Behind the Scene is the sixth studio album by American country music artist Reba McEntire, released on August 15, 1983. It includes the singles "Why Do We Want (What We Know We Can't Have)", which was a top ten hit and "There Ain't No Future in This". It was her last album for Mercury Records before leaving for MCA Nashville in 1984. McEntire felt the need for change in record labels at the time as an opportunity to gain more independence in the material she recorded.[2]
