"Drive You Mad" is a song recorded by Australian singer-songwriter Amy Shark. It was released on 14 July 2017 as the third and final single from her extended play Night Thinker. Shark said "Drive You Mad" is her favourite song off the EP.[2]
Shark explains the song "It was a realisation I had of me as a person. A bit of me acknowledging to people close to me that I know I'm not easy, I'm not the easiest daughter or friend or wife, I know I'm hard work. Hence the "drive you mad". It's like an ode to them."[3]
In August 2017 Shark explained "I remember the particular day I wrote "Drive You Mad" was a real self-help day. I was looking at myself going, “wow, you’re being a real bitch to everyone,” – you know when you take a real hard look at yourself? There were so many arguments, and one day I was like, “I probably was a bit harsh there... I was just having this big realisation of how [imperfect] I am as a human, and I don’t know, it just sort of came out as "Drive You Mad"."[4]
