"Thinking About You" is the first single from Norah Jones' third solo album, "Not Too Late" (2007). Jones wrote "Thinking About You" in 1999 with Ilhan Ersahin, her then-bandmate in Wax Poetic. She said the song had "always been in the back of my mind", but she thought it was too much of a pop song for her and preferred if someone else were to record it. She recorded a version of it for her second album, "Feels like Home" (2004), but according to her it sounded "too country-rock". She "found a way to make it work" during the recording of "Not Too Late".

The music video, directed by Ace Norton, was filmed on a soundstage at Steiner Studios in Brooklyn, New York with a cast of only eight people, including Jones. According to videostatic.com, it contains elements from some of Norton's previous videos — for Peter Walker's "What Do I Know" (the "within the within" effect), Death Cab for Cutie's "Someday You Will Be Loved" (the animated heart) and Death Cab for Cutie's "Crooked Teeth" (the Claymation). The video premiered on December 19 2006. [Napolitano, Meredith. [http://www.dailyrecord.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070126/MCTV/701260373/1004/LIFE "Video vision"] . "Daily Record".
