Song
B-side"Tragedy", "Rebel On The Run", "Oriental Beat"

"Until I Get You" is a single by the Finnish rock and glam punk band Hanoi Rocks. The bands guitarist and primary songwriter Andy McCoy wrote this song at the bands manager Seppo Vesterinen's house in Helsinki. McCoy hated the song but the bands drummer Razzle loved it, and wanted it on their next record. Ultimately McCoy also fell in love with the song. The song is a kind of ballad that explains Hanoi Rocks' own melodic style very well. Also, the arrangement for the song was inspired by Alice Cooper's "I'm Eighteen".

American band L.A. Guns covered the song on their album Rips the Covers Off in 2004.
