"Not Me, Not I" is a pop song written by Gary Barlow, Delta Goodrem, Eliot Kennedy, Kara DioGuardi and Jarrad Rogers, produced by Barlow and Kenndy for Goodrem's first album Innocent Eyes (2003). It was released as the album's fourth single in Australia on 12 September 2003 (see 2003 in music).

This single is a love song, which talks about her pain at losing her first love. There has been speculation she is singing about her ex-boyfriend and fellow Neighbours star, Blair McDonough.

Chart performance

"Not Me, Not I" debuted at number two behind Dido's "White Flag", and sold 11,505 copies in its first week. The week after, it took the number one position, giving Delta her fourth number one consecutive single in Australia. This broke Kylie Minogue's previous record of three consecutive number ones. "Not Me, Not I" remained in the top ten for ten weeks.

In the UK, the single debuted and peaked at number eighteen, while it peaked at number eleven in New Zealand.

Music video

This video was shot during the early stages of her cancer at Newtown, Sydney, Australia. The video clip for the song was directed by Michael Spiccia, who has worked with other artists including Disco Montego and Killing Heidi. Goodrem posed in a range of outfits during the shoot at a secret location in Redfern Railroads. The clip includes a trademark shot of Goodrem playing the piano, along with other visual effects including the ethereal goddess scene.
