I Want You Near Me is a pop ballad and the last European single from the Simply The Best album, but was not released in America. The CD digipack from England contains two picture discs with some live songs, taken from the album Live In Europe.
The music video is very sexy and shows Tina at a beach, wearing a red mini dress and playing around with a whip. Some shirtless men with white trousers are lying in the waves and do acrobatic exercises, while some women in bikinis are dancing at the beach.
