"Whatever You Want" is a hit single by rock and soul singer Tina Turner. The Trevor Horn produced song is noted for its different levels of energy and strong vocal performance. The single's highest charting was in Spain at #2.
The 2 part CD single included an alternate mix of the track, an extended six minute version and also an extended remix of Turner's cover version of Massive Attack's "Unfinished Sympathy". The four track 12" single included club mixes of "Whatever You Want" by renowned remix producer Todd Terry.
The music video was directed by Stéphane Sednaoui and it features Tina Turner with futuristic special effects surrounding her. The special effects become more vigorous as the song progresses.
Despite being released as the lead single to Tina's 1996 Wildest Dreams album and becoming a Top 20 hit in most parts of Europe, and also the opening number on her 1996/1997 Wildest Dreams Tour the track was suprisingly omitted from Turner's 2004 greatest hits package All the Best - this while the album featured four other tracks from the Wildest Dreams album.
