"When you" target="_blank">You Tell me" target="_blank">Me That you" target="_blank">You Love me" target="_blank">Me" is a song by American singer Diana Ross, released on August 20, 1991 as the lead single from her nineteenth studio album, The Force Behind the Power (1991). The song was released on the Motown label in the United States and by EMI Records in the United Kingdom. It was written by Albert Hammond and John Bettis, and produced by Peter Asher. A sentimental ballad, it became the album's biggest hit, peaking at number 37 on the US Billboard R&B singles chart and number two on the UK Singles Chart. Ross considers it one of her signature songs and it was subsequently covered by various artists. The UK release of "When you" target="_blank">You Tell me" target="_blank">Me That you" target="_blank">You Love me" target="_blank">Me" included her 1985 hit "Chain Reaction".
Critical reception
Larry Flick from Billboard described the song as "a dramatically produced power ballad. Gratefully, track is less trend-conscious than Ross's more recent efforts, though this is far from her strongest work. Regardless, diehard fans will love it—as will AC radio programmers." Henderson and DeVaney from Cashbox called it a "highly commercial pop ballad" and a "slick single". In the review of the album, the magazine declared it as a "potential hit" and a "dramatic ballad". Jan DeKnock from Chicago Tribune named it the album's "strongest ballad". A reviewer from Liverpool Echo wrote, "And while Diana Ross's voice couldn't be more different, this track does have some of that radio-friendly style. It starts like a sophisticated ballad, with quiet piano and voice. and builds into an emotional climax, complete with a bit of rock guitar. It's perfectly produced and perfectly predictable." Connie Johnson from Los Angeles Times viewed it as "a gorgeously gushy ballad that’s perfect for Ross’ theatrical delivery. Peter Asher had a hand in producing this track, on which Ross manages to appear unpretentious and guilelessly sweet." Newcastle Evening Chronicle remarked the singer's "romantic mood" on the song. Stephen Holden from New York Times felt it "strongly echoes the sentiments" of "Wind Beneath My Wings".
Music video
The single's accompanying music video featured scenes of Ross in an evening gown singing on stage intercut with home video footage of Ross with her two sons Ross & Evan.

Release history
Julio Iglesias versions
= With Dolly Parton
=The song was recorded in a duet form by American singer Dolly Parton and Spanish singer Julio Iglesias for the latter's 1994 album Crazy. A single was released in 1994 which managed to chart in the Netherlands for three weeks: entering at position 48, peaking at 45, and in its final week charting at number 49. Parton included this song on her 4-disc compilation box set, The Tour Collection.
Critical reception
Fell and Rufer from the Gavin Report wrote, "It's hard to beat the box office combo of a ladies' man and a man's woman. Julio and Dolly get the David Foster treatment with an expensive sounding arrangement worthy of such stars."
Music video
The accompanying music video was directed by John Hopgood, and was filmed for the single at Oheka Castle on Long Island's north shore. The sepia-toned clip features Iglesias and Parton singing in separate rooms and a love scene involving a younger couple. At the end of the video Parton and Iglesias are shown leaving the castle. Parton having changed from a white nightgown into a black cocktail dress.
