But now dance music is coming back again, and the world is getting smaller and smaller because of the internet – that now sometimes you don't even have to do much promotion, although obviously it is still very important. And I've been there and it feels like the fans are starved of dance music. However, in many compilations September has released, the song has appeared on her compilations including September, Dancing in Orbit, Gold and Cry for You – The Album.Īccording to September, she explained the reason why she wanted to release it worldwide, by saying 'The song was so strong by itself. Composition and release īefore the worldwide release in 2007, September had originally recorded the song for her studio album In Orbit (2005).

In late 2018, the song regained popularity after the song was turned into a meme on Twitter, using its 'you'll never see me again' lyrics, nearly 12 years after its release. 'Cry for You' was certified Gold by the RIAA in November 2010 for sales of over 500,000 copies, making September the first Swedish artist to receive a Gold certification in the United States since Ace of Base achieved it for their song ' Cruel Summer' in 1999. In the United States, the song spent three weeks at the top spot of Billboard's Hot Dance Airplay Chart in May 2007, and became September's first and only entry so far on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at 74 in 2008.

Musically, 'Cry for You' is a dance-pop and euro-pop track, with it lyrically being about getting out of an relationship.Ĭommercially, 'Cry for You' was considered September's biggest hit to date, along with her single ' Satellites', peaking in the top ten in twelve countries, including Sweden, Ireland, and the United Kingdom, while also charting in nine different countries. The single version was also included on her third studio album Dancing Shoes (2007) as a bonus track, and it was released as a single from her various compilation albums that were released in Europe. It was released in Sweden on 29 November 2006 as the third and final single from the album.

' Cry for You', released as ' Cry for You (You'll Never See Me Again)' on Hard2Beat, is a song by Swedish singer Petra Marklund, performing as September, from her second studio album In Orbit (2005).
