"I Like" is a song by American singer Keri Hilson. It was written and produced by German musicians David Jost and Robin Grubert and recorded by Hilson for the soundtrack for the German film Zweiohrküken (2009). The track was later also featured on a re-released edition of Hilson's 2009 studio album In a Perfect World....[1] The song debuted at number 1 on the official German Top 100 Singles chart and was eventually certified Platinum by the Bundesverband Musikindustrie (BVMI). After its success in Germany, the song entered many other charts in Mainland Europe.
In April 2010, the song was used in a commercial for the broadcasting of US show 90210 on the UK channel E4.[2]
On December 21, 2009, Media Control announced that "I Like" had debuted at number 1 on the German Singles Chart.[3] To date, it is her most successful single in Germany, peaking at number 1 for three non-consecutive weeks. It was certified Platinum by the Bundesverband Musikindustrie (BVMI), selling over 300,000 copies. The single debuted on the UK Singles Chart at number 68 on May 23, 2010, and peaked at number 34.
The music video for "I Like" was shot in October 2009 by Aaron Platt.[4] It premiered online on November 20, 2009, and shows Hilson dancing in front of different scenes, featuring incorporated clips from the Zweiohrküken film. Later, on December 24, 2009, it premiered another version of the video, the main difference was that the video didn't feature incorporated clips from the Zweiohrküken film.
