"I Like It" is a song by English electronic music duo Narcotic Thrust, with British singer Yvonne John Lewis on vocals. The song was written by Andy Morris, Stuart Crichton and Robert de Fresnes, while Morris and Crichton produced it. Andrew Levy from acid jazz group the Brand New Heavies played bass guitar on the song while ex-member Jan Kincaid handled the percussion.

Released as a standalone single on 5 April 2004, "I Like It" debuted and peaked at number nine on the UK Singles Chart six days later, becoming the duo's sole top-10 hit in the UK. The single also reached the top 20 in Flanders, Greece, the Netherlands, and Romania, as well as on three US Billboard dance charts. A music video was made for the song, featuring several female cheerleaders with red pom-poms dancing in a bright grey room filled with confetti.

Composed in the key of F-sharp minor, "I Like It" has a tempo of 130 beats per minute.[1] The original mix is seven minutes and twenty-five seconds long while the version released to radio is three minutes and six seconds in length.[2]
