I Miss You (Klymaxx song)

"I Miss You" is a hit single recorded by American R&B and pop band Klymaxx from their fourth album, Meeting in the Ladies Room (1984). Written and co-produced by Klymaxx keyboardist Lynn Malsby, the song was recorded and released as the album's third single. "I Miss You" eventually reached number 11 on the US Billboard R&B chart, number 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, and number 3 on the Billboard adult contemporary chart.

Despite peaking at #5 on the Hot 100, the song had staying power on the charts, and it ended up being the third biggest song on the year-end Billboard chart for 1986. The success of this song helped the group's Meeting in the Ladies Room album reach Platinum status.
