I Wanna Be with You is the reissue of American singer Mandy Moore's debut studio album, So Real (1999). It was released on May 5, 2000, through Epic Records, five months after the release of its parent album. Internationally, I Wanna Be with You was released as Moore's debut album as opposed to So Real. Upon its release, I Wanna Be with You garnered mixed reviews from music critics, with many deeming it an improvement over its predecessor So Real while also criticizing the album for containing previously released material. The album has sold over 805,000 copies in the United States and was certified gold.
Worldwide, the album was released in a variety of formats. All versions of the album contain five new songs but have varied track listings and content, most of which was first featured on the So Real album. The North American edition features three new remixes while other editions released worldwide omit these remixes and borrow more heavily from So Real.
Four singles were released from I Wanna Be With You. The first single from the album in the United States was the title track, "I Wanna Be with You". It was a moderate commercial success and peaked at number twenty-four on the US Billboard Hot 100. In Australia, the song peaked at number thirteen and was certified gold. Other singles released from the album were "Candy", "So Real", and "Walk Me Home".
