"Let Me Be Your Fantasy" is a song by the British musical group Baby D. Originally released by Production House Records in 1992, it became a number one UK single in November 1994 when re-released by London Records subsidiary Systematic. Sam Richards, writing in The Guardian in 2015, said "Let Me Be Your Fantasy was the biggest crossover hit of the rave era."

"Let Me Be Your Fantasy" originated in 1992 at the height of the rave scene. The song was written and produced by band member Floyd Dyce and the vocals were sung by Dorothy Fearon (AKA Dorothy "Dee" Galdes and Dee Galdes-Fearon).

Dyce has said "My idea for Fantasy was to try to develop an original song on top of hard beats: something you could sing along to as you were raving."

"Let Me Be Your Fantasy" only reached No. 76 when first released in 1992 by Production House Records. It remained popular however, and the single was reissued in the UK on 7 November 1994 by London Records subsidiary Systematic Records. It entered the chart at No. 3 before climbing to number 1 the following week, where it remained for two weeks. It was the 18th best selling single of 1994 in the UK. The song was released for a third time in 2000 as a UK garage remix by Trick or Treat. This version, featuring MC Tails, peaked at No. 16.

In 2007, the song was covered by German trance project 4 Clubbers. Pictureplane sampled the whole song in his version, "Beyond Fantasy".
