"You're My Sunshine" (stylized as "You're my sunshine") is the sixth single by Japanese singer Namie Amuro. It was released on June 5, 1996, by Avex Trax and was produced by Tetsuya Komuro. The song was the image song for the Bristol-Myers Squibb (now Fine Today) "Sea Breeze '96" commercial in which she appeared. The version used in the initial commercial had a different tempo and tune from the CD package version. The following year, Amuro appeared in another "Sea Breeze" commercial, this time with her hit song "How to Be a Girl".

Commercially, "You're My Sunshine" was a success, becoming her third consecutive single to debut at #1 and sell over a million copies nationwide. Amuro promoted the single with several television performances throughout 1996. Since its release, the song has been included on the set list of several concert tours by Amuro. The song was also featured in the 1997 video game Digital Dance Mix Vol. 1 Namie Amuro for the Sega Saturn.
