"ILY (Yokubō)" (I.L.Y.~欲望~, "I Love You (Desire)") is Olivia's first solo single released on February 3, 1999 under the label Avex Trax. The song was written by T2ya.[1] It peaked at 32nd place on the Oricon weekly singles chart and charted for four weeks.[1] The single was used as an ending theme song in the TV show G Paradise, as well as in a commercial for Morinaga & Company.[1]

Her debut single marks a shift away from the upbeat dance-pop oriented music from her days in D&D to a more alternative rock sound.[2][3]

The music video was shot on January 17, 1999 at a studio in Japan.[3]
