"Ghost of You and Me" is a 2001 single by British pop band BBMak. It appears on BBMak's debut studio album, Sooner or Later. The song peaked at number 8 on the US Adult Contemporary chart.

Background[]
The song has a tempo of 200 beats per minute.[2] It was originally recorded by Curtis Stigers for his 1995 album Time Was.
Music video[]
The music video was directed by Nigel Dick and shot in Puerto Rico.[3][4] Mark Barry, Christian Burns, and Stephen McNally sing and play guitar on the beach and walk through the streets. They are each haunted by visions of their respective ex-lovers. Later, the men sing on an outdoor stage, flanked by violin players. The women in the visions multiply into many more "ghosts", and a final aerial shot shows the group of women walking on the island, wearing white and carrying candles. The video became a mainstay on the MTV show TRL.[5]
