"What Do You Want from Me?" is a song by New Order bassist Peter Hook's band Monaco, released as their debut single. The song is about Hook's failed relationship with comedian Caroline Aherne. Released in February 1997 from the band's debut album, Music for Pleasure (1997), the song peaked at number 11 on the UK Singles Chart and became a top 30 rock hit in both Canada and the United States. The band released two further singles from the album, but this remains the most successful. A music video was also shot for the song. The track was adopted by fans of Shelbourne F.C. in 2011.
British magazine Music Week rated the song four out of five, adding, "Sounding like New Order with smiling faces, this first offering from Peter Hook and guitarist David Potts' partnership is a bright pop affair with those unmistakable Hook bass lines." David Sinclair from The Times described it as "a song blatantly redolent of New Order, yet charmingly so."
Stylistically, it sits in the alternative rock / synth‑pop space typical of Hook’s post‑New Order work.
