Wikipedia article
"'In Case You Didn't Know'" is a song recorded by American country pop singer Brett Young and co-written by Young, Trent Tomlinson, Tyler Reeve, and Kyle Schlienger. It was released to radio on January 9, 2017 as the second single from his debut self-titled album (2017). The song has been certified 3 Platinum by the RIAA, the first song by Young to receive a Platinum certification.
The song was written in 2016 during a working trip to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Young co-wrote the song at the retreat with Tyler Reeve, Kyle Schlienger, and Trent Tomlinson. According to Young, the inspiration for the song came from a story told by Peters about his wife Brandy: "[Peters] said when he was a kid, his mom would not be the type to say "I love you" but he seemed to always know it in some way. Peters married his wife in March 1998 and he wanted to show his love for her by co writing this song."
In 2017, Young released a duet version of the song with Irish singer Una Healy.

Music video
The music video was directed by Jennifer Rothlein.
Young climbs out of the back of a taxi cab and, after a few backstage shots, performs the song to an empty Tivoli Theatre consisting of only his desired woman in the audience (played by Sara Morgan). She soon disappears, however, and the video ends as Young walks out the front doors of the theatre and down the sidewalk into the distance.
