Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox song "I'd Die Without You" is a song by American R&B duo P.M. Dawn, first appearing on the soundtrack of the 1992 film Boomerang, starring Eddie Murphy, and was one of several songs to chart from the album. Later, the song was released on the duo's second album, The Bliss Album...? (1993), as well as on their 2000 greatest hits collection, The Best of P.M. Dawn.

"I'd Die Without You" was released in September 1992 as the third single from the Boomerang soundtrack. It peaked at number three on the US Billboard Hot 100 and number two on the Billboard Top 40/Mainstream and Top 40/Rhythm-Crossover charts in 1992. The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) awarded the song a gold certification in November 1992 for selling over 500,000 copies. Internationally, the single peaked at number 10 in Canada and reached the top 50 in Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom.

Critical reception

Connie Johnson from Los Angeles Times named "I'd Die Without You" one of the group's "best tracks", noting that it "reveal a gentle, emotional-guy sensitivity". Steve Sutherland from NME wrote, "There's a move tie-in here (Boomerang, the new Eddie Murphy) so there's every chance 'I'd Die Without You' will be a hit. Deserves it, anyway. It's cool. Gossamer, slinky, focused, unfussed — what a treat to hear a song that takes its time and doesn't give a toss for the bpms and the clubs. What a treat to hear an understated vocal." An editor from People Magazine described the song as "soulful" and "exquisite".
