"I'm Not Over You" is a song by American singer-songwriter and former beauty queen CeCe Peniston, originally recorded for her second album, Thought 'Ya Knew (1994), which was released on A&M Records. The single (in the UK available only as B-side of the "Hit by Love" release) achieved number two on the Billboard Dance Club Songs chart, and number ten on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. On the Billboard Hot 100, the song charted at number forty-one. The B-side of the single included "Searchin'", which was previously released only for promotional purposes.

Critical reception

Jose F. Promis from AllMusic complimented "I'm Not Over You" as "fun, jazzy, finger-snapping R&B".[2] Larry Flick from Billboard felt that the song "hangs on a similar [to "I'm in the Mood"] funk/hip-hop tip", adding that "she flexes her nicely matured voice to good effect, gingerly weaving in and around the rugged beat and pulsating synth melody."[3] Troy J. Augusto from Cash Box wrote, "Nice follow-up here to Peniston’s last, semi-successful “In the Mood” release will more than likely top that tune chart-wise. CeCe’s powerful, accomplished vocal style and the song’s undeniable groove should go a long way in further establishing Ms. Peniston’s urban/R&B credentials." He concluded, "A star in the making, for sure."[4]

Dave Sholin from the Gavin Report wrote, "Some artists have a way with setting just the right mood. That seems to be a gift that CeCe's been blessed with, and she has no problem putting this song through its proper paces."[5] Another editor, Annette M. Lai, described it as "hip-hop and jazz-flavored", naming it one of the "outstanding tracks" of Thought 'Ya Knew.[6] Ralph Tee from Music Week's RM Dance Update concluded, "With all its infectious hooks", this track "is the stand-out cut" of the album.[7] Mike Joyce from The Washington Post felt that "I'm Not Over You" "reveals her soulfulness."[8]
