"Why Can't I Wake Up with You" is a song by boy band Take That. Written by Gary Barlow, the song was released on 20 February 1993 as the lead single from their second album, Everything Changes.
The original version of the song first appeared on their Take That & Party debut album, however Gary Barlow re-wrote the song with a higher tempo and modified lyrics. It was released in February 1993 and peaked at number two on the UK Singles Chart, spending 10 weeks on the UK singles chart. The song has since received a Silver sales status certification from the BPI for sales of over 200,000 copies inside the UK.
The music video depicts the band members on their own in different rooms of a house each singing the song, with Mark Owen dressed in just an open shirt and white briefs. At the end of the video, the band members are shown trying to get past paparazzi.
*Billed as the "Live Version" on the sleeve but actually contains an unknown extended mix featuring a much-longer outro to the song.
