"Do You" is a 2007 single by singer and songwriter Ne-Yo. It is about Ne-Yo questioning his ex-girlfriend if she ever thinks about him anymore. It is the second single from his second album, Because of You. The single was officially released to radio the week of June 12, 2007. In an interview with BET, Ne-Yo said that "Do You" is the second part to his song "So Sick" from his debut album, In My Own Words. The remix of the song has surfaced featuring Mary J. Blige. Another remix featuring Utada was released digitally in Japan on November 21, 2007 as 7th English single (27th single overall).
"Do You" was released on July 30 in UK as a download only single, despite receiving more video play than follow-up single "Can We Chill" (which received a physical release), resulting in a lower chart position of number one-hundred there, his lowest charting single.[1]
Ne-Yo premiered "Do You" on BET's Access Granted on May 23, 2007.

[edit] Music video
First Ne-Yo is seen in a car fighting with his ex-girlfriend, who then leaves the car. Ne-Yo is trying to write a letter to his ex, asking if she remembers him. It is seemingly difficult, as he crumples up paper and throws them away. His ex is then shown on a couch kissing her new boyfriend, and lying on his lap, at the same time distant. Ne-Yo then remembers a memory where he is kissing his ex on the same couch. Ne-Yo is then driving and stops at a pay phone, and calls his ex to come to the pay phone. But by the time she arrives, he has already left. She holds the phone to her heart, and in gray there is a small dream where she arrives to the pay phone and Ne-Yo is there, and the two begin making out. Scenes of Ne-Yo in an apartment and on top of a building are woven into the video.
