“With the help and the connections of my publisher, I flew to Sweden for a studio session and met the writers, alexander tidebrink and Caroline Ljungström, there. When we began working on the song, we made the lyrics first. The first track ID was ‘Don't Wanna Know You', but we changed it to ‘Wanna Know U', matched the lyrics to the new title and gave the entire track a make-over. The sound really matches with armada music, so when we met Jeroen, Armada Music's head of A&R, at Tomorrowland, we told him about the song. We sent the demo and the rest is history. I played this song at some big festivals last summer and the reactions of the crowd were amazing, so I'm really hoping everyone will dig this song as much as I do.”, says Burak Yeter.
