I Want You Back

About I Want You Back

"I Want You Back" is the fourth single released by Australian rock group Hoodoo Gurus from their debut album Stoneage Romeos. It was released on Big Time Records (distributed by EMI) in March 1984 (the same time as the album). "I Want You Back" was written by Dave Faulkner. Its B-side, "Who Do You Love?" (a.k.a. "Hoodoo You Love?") was recorded live at 2JJJ. The single was released in the United Kingdom in 1984 by Demon Records, but with an alternative B-side, "Be My Guru". The 7" single and video clip version of the song is an edit that removes the second half of the double verse usually heard before the first chorus. To date the regular album version has been used on all subsequent Hoodoo Gurus compilations. more »

I can still recall the time
She said she was always mine
Then she left (as people do,)
And forgets what we've been through
(Does this sound familiar to you ?)
It's not that she's gone away
It's the things I hear she has got to say
About me - and about my friends
When we've got no defence.

That's her: I'll never believe her again.
She might have deceived all my friends
I know they will see in the end
What it all means when she says (Yeah!)
I want you back (She says)

But what's worse: She thinks it's true
But that's just her (She always was a little bit confused!)
She's not worth the time I had to lose.
