"You Belong" is the second single from the eponymous debut album by Hercules and Love Affair. It features Nomi Ruiz with backing vocals by Antony Hegarty. Critical reception Philip Sherburne of Pitchfork Media commented that "it's the way that Butler and his collaborators mold formalist fidelity into something stranger that makes the track really sing," and that the "chords give it the quality of an exploding rainbow." NME said that the song "is superb, but it’s essentially just an old Chicago house tune given a digital spit’n’polish." Slant Magazine placed "You Belong" at #9 on the Top 25 Singles of 2008. Music video The music video for "You Belong" features Nomi Ruiz singing to the lyrics while several background dancers are voguing.
