"I Wish" is a song by British recording artist Cher Lloyd. It was released on 2 September 2013 as the lead single from her second studio album, Sorry I'm Late (2014). The song, produced by Shellback, Ilya and OZGO, features a guest appearance from American rapper T.I.. The song was leaked online on 28 August 2013. Lloyd performed the song on her I Wish Tour (2013-14).

Lloyd appeared on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon in November 2013, featuring Skee-Lo performing portions of his own rap song called "I Wish".

Critical reception of the single thus far has been positive. Rick Florino of ArtistDirect described the song as a "kind of sputtering spunky pop that bona fide hits are made of. As the beat bounces and horns pipe up, the singer bobs and weaves through a myriad of attributes she "wishes" she had—namely "a butt and a rack"". He also stated: "Add to that a flavorful verse from T.I., and you've got one of the catchiest and (sassiest) gems this year. Her next album might just be her Mona Lisa to date".Digital Spy awarded the song 3/5 stars, and called the single "undeniably fun".

The official music video for "I Wish" was uploaded on 24 September 2013. Directed by Gil Green, the video features both T.I. and Lloyd in a bar. In the video, T.I enters the bar with an entourage of girls, and Lloyd, as a waitress, notices T.I. but believes that she can't compete with the other girls, but tries to get his attention. However T.I. eventually leaves the girls he arrived with to talk to Lloyd, and the video ends with them leaving together.
