I Could Use Another You is the fifth studio album by American country music singer Eddy Raven. It was released by RCA Records in June 1984. The album contains the singles "I Got Mexico", "I Could Use Another You", and "She's Gonna Win Your Heart".
The album was one of the first production credits for Paul Worley, then primarily known for his work as a session guitarist.[1] The album accounted for three singles on the Hot Country Songs charts: "I Got Mexico", which was Raven's first number 1 hit there, followed by the title track and "She's Gonna Win Your Heart".[2]
Cash Box magazine described the title track as "an upbeat tune stressing Raven’s clear, distinct vocals."[3] Writing for Stereo Review magazine (now known as Sound & Vision), Alanna Nash noted that while it had fewer songs written by Raven and a "slightly more mainstream" sound than its predecessors, the album was "well up to his own high standards", while also considering Raven's singing more upbeat and confident than on previous efforts.[4]
