Do You Wanna Be?


"Do You Wanna Be?" is a song by Australian band I'm Talking. It was released in May 1986 as the lead single from the band's debut studio album, Bear Witness. The song peaked at number 8 on the Australian Kent Music Report, becoming the band's highest charting single and second top ten single. An instrumental version of the song was featured in a flat party scene in the 1988 film For Queen and Country.
At the 1986 Countdown Australian Music Awards, Kate Ceberano was nominated for Best Female Performance in a Video.
The song's composer and band's guitarist, Robert Goodge, stated: "Shannon's "Let the Music Play", "Give Me Tonight" and Fonda Rae's "Touch Me" the main influences, but we added in a harmonic structure that was reminiscent of something Chic might do."
