"My Arms Keep Missing You" is a song by Rick Astley released in 1987 as the second half of a double A-side single. The first A-side is the pop standard "When I Fall in Love". "My Arms Keep Missing You" was released as an independent single in Germany and reached number 6. The song's first appearance on an album was the 2002 compilation Greatest Hits, and it later appeared on the 2010 expanded version of Hold Me in Your Arms as a bonus track. The track also appeared on the remastered edition of Whenever You Need Somebody, which was released on 20 May 2022.[1] In addition, a digital EP was released on 13 April 2022, including the single and its remixes.[2] This track has been featured in the limited edition 12" double A-side Red Vinyl album of Love This Christmas of 4000 copies. A-side includes When I Fall in Love and Love This Christmas, B-side includes My Arms Keep Missing You.[3]
In a review published in Smash Hits, Lola Borg considered "My Arms Keep Missing You" as "truly splendid", adding that Astley "gears himself into shuffly dance mode and sounds exactly like himself".[4]
In 2006, Danzel Vs. DJ F.R.A.N.K. covered "My Arms Keep Missing You" and released it as a single available as 12" maxi. It charted for ten weeks on the Ultratop Belgian (Flanders) Chart and peaked at number 15.[12]

^The exact peak position in Spain is unknown. The single reached at least number 7, as Music & Media provided the single's ranking only for that week, but it did not reach the top three, given every week by the magazine.
