"Watch Over You" is a song by American hard rock band Alter Bridge. Written by lead guitarist Mark Tremonti and lead vocalist Myles Kennedy, it was produced by Michael "Elvis" Baskette and featured on the band's 2007 second studio album Blackbird. The track was released as the second single from the album on January 14, 2008, peaking at number 19 on the US Billboard Mainstream Rock Songs chart. An alternate version of the track featuring additional vocals by Lacuna Coil singer Cristina Scabbia was also later made available as a digital download.

Promotion and release

"Watch Over You" was released as the second single from Blackbird on January 14, 2008. The song was also featured in a number of episodes of Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew, which lead to it becoming known as an "unofficial anthem" for the show.[1] The song has been performed frequently during live shows since its release; according to set list aggregation website Setlist.fm, it is the band's 12th most-frequently performed song.[2] It is usually played in a "stripped down" acoustic format,[3] often by lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist Myles Kennedy alone.[4][5]

In April 2008, an alternate version of "Watch Over You" featuring additional vocals by Lacuna Coil singer Cristina Scabbia was released as a single.[6] Speaking about the collaboration, Scabbia claimed that she was "honoured and grateful for the awesome experience".[6]

Music video

The music video for "Watch Over You" was directed by John Cummings.[7] The video contains footage from the second season of Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew, including scenes in which former Guns N' Roses drummer Steven Adler is featured. It shows Myles singing inside the warehouse. At the end of the video, he is seen outside of the warehouse.[8]

Reception

Commercial

"Watch Over You" entered the US Billboard Mainstream Rock Songs chart at number 30 for the week of February 2, 2008.[9] It peaked at number 19 four weeks later,[10] spending a total of 13 weeks on the chart.[11] It was also the first single by the band to register on the Adult Pop Songs chart, on which it spent three weeks at number 40 in early 2009.[12]

Critical

Tom Shackleford of AXS named "Watch Over You" as one of Kennedy's six best vocal performances, claiming that "The song's cooler, autumn-like feel really showcases Kennedy's singing with a beautiful, held-out chorus line before picking up and turning things up a notch as the song reaches its climax".[3]
