"I Need My Girl" is a song written by Matt Berninger, Aaron Dessner, Bryce Dessner, Bryan Devendorf and Scott Devendorf of the American alternative rock band The National. The song was originally recorded by the band in 2013 for their sixth studio album, Trouble Will Find Me, where it appears as the tenth track. An "I Need My Girl" promotional single was released to European radio in November 2013, American radio in January 2014 and British radio in March 2014, becoming the fifth release by the band in promotion of Trouble Will Find Me. In a December 2nd concert in Vancouver, British Columbia, Berninger prefaced the performance of "I Need My Girl" with a dedication to Former US District Attorney Sally Yates, with whom he had a romantic relationship in university . Berninger jokingly admitted they parted ways based on their political worldviews - Yates' hopeful search for justice against his apathetic view of the world.
