You Forgot It in People is a 2002 album by Broken Social Scene. It followed Feel Good Lost, and was the band's commercial and artistic breakthrough. You Forgot It in People features intricate, experimental production techniques and a large number of instruments coinciding with the band's vastly expanded size.
Music videos were made for a number of tracks, including singles "Stars and Sons", "Almost Crimes", "Pitter Patter Goes My Heart", and "Cause = Time". The album also features "Anthems for a Seventeen Year-Old Girl" and "Lover's Spit", two songs that went on to become the band's biggest "fan favorites."
Many of the songs that didn't make it onto the album were featured in a B-sides compilation titled Bee Hives, released in 2004.

It won the Juno Award for Alternative Album of the Year in 2003.
