"Call It What You Want" is a house remix track, produced by C+C Music Factory, featuring an intro rap from Freedom Williams. The lead vocals were sung by Jordan Knight, Joey McIntyre, and Donnie Wahlberg. The song was another single that received decent (though not enthusiastic) airplay in North America during the spring months of 1991, and could be considered the "last hurrah" in terms of singles from the group's initial run. The single peaked at #12 on the UK Singles Chart. While the group played this song in concert during their 1994 Face the Music Tour, it was not played again until the New Kids on the Block: Live tour on March 7, 2009.
