I Want You Back
 

 Written & Sung: S. Ross & L. Buckingham; Guitar, Keyboards: L. Buckingham

[Stephen in green; Lindsey in red; Together in blue]

 We run around in circles
Like a dog without a home
Since you went and left me
I'm lonely to the bone

I want you back
(I want you)
I want you back again
I want you back
(I want you)
I want you back again

Sitting right behind me
Is a girl I know
She puttered 'round the palace
And kept men on their toes

I want you back
(I want you)
I want you back again
I want you back
(I want you)
I want you back again
I want you back
(I want you)
I want you back again
I want you back
(I want you)
I want you back again
I want you back

I want you back
I want you back
I want you back
I want you back
I want you back
I want you back
I want you back...

WEBMISTRESS speculates:

Lindsey spends the verses harmonizing with Ross, but sings most of the chorus, so I guess, if you stretch, it's a duet. There, Lindsey's background vocals sound eerily like they were lifted from his song I Want You!

 

SCOTT speculates:

Though Ross co-wrote the song, I believe Lindsey does all of the vocals. If you think Ross is the near falsetto high parts, list to how the word "again" is sung, clearly the Buckingham accent is heard. Great little pop tune that reminds me a bit of "Can't Go Back".
