[edit] About the record

"I Don't Care" is a song originally recorded by American Pop singer-songwriter Angela Via. It was covered by Australian pop singer Delta Goodrem. The song was written by Steve Kipner and David Frank; who co-wrote Christina Aguilera's hit single "Genie in a Bottle". "I Don't Care" was aimed at fans of fellow popstar, Britney Spears, after her success of the single and album ...Baby One More Time.

Delta Goodrem admits now that the song was not her 'cup of tea'. She called the song a 'learning experience'; one which she said enabled her to truly go in the direction she wanted to go in. (citation needed)

Delta's single featured a B-side, "Here I Am", a dance-oriented number receiving minor success (citation needed). Despite "I Don't Care" being commercially unsuccessful, original CD recordings of this song are sought after by Goodrem's fans. Delta performed the song at her Visualise concerts in 2005.

[edit] Music video

Goodrem's video for this song followed a simple theme. It showed an angsty Goodrem escaping from her parent's house to be with her rebellious boyfriend. The boyfriend takes Goodrem on a motorcycle ride into the forest, where he blindfolds her. When Goodrem takes her blindfold off, she is surrounded by a tree full of ribbons, a special surprise that was created by the boyfriend. The video is also intercut with scenes of Goodrem dancing in a Christmas-light-filled backdrop, and a scene where Goodrem is dancing in a wheat field.
