Wikipedia article
"'What I Don't Know 'bout You'" is the first single from the album #4 Record by Australian rock band You Am I. It was released in 1998 and reached number 28 on the Australian ARIA singles chart; the band's highest-charting single.
The group's lead singer Tim Rogers had mixed feelings about the track, he explained, "[it] was my favourite song that I'd written at that point. I loved the lyrics in particular, but it just wasn't recorded in the way I thought it should."
