Recommendation

Should you sing it?

I Don't Wanna is worth singing if a lived-in, first-person delivery comes naturally to you. Expect more changing verse text than repeated hook material and a dense lyric flow. Plan to carry the verses yourself; this is not rated as a dependable full-room singalong.
