I Wanna Be With You is the second album from pop singer Mandy Moore. It was released in May 2000 through Epic Records when she was sixteen years old, six months after her debut album.

The album contained several new songs and a few remixes from her previous album So Real. It peaked at number twenty-one on the U.S. Billboard 200 and reached gold status[1] in the U.S. Some criticized the album as merely a remix album containing little new material. The title track, "I Wanna Be with You", was the only single to chart and reached number twenty-four on the Hot 100 in the U.S., Moore's highest peak to date. Epic re-released the single "Walk Me Home", but it again failed to make an impact on the charts. The album has sold over 805,000 copies in the United States[2] and over 2 million worldwide.

I Wanna Be With You was the international version of her debut So Real (which was only released in a few countries), including a mix of her debut and the new songs included on this album.

On the national market (USA) the album was not a major success. However, it was certified two 2x platinum in Philippines. Many versions of this album were produced, although there are two general track listings listed below. The Australian, Japanese, and Asian versions all differ from the standard version, with 16, 17, and 18 tracks respectively.

In Asia, it almost peaked the Asia Hitlist due to its massive radio airplay. However, sales began to subside when fellow contemporaries Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, and Jessica Simpson released singles at the same time.

The album reached number forty-nine in Japan, selling 15,760 copies. In New Zealand it became her first album to chart, peaking at number six.
