"You Are My Joy" comes from Son of Evil Reindeer, the second album from the Reindeer Section, a Scottish indie rock supergroup, which came out in June 2002. Gary Lightbody wrote the words and shares the music credit with the collective, and he had the album's songs finished by January of that year, ahead of the February sessions that put them on tape.
The song had a life beyond the supergroup, too. Snow Patrol taped a live version on 8 August 2004, filmed for their Live at Somerset House DVD, and that recording later backed their single "How to Be Dead" and landed on the 2009 compilation Up to Now.
