You Bring Me Joy, is a song by Mary J. Blige. It was written by Blige, Sean "Puffy" Combs, Joel "Jo-Jo" Hailey, and Chucky Thompson for her second studio album, My Life (1994), while production was helmed by Combs and Thompson. The song is built around a sample of It's Ecstasy When You Lay Down Next to Me (1977) by singer Barry White. Due to the inclusion of the sample, Ekundayo Paris and Nelson Pigford are also credited as songwriters. You Bring Me Joy served as the third single from My Life and peaked at No. 29 on the US Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, also topping the Hot Dance Club Songs. The music video for You Bring Me Joy was directed by Marcus Raboy. It was shot at a big blue and red room from April 10–11, 1995 where Mary and other dancers do crazy dance moves.
