Aliyah Good just gave us a love song that doesn’t tiptoe around the feelings — “I Like It” is full-on heart-on-the-sleeve vulnerability, and it’s absolutely stunning. The Nashville-born singer/songwriter leans into every flutter, fear, and firework that comes with falling for someone, and instead of holding back, she opens up — all the way.


This isn’t your average sweet and safe love song. “I Like It” is honest in a way that feels refreshing — a soft-spoken confession wrapped in warmth and bravery. It’s about that terrifying yet magnetic moment where you finally tell someone how you really feel, even when your voice shakes and your heart threatens to jump out of your chest. The risk of rejection? Still worth it. Because when you’re that comfortable with someone — when you can expose the rawest, weirdest, softest parts of yourself and still feel safe — that’s the kind of connection worth writing songs about.


Aliyah captures it perfectly. The track feels like that early-stage glow, like falling in love all over again, like whispering “I like you” and hoping they feel the same. And if you’re already in love, thinking about love, or terrified of it altogether — this is the song that wraps around you like a blanket and tells you you’re not the only one spinning in those feelings.


The sound? Pure singer/songwriter bliss, with Aliyah’s signature blend of country-pop soul and indie honesty. It's tender but powerful — like if your journal had a soundtrack and it actually sounded amazing. She brings the emotion without overcomplicating it. No filters, no fluff. Just feeling.


Raised onstage and on the road, Aliyah’s been performing since she was a toddler, and that confidence shines through in “I Like It.” She’s not just singing — she’s telling your story. That one moment when you’re both excited and terrified to love someone. That aching sweetness of knowing you’re seen, and still choosing to stay open. And yeah — that quiet panic that follows when you wonder what happens after you say how you feel.



“I Like It” lives in that in-between space: the mix of joy and uncertainty, safety and vulnerability. It’s the kind of song you want to play when you're falling for someone, or missing the person who made you feel that way. And Aliyah doesn’t just capture those emotions — she owns them.


So, if your heart’s a little full, a little scared, and a lot confused — hit play. Aliyah Good just turned all those tangled feelings into three minutes of magic. And honestly? We like it. We love it.


Stream “I Like It” now — and fall in love like it’s the first time, every time.
