"Tell Me What You Want" is a song by American band Weezer, written for the video game Wave Break. It was released as a single on June 11, 2021.
For the song, Weezer partnered with Funktronic Labs, the indie video game developers responsible for Wave Break, "the world's first skateBOATING game, inspired by arcade skateboarding classics".[2] A "Weezy Mode" was added to the game, based around the song.[3] "Tell Me What You Want" first surfaced as a B-side cut from Weezer's fifteenth studio album, Van Weezer.[2] It was created as a "stream-safe option" so that livestreamers on platforms like Twitch would not get copyright claims while playing Wave Break.[3]
The song premiered at the 2021 Summer Game Fest on June 10, 2021, with a live performance from Weezer. It was officially released a day later,[2][3] with a vinyl release via iam8bit that was released in spring 2022.[4]
