4.0 out of 5 stars
Different, August 1, 2001
I think this song was very different from previous songs from Mandy Moore. Track 1 is "In My Pocket (Album Version)" This is the one you would hear on the album or on the radio. Track 2 is "I Wanna Be With You (Live On MTV)" I didn't really liked this one because it was too slow for my liking. Track 3 is "In My Pocket (Hex Hector 7" Mix) This mix is a bit slower than the Album version, but still danceable. This could of been longer. Track 4 is "In My Pocket (Thunderpuss Club Mix)" and it's my favorite! It starts out with some drums and with Mandy's voice a little in the background. Then it changes it's tune. Usually Thunderpuss' remixes make you want to get up & dance, this is not exception. I recommend this single, espeically for the Thunderpuss Club Mix.

Thunderpuss turn the track UP!, June 29, 2001
It was such a shame that 550 tried to rush Mandy Moore forward a an adult artist and shut down the playful teen so soon; "So Real" was such a perfect pop gem. Now however, the adult transition kicks in and Mandy leaves Britney far behind with this first-rate, dynamite new track. Written and produced by Emilio Estevan & co down in Miami, the track explodes with a Middle Eastern flavour, reminiscent of Paula Abdul's gorgeous "My love is for real". The song is simple -2 short verses and a catchy chorus, and Mandy still sounds a lot younger than she looks but the track hits so good because it sounds so fresh and exciting and it's so insanely catchy, you can't escape it! Hex Hector turns in a tried-and-tested sound for his remix. It's good but it doesn't compare to the absolutely fabulous, knock-'em-dead, Remix Of The Year by Thunderpuss. Almost 10 minutes of fabulosity -it's a total Mandy-Fest with banging bass lines, dark thundering beats and devastating dance-floor excitement!! This is the Real Deal! Buckle-up Baby >> You're gonna LOVE it! As for the unplugged version of "I wanna be with you": pur-leasssssssse! Why pin Mand as a Serious Songstress?! Enough already! The song is sweet but leave it at that. Now ... back to the good stuff!

Mandy Moore, "In My Pocket" [Australian CD Single], November 29, 2004
I believe that this was the first single from Mandy Moore's 2001 album, "Crush". "In My Pocket" was never released in the US - only as an import in Australia. The album version of this track is a bit weird at first, I must admit, but after time, one adapts well to it. The second track is a live on MTV version of Mandy's touching ballad, "I Wanna Be With You". The third track, Hex Hector's Main 7" (Radio Mix) of "In My Pocket" is a little too predictable, but with time, it becomes catchier and nicer to listen to. It reminds me of LeAnn Rimes', "Can't Fight The Moonlight". I'd give Hex 3.5/5 stars on this one. The final track is the absolutely phenomenal Thunderpuss Club Mix of "In My Pocket", clocking in at just under 10 minutes. What can I say about this mix? It blows my mind! They did an awesome job. I would give this single 4.5 stars (due to the somewhat blandness of Hex's mix), but since I must round to a whole number of stars, I will round up. If you enjoy Thunderpuss remixes, or are a die hard Hex Hector/Thunderpuss fan, then pick this up. Track listing is: 01. In My Pocket [Album Version] 3:38 02. I Wanna Be With You [Live on MTV] 3:05 03. In My Pocket [Hex Hector Main 7" (Radio) Mix] 3:24 04. In My Pocket [Thunderpuss Club Mix] 9:56 Good job Mandy, great job Thunderpuss!!! (Good thinking Epic Records)
