Interesting facts and trivia about Want to Want Me. By Songfacts®.

The first single from Jason Derulo's fourth full-length album finds him unable to erase a girl from his mind as he lies awake at night. So obsessed is the singer that he flops out of bed and hops into a cab so that he can be with her: Girl you're the one I want to want me And if you want me, girl you got me There's nothing I, no nothing I wouldn't do Just to get up next to you According to some reports the feel-good track was written with reference to Derulo's former girlfriend Jordin Sparks. The couple dated for three years before their relationship crumbled.

Derulo co-wrote the song with Ian Kirkpatrick, Sam Martin, Lindy Robbins and Mitch Allan. Kirkpatrick, who also produced the track, has successful singles with Neon Trees ("Animal") and Breathe Carolina ("Blackout") on his resumé.

The steamy video follows the song's storyline as a restless Derulo grabs a cab over to his lover's house in the middle of the night. The clip was premiered on dating app Tinder. "Social media and dating together is the new wave," explained the singer. "It is the source of one half of the relationships in 2015, and I'm all about being part of the new wave. A lot of my friends and family members are on Tinder."
