"I Like It" is a song by English electronic music duo Narcotic Thrust featuring British singer Yvonne John Lewis on vocals. Andrew Levy from acid jazz group the Brand New Heavies plays bass guitar on the song while ex-member Jan Kincaid handles the percussion. Released as a standalone single in 2004, "I Like It" was the duo's second song, after "Safe from Harm", to appear on the UK Singles Chart, debuting and peaking at number nine on 11 April 2004 to become their sole top-ten 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.
