Alan: "We were doing this combination with Martin doing his Indian voice combined with a bassoon type sound."
Martin: "It was pretty ethnic." [launches into his Indian voice]
Demo version
If You Want is the penultimate track on the 1984 album "Some Great Reward" and is the second track on Alan Wilder's 1984 "Some Great Reward" Demo Tape, which consists of four tracks. You can stream the entire demo track below, or download the entire four-track demo tape here.
Lyrics
Note that these are lyrics for the demo version of If You Want. There is a single change in lyrics between the demo and the album versions at the last line of the song: "still" and "may" are reversed between the two.
Working week's come to its end
Party time is here again
Everyone can come if they want to
If you want to be with me
If you want to be with me
You can come with me if you want to
Exercise your basic right
We could build a building site
From the bricks of shame is built the hope
If you want to be with me
If you want to be with me
Even though you may still not want to
Let tomorrow and today
Bring a life of ecstasy
Wipe away your tears of confusion
If you want to be with me
If you want to be with me
You can come with me if you want to
Even though you still may not want to
