The second single released from that album, it was more successful than the first single, "Feelin' Stronger Every Day", reaching #4 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100[1] and #1 on the Cash Box Top 100.[2] Walter Parazaider plays a soprano saxophone solo during the instrumental section while guitarist Terry Kath uses a wah-wah pedal and phase shifter on his guitar. "Just You 'n' Me" was written after a fight between Pankow and his future wife Karen:
Billboard called it one of Chicago's "best singles ever," with a "heartfelt and mature" love lyric.[4]
"Just You 'n' Me" was the final song played by Chicago AM radio station WLS before switching to a talk radio format in 1989.[5]
