You Turn Me On is the fifth album by lo-fi/indie rock band Beat Happening, released in 1992. It is often considered as their strongest and most mature record and was described by All Music Guide as "a masterpiece". In comparison with their earlier work, it showcases more lush and polished sound: for example, the 7th track, "Godsend", described by AMG as "the LP's heart and soul", runs about 9 minutes in length and features Beat Happening's first use of multitrack recording with multilayered vocals. The album was produced by from influential Welsh post-punk/indie pop band Young Marble Giants.
