"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).

The song peaked at number-one in the Australian Singles Chart, making Goodrem's fourth number-one single, breaking Kylie Minogue's record of having the most songs released from an album to reach number-one.

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.

The song is acoustic rock and has an influence of the pop rock genre. It is heavily piano-driven with some use of a string ensemble. The song has a prominent emphasis on the instrumental arranging, and it's written in they key E minor. The chords follow in this order: Em–C–D–B7, and then for the chorus: Em–C–Am7–D.

"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.
