"You Little Thief" is pop vocalist Feargal Sharkey's follow-up single to previous hit "A Good Heart". The single had a music video created for promotion. The b-side for the single "The Living Actor" was exclusive to the single.

The single was written by member of Tom Petty's band Benmont Tench about his relationship with Maria McKee who had written Sharkey's previous hit single "A Good Heart", based on Tench. Sharkey placed them next to each other on his debut album.

This was Sharkey's second and last major hit, becoming a strong hit throughout Europe.

A special remix 12" single was available, a version of the song remixed by Sharkey himself.

Daft Punk's "Around the World" video appears to be based upon the background composition of the video to this song.
