"I Am" is a song by Australian rock band Killing Heidi, written by Ella Hooper, Jesse Hooper, Warren Jenkin and Adam Pedretti and produced by John Travis for the band's third album, Killing Heidi (2004). The song was written in Los Angeles after "a couple of gross guys wolf-whistled" at the lead singer, Hooper, while she was walking down the street.[2]

Released on 12 July 2004, "I Am" became the band's fifth top-20 single in Australia, peaking at number 16, and also was included on the Australian soundtrack to the 2004 superhero film Spider-Man 2. The song remained in the Australian top 50 for 11 weeks, eventually selling over 35,000 copies and achieving gold status.
