Don't You Want Me (Extended Dance Mix)

Human League · Original Remixes and Rarities [2005]

You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar

When I met you

I picked you out, I shook you up

And turned you around

Turned you into someone new

Now five years later on you've got the world at your feet

Success has been so easy for you

But don't forget it's me who put you where you are now

And I can put you back down too.



Don't, don't you want me?

You know I can't believe it when I hear that you won't see me

Don't, don't you want me?

You know I don't believe you when you say that you don't need me



It's much too late to find

When you think you've changed your mind

You'd better change it back or we will both be sorry



Don't you want me, baby?

Don't you want me? Oh!

Don't you want me, baby?

Don't you want me? Oh!



I was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar

That much is true

But even then I knew I'd find a much better place

Either with or without you

The five years we have had have been such good at times

I still love you

But now I think it's time I lived my life on my own

I guess it's just what I must do



Don't, don't you want me?

You know I can't believe it when I hear that you won't see me

Don't, don't you want me?

You know I don't believe you when you say that you don't need me



It's much too late to find

When you think you've changed your mind

You'd better change it back or we will both be sorry



Don't you want me, baby?

Don't you want me? Oh!

Don't you want me, baby?

Don't you want me? Oh!



Don't you want me, baby?

Don't you want me, baby?

Don't you want me, baby?

Don't you want me, baby?

Don't you want me,

Dont, don't you want me?

Don't you want me baby?

Don't you want me? Oh!

Don't you want me, baby?

Don't you want me? Oh!

Don't you want me, baby?

Don't you want me? Oh!

Don't you want me,

Don't, don't you want me?

Don't you want me, baby?

Don't you want me? Oh!

Don't you want me, baby?

Don't you want me? Oh!

Don't You Want Me (Extended Dance Mix)

This extended dance mix of Human League's iconic 1981 hit reimagines the synth-pop classic for a club environment, showcasing the group's pioneering role in blending electronic instrumentation with pop sensibilities. Originally released as a single, the track remains a cornerstone of the new wave genre, characterized by its driving bassline and memorable chorus. The version found on Original Remixes and Rarities [2005] highlights the band's commitment to expanding their sound beyond the original studio recording, offering a rhythmic intensity that defined early dance music. Human League's work with the sequencer and synthesizer set a template for future electronic acts, cementing their legacy as innovators who bridged the gap between rock and digital soundscapes during the early 1980s.
