The credits on "I'm Not Alone" read like a one-man band: Calvin Harris wrote, arranged, recorded, produced and mixed it, and in 2009 it became the lead single from his second album, Ready for the Weekend. Pete Tong gave it its first spin on BBC Radio 1 that January, naming it his Essential New Tune, and the track's euphoric dance rush carried it straight into the UK Singles Chart at number one in April.

That made it the Scottish producer's first solo chart-topper, after he'd already reached the top alongside Dizzee Rascal and Chrome on "Dance wiv Me" in 2008. It had a long tail, too: in 2010 Harris picked up a writing credit on Chris Brown's "Yeah 3x" over the perceived resemblance between the two songs.
