"What I Can Do for You" is a song by American singer-songwriter Sheryl Crow from her debut studio album, Tuesday Night Music Club (1993), released on A&M Records. It was originally issued in February 1994, and the single includes a faster version of LP track "The Na-Na Song" under the name "Volvo Cowgirl 99". In the United Kingdom, the song reached number 84 in its first release in 1994, then number 43 following a re-release in late 1995. The song deals with sexual harassment, which Crow says she experienced during her rise to fame.[citation needed]
The 1995 UK release sparked an industry controversy when the Official Charts Company initially refused to allow the single chart placing due to the free calendar in the packaging, which broke a chart rule about free gifts. After it was pointed out that the chart compilers had allowed Madonna's "You'll See" to chart (which also contained a free calendar, albeit configured differently within the single packaging as postcards, rather than ring-bound), the decision was reversed just before the week's chart was issued.[2]
