"Want Me, Want Me" is the 29th single by Japanese recording artist Namie Amuro. It was released by Avex Trax on April 6, 2005, and was the last retailed single to precede her seventh studio album, Queen of Hip-Pop (2005). "Want Me, Want Me" was initially supposed to be released as an album track of Queen of Hip-Pop or a coupling song, but Amuro thought it was so good she made it a single despite the opposition of her staff. The song's lyrics were written by Michico, while its music was composed by Sugi-V. Musically, "Want Me, Want Me" is an upbeat reggae-style tune with an addictive loop that incorporates Japanese elements like the koto that plays during the intro. Atypical for Amuro, the song contains sexually aggressive lyrics and namechecks the condom brand Trojan in the chorus.

Music critics praised "Want Me, Want Me" for its sound that was unorthodox in mainstream Japanese music at the time, with some hailing the song as one of the highlights from her discography. Commercially, it was a success in Japan, peaking at the second position on the Oricon Singles Chart. The song was the third of three consecutive singles to sell over 100,000 copies and was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of Japan (RIAJ) for sales exceeding 100,000 units. "Want Me, Want Me" also provided Amuro with her largest first-week sales in four years.

To promote "Want Me, Want Me" a music video directed by Masashi Muto filmed in an undisclosed studio was made for the song. Since its release, "Want Me, Want Me" has appeared on several of Amuro's concert tours and subsequent live releases, as well as her greatest hits album Best Fiction (2008), and was re-recorded for her final compilation album Finally (2017).
