You're Living All Over Me is the second album by the American alternative rock band Dinosaur Jr, released in 1987 on SST Records. The album was named after a line uttered by frontman J. Mascis while on tour with the band.[1]

In 2005, it was ranked 31 in Spin's "100 Greatest Albums, 1985-2005". "Poledo" is unique from the rest of the album in that half of it is a lo-fi recording of Lou Barlow singing and playing ukulele, much like his own group Sebadoh, while the other half is a collection of sound collages and abstract noise pieces.

In 2005 the album was performed live in its entirety as part of the All Tomorrow's Parties-curated Don't Look Back series.
