'Fifty Shades of Grey' Soundtrack Gets Latest Sizzling Single from Skylar Grey: Listen to "I Know You"

The release of the hotly anticipated Fifty Shades of Grey movie may be 10 days away (not like we're counting), but fans of the hit novel series can get a little taste of what's in store via the film's soundtrack. Following the release of new songs from The Weeknd, Ellie Goulding and Beyoncé, today (Feb 3), a new song from the movie has been released: Skylar Grey's emotional "I Know You."

Following the example of The Weeknd and Goulding, Grey plays up the emotion in "I Know You," a mid-tempo piano ballad with a pulsing beat, yearning lyrics and dripping, high vocals from the "Coming Home" singer.

"I Know You" starts with a sweeping, soft string of piano chords before Grey blasts above her instrument of choice. With a soothing melody, she takes the perspective of a hesitant lover, recalling the steamy story between Anastasia Steele and Christian Grey.

"I have been patient, but slowly I'm losing faith / So, please / I know you, baby / I know you, baby," Grey sings in the chorus, with a small, whispered voice that's full of raw emotion and vulnerability. Add in some strings, and you have an emotional pull of the strings perfectly fitting for Fifty Shades of Grey.

"I Know You" is the latest song to be unveiled from the soundtrack to the scandalizing new movie Fifty Shades of Grey. Grey will appear on the soundtrack alongside The Weeknd, Ellie Goulding, Beyoncé and more. The Fifty Shades of Grey soundtrack will be out on Feb. 10 with the movie following on Feb. 13.
