"'Just the Way You Are'" is the debut single of Italian house group Milky. Although it did not chart in the band's home country, it was a top-10 hit in the United Kingdom, reaching number eight on the UK Singles Chart, and charted within the top 30 in Ireland, the Netherlands, New Zealand, and Romania. In the United States, the single was the first song to make its official debut at number one on the 'Billboard' Hot Dance Airplay chart on 17 October 2003, even though it reached number one on 28 September, when it was an unpublished chart.[http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/68583/billboard-bits-jack-black-dub-narcotic-milky Billboard Bits: Jack Black, Dub Narcotic, Milky] from Billboard (17 October 2003)

Content



The track features the vocals of German singer Giuditta, whose lyrical "do-do-do's" make up the song's most chorus line, with an Ibiza-influenced guitar beat, done over a pair of sampled tracks "Streets of Your Town" by the Australian pop group the Go-Betweens, and "Listen to What the Man Said" by Paul McCartney & Wings. McCartney and his late wife Linda both receive writing and production credits on the single because of the use of the song elements from "Listen", as does McLennanForster because of the "Streets" sample used.

Music video



For the song's video and promotional campaign during its chart run, Egyptian-German model Sabrina Elahl is featured in the music video instead of Giuditta.
