It was released in 1995 as the final single from Etheridge's 1993 studio album, Yes I Am. "If I Wanted To", which was released as the two-sided single "If I Wanted To / Like the Way I Do", debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 in February 1995 at No. 25, making it the highest-debuting single of 1995.[1] The single's debut was the best for any song since Boyz II Men's "On Bended Knee" debuted at No. 14 in November 1994.[1] Fred Bronson of Billboard wrote, at the time, that with the single's record debut, "Melissa Etheridge continues to solidify her new status as a chart superstar with the highest-debuting single of 1995."[1] "If I Wanted To" peaked at #16 on the Billboard Hot 100 in March 1995.[2] Strong singles sales in March 1995 for TLC's "Red Light Special," Real McCoy's "Run Away," and The Notorious B.I.G.'s "Big Poppa" prevented "If I Wanted To" from rising higher on the Hot 100, despite widespread airplay on major U.S. radio stations.[3] Music videoThe single's music video was directed by Samuel Bayer.
