"You Go Your Way" is a song by English singer Perrie. It was released on 4 October 2024, through Columbia Records. The single debuted at number fifty-two on the UK Singles Chart and charted for one week.

## Background

Joy Anonymous originally self-published a version of the song in 2020 under the title "Joy (Get Over Me)", but it has since been removed from all digital platforms after being sold to Edwards' label Columbia Records.
Edwards teased her single's release date on 16 September 2024, after a clip was uploaded onto her social media pages, where fans had to decode the caption. On 20 September 2024, she revealed its artwork, release date and the song was released on 4 October 2024. On 26 September 2024, she shared a clip from the song.

## Composition and lyrics

The song was written by Henry Counsell and Alfie Russel, and produced by Russel and Joy Anonymous when the song was originally released in 2020.
Edwards' version contains additional rewriting by her, with inspiration based on a prior conversation Edwards had with her fiancé English footballer Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain when they first started dating in November 2016. She recalled telling him she would not pressure him into committing to her and suggested they both focus on their own paths first and see what happens next.

## Music video

The music video of the song was directed by Charlie Di Placido and produced by Matt Craig. The video was filmed at Ace Cafe, North West London. It was released along with the single.

On 4 October 2024, "You Go Your Way" received its first performance on The Graham Norton Show.
