Follow You (Bring Me the Horizon song)

"Follow You" is a song by the British rock band Bring Me the Horizon, released in 2015 as part of their fifth studio album, That's the Spirit. The song represents a significant shift in the band's sound, moving away from their earlier metalcore roots towards a more commercially accessible alternative rock style.

The song is a power ballad characterized by its prominent use of electronic elements, a simple yet effective melody, and introspective lyrics about devotion and unwavering commitment. Vocalist Oliver Sykes delivers a relatively clean vocal performance, contrasting with his signature screams that were more prevalent in their previous work.

Lyrically, "Follow You" expresses a deep sense of loyalty and unconditional love. The lyrics suggest a willingness to stand by someone regardless of their flaws or the challenges they face. This theme is reflected in the repeated line, "Can you hear me screaming 'Please don't leave me?'", which underscores the fear of abandonment and the desire for connection.

The song was generally well-received, particularly for its catchy melody and heartfelt lyrics. While some long-time fans criticized the band's stylistic shift, "Follow You" broadened Bring Me the Horizon's audience and became one of their most popular and recognizable tracks. The song has been certified platinum in several countries, indicating its commercial success.
