"You to Me Are Everything" is a single by The Real Thing. Written by Ken Gold and Michael Denne and produced by Ken Gold,[1] "You to Me Are Everything" was The Real Thing's sole number-one single in the UK Singles chart, spending three weeks at the top in July 1976.[2] A remixed version of the song returned to the chart in March 1986 reaching number five.

The song was a minor hit in the U.S. where it peaked at number 64 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart and number 28 on the Billboard R&B chart.[3] One of the reasons for its lack of success in the U.S. was the flood of cover versions of the song released at the same time. American groups Broadway[4] and Revelation[5] both released versions of the song the same week, and at one point all three versions of the song appeared on Billboard Hot 100 and R&B charts. With radio and the public unable to agree on a single popular version, the three singles effectively prevented each other from becoming a hit.[citation needed]

The song was subsequently covered by Frankie Valli, Sonia, Tiny Tim, Public Enemy, Sean Maguire and Andy Abraham. In 1997, the Italian song-writer Marina Rei successfully recorded "Primavera" ("Spring"), an Italian version of "You to Me Are Everything". A fennecized version entitled "Ei enempää voi pyytää" was recorded in 1978 by Petri Pettersson.

The song was very most popular in the Philippines.
