"She Don't Want Nobody Near" is a single by American rock band Counting Crows from their greatest hits album, Films About Ghosts (The Best Of...). The song bases itself around the double negative of the title, and is a song about a girl who wants people around her.

Adam Duritz has said: "It’s just about people who are uncomfortable in the company of other people and also tired of being alone and they are trying to juggle those two opposing feelings. They are trying to figure out how to live that way."
