"I'm with You" is a song written by The Matrix (Scott Spock, Lauren Christy, Graham Edwards) and Canadian singer Avril Lavigne for Lavigne's debut album, Let Go. The protagonist of this ballad, produced by The Matrix, sings: "Take me by the hand, take me somewhere new. I don't know who you are but I... I'm with you..."
It was released as the album's third single in 2002 (see 2002 in music) and 2003 (see 2003 in music). It reached number one in Canada and Mexico, the top five on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 (Lavigne's third single to reach the top ten) and the top ten in the United Kingdom. "I'm with You" received radio and television airplay in Australia, but was not released there so that sales of the album Let Go would increase. The single's video involves Lavigne, who is seen alone, trying to find someone. Most of the video is in slow motion but Lavigne's mouth movements are in sync with the song's vocals. This was achieved by recording the footage while the song was played twice as fast.
