"Never Let You Go" is a song by American rock band Third Eye Blind. It was released in January 2000 as the second single from their second album, Blue. The song peaked at number 14 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and spent three weeks at number one in Canada. It also reached number 15 in New Zealand and number six on the UK Rock Chart.

Content

Jenkins comments in the liner notes of the band's compilation album, A Collection, that it was written about a muse of his at the time (allegedly Charlize Theron), and it was written to "freak her out" when she heard it on the radio.{{citation needed|date=November 2018}}

Critical reception

Chuck Taylor, of Billboard magazine reviewed the song favorably saying that it "packs in the hooks; a compelling opening guitar riff, a celebratory party ambience, an end-of-song spoken part that kids everywhere will be reciting ad-nauseam, and lead singer/writer/co-producer Stephan Jenkins' dead-on vocals, delivered in a pleasing falsetto at times." He goes on to call the chorus "easy, spirited, memorable — the stuff that hits are made of."[1]

Music video

A music video for the song was released in January 2000, directed by Chris Hafner. In it, the band performs on a metal platform high in a sunset-filled sky. Intercepted in the sky scenes are scenes of the band eating in a dimly-lit Chinese restaurant with several girls. At one point, lead singer Stephan Jenkins hangs from the bottom the platform while his fellow bandmembers and several girls hang onto him, looking down apprehensively.
