respectively. "You" was included on The Best of Candlebox in 2006. It was also featured in the 1996 film Foxfire and appears on its soundtrack album.
There are two versions to the "You" video. One was directed by Samuel Bayer and shows a live performance of the band in a studio with various dark imagery. This is the studio version of the song. The second version is a live performance cut into a music video format. It is very similar to Pearl Jam's "Even Flow" video. The audio is noticeably heavier as are Kevin Martin's vocals.
