A publicist requested ‘Single of the Week’ for this tune. Just for the record, you can’t ask for that illustrious position. It is thoughtfully and independently determined by me and my council of split personalities after a lengthy deliberation of approximately ten seconds. It is a random and inconsistent process reflecting nothing but my personal taste. Now I Want You is a good pop track, sunny and lush with a kicking disco chorus, but do its yacht rocking beats and reverberating synth keys give the council of one shivers? They do not. The council is vaguely amused but generally unmoved.
