Whatever We Wanna
Whatever We Wanna is the eighth studio album by American singer LeAnn Rimes, released June 6, 2006. The album has a more rock-oriented sound. The album was released and promoted exclusively in Europe, Taiwan, and Brazil. It was originally slated to be released in the U.S. (and even appeared in the US iTunes store briefly), however, the release was pulled due to the success of her single (from This Woman), "Something's Gotta Give" (which peaked at #2 on Billboard’s Top Country Songs), leading to an increase in sales of This Woman. A deluxe edition with three bonus remixes was released in the US on September 10, 2021, fifteen years after the original release.[2]
