I Know What I Like was released as a single from the album Fore! in 1987. The single peaked at number nine on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100.  Like the earlier single, "Hip to Be Square", "I Know What I Like" featured background performances by then-San Francisco 49ers, Dwight Clark, Riki Ellison, Ronnie Lott, and Joe Montana.

Upon the release of the album in 1986, "I Know What I Like" peaked at number 25 on the Billboard Album Rock Tracks chart in September 1986. When released as a single in 1987, the track re-entered the chart but topped out this time at number 31.

And for you music geeks - the song is in major and uses the rare minor dominant chord, lacking a leading-tone.

Still a hit today?
