I heard this song for the first time in 1983, while traveling by bus from Oklahoma to Texas…I was 14 years old. I memorized every word…wrote the lyrics on the back of my bus ticket. Every word! When I got back to my small town in Oklahoma two days later, I was still singing the song and my mother drove me 16 miles (the nearest town with a record store…omg I am old lol) and bought the album for me. I have introduced probably 50 - 100 people to this melodic heartbreaker and never understood why it was not a hit…maybe it should have been on a soundtrack (soundtracks were a wealth of underrated gems in the 1980s) to gain more exposure. I still love this track 40 years later. It was released before the big hair monster rock ballads and an overlooked treasure from the early 1980s. Thank you for posting this video!
First time I heard this song year 1983, at Jeddah. While I'm watching the enchanting views of the Queen of Shebah flowing of high water in the fountain at Red Sea.

I had never heard this version before as I had given up on the band when the Small Change album came out. Prism just didn't sound like Prism anymore. Still, this is a really great song although I do prefer the Richie Zito Project version with Eric Martin on vocals.
Prism, Beat Street! Henry Small singer. Prism does not recognize this album because it was Henry Small only. The "real" Prism was with Ron Tabak as lead singer.

I DON'T WANT TO WANT YOU ANYMORE
(Henry Small / Richie Zito)
Prism - 1983
If there's somewhere else you'd rather be
I wish you'd go there now
If there's someone else. don't stay with me
Cause I don't wanna doubt the love that you give
Make it for real or make it goodbye
I don't want to want you anymore
'Cause I've been hurt
Too many times before
I don't want to want you anymore
If you don't want me
Is there any reason why you changed
It gets me so confused
I don't know why you should find it strange
That I want you to choose between him and me
How can I lose what I've already lost
I don't want to want you anymore
'Cause I've been hurt
Too many times before
I don't want to want you anymore
If you don't want me
Well then let me know
Don't keep me in the dark
We've been lovers
We've been friends
But if it's gone too far
I don't want to want you
I don't want to want you, baby
Oh, I don't want to want you
I don't want to want you, girl
I don't want to want you
I don't want to want you, baby ahh
I don't want to want you
I don't want to want you, girl
I don't want to want you anymore
'Cause I've been hurt
Too many times before
I don't want to want you anymore
If you don't want me
(I don't want to want you)
(I don't want to want you, baby)
(I don't want to want you)
(I don't want to want you, girl)
I know you don't want me
(I don't want to want you)
(I don't want to want you, girl)
Baby, don't you know I want you, I want you
(I don't want to want you)
(I don't want to want you, girl)
(I don't want to want you)
(I don't want to want you, baby)

@capn02 , If I remember right , it was just doing a Google image search
Prism, Beat Street! Henry Small singer. Prism does not recognize this album because it was Henry Small only. The "real" Prism was with Ron Tabak as lead singer.
Doesnt change the fact that Henry sang some of Prism`s best songs like this one and Dont Let Him Know!
Blast from the past
