Chart Performance
"I Want You" received very little radio airplay on mainstream radio, instead receiving more airplay at urban stations. Jackson earned several award nominations including Best Female R&B Vocal Performance at the 2005 Grammy Awards. It was released under a LidRock CD and was certified platinum by the RIAA in 2004. The song was only released as a single in the U.S., appearing as a double A-side with "All Nite (Don't Stop)" in some international markets such as the United Kingdom, Australia, and Japan. "All Nite (Don't Stop)" c/w "I Want You" peaked at #19 in the UK as a double-sided single.
The single peaked at number fifty-seven on the Billboard Hot 100 and number eighteen on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. However, due to the strain on the singles from Damita Jo, it failed to impact the pop charts.
