"Thinking of You" is a song by American duo Loggins and Messina. It was released in 1973 as the second single from their second album, Loggins and Messina. The uptempo rendition released on the single is different from the somewhat more mellow LP mix.
"Thinking of You" reached number 18 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and number 11 on the Cash Box Top 100. It reached number 20 in Canada.
The song was a bigger Adult Contemporary hit, reaching number seven in the U.S. and number 16 in Canada. The track speaks of the essence of partnership, and of the joy found while spending time in each other's company.
It is unclear if it is Garth or Clarke who overdubbed the recorder.
