I Only Wanted You is the sixth solo studio album by American country music singer Marie Osmond. It was Osmond's second album issued on Capitol/Curb Records and was released in 1986.

Background

The album consists of ten tracks of country pop material. It includes some guitar and bass solos and some saxophone solos as well on some of the songs.[2] Like its predecessor, the album spawned four singles on the Billboard Country Chart, beginning with a Paul Davis duet entitled, "You're Still New to Me" in 1986. It was followed by the title track released towards the end of 1986, then "Everybody's Crazy 'Bout My Baby," and "Cry Just a Little."

The album was released on CD by Curb Records in 1990, along with her other Capitol albums.
