What I Like About You (Studio Mix) Lyrics

[Intro: Michael, All]
Woo!
Hey!
Uh-huh-huh, hey!
Uh-huh-huh, hey!


[Verse 1: Luke]
That's what I like about you
You hold me tight
Tell me I'm the only one
Wanna come over tonight? Yeah

[Chorus: All, Michael]
Keep on whisperin' in my ear
And tell me all the things that I wanna hear
'Cause it's true
That's what I like about you


[Verse 2: Calum, Calum & Michael]
What I like about you
You really know how to dance
When you go up, down, jump around
Think about true romance, yeah

[Chorus: All, Michael]
Keep on whisperin' in my ear
And tell me all the things that I wanna hear
'Cause it's true
That's what I like about you

[Post-Chorus: Luke, Calum, All]
That's what I like about you (What I like about you)
That's what I like about you (What I like about you)
That's what I like about you (What I like about you)
That's what I like about you (What I like about you)
Oh, hey!

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3: Ashton, Ashton & Michael]
What I like about you
You keep me warm at night
Never wanna let you go
Know you make me feel alright

(Two, three, four!)

[Chorus: All, Michael]
Keep on whisperin' in my ear
And tell me all the things that I wanna hear
'Cause it's true (Woo!)
That's what I like about you

[Post-Chorus: Luke, Calum]
That's what I like about you (What I like about you)
That's what I like about you (What I like about you)
That's what I like about you (What I like about you)
That's what I like about you, you
That's what I like about you

From their Track By Track:

Calum: On our EP, we have “What I Like About You” which is a really cool song that is a cover by The Romantics. We actually recorded this song with John Feldmann. What do I like about this song? It’s got a big party vibe, which I like, and it really suits us as a band I thought. We don’t come across many covers, many songs that we can cover, and have the…

Ashton: The tongue and cheek. The lyrics are like, so suited to us as a band. We heard it and we wanted to cover an old rock and roll song and we wanted to modernize it and bring it back to life for our fan base.

Luke: It’s very rock.

Michael: We thought we were missing kind of, it kind of filled the gap in the EP with the little party we were missing.
