You Gotta Go There to Come Back is Stereophonics' fourth album, released on V2 in 2003. It became their third consecutive album to top the UK chart.

The album shows a newly found maturity compared to the brazenness of the previous three. After this mature and soulful album they returned to the sound of their previous albums with their next album. The title can also be explained by this statement. They had go here, and record this album, to come back and return to their old sound.

The track "Maybe Tomorrow" was the played over the credits of the Academy Award Winning movie Crash. It was also used in a season one episode of One Tree Hill and featured on the first Charmed soundtrack.
