Kristine wrote "Feel What You Want" with Rollo and Rob Dougan. When asked in an interview about how she came up with this song, she said:

"My stepfather had died and I really was depressed over his sudden death. He was my mentor, really, and one of my heroes. And he died of an aneurysm really suddenly. So that was really feeling his loss. That song just made me think about everything from religion to pollution to the planet. I wove a lot of things that I was feeling into that song. 'Sun rises at 9, it departs at 5 again, ain't doing overtime no more. In this world of color the brightest pictures are plugged right into your wall,' in television, you know, it just seemed like everything on the news was depressing. So when you're depressed it even seems more depressing. I felt like I was numb from the death and I was not living anymore. I was just kind of existing."

"Feel What You Want" was featured on the soundtrack of Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories on the Rise FM radio station.

The music video of "Feel What You Want" was directed by Lindy Heymann.

DJ Magazine ranked it number 91 in their list of Top 100 Club Tunes in 1998.

"Feel What You Want" was covered by "Phonique" for their "Kissing Strangers" album in 2010.
