Mind If We Make Love to You

Mind If We Make Love to You is an album by the American power pop group Wondermints. It was released in 2002 on record label Smile Records. The unusual album title, with its intentional lack of punctuation, is a take-off of Mind If I Make Love to You, an album of 1950s cocktail instrumentals in Darian Sahanaja's record collection.

On September 20, 2002, Wondermints performed a concert to promote the album at the Knitting Factory in Los Angeles,[4] featuring special guests Brian Wilson and Evie Sands.

Multiple configurations of the album have been released in different parts of the world. Some pressings contain outtakes from the album sessions as well as Wondermints' cover of The Beatles' "Getting Better", which was originally submitted for use in a Philips commercial; the submission was rejected in favor of Gomez's version.
