The song, written by Romantics members Wally Palmar, Mike Skill and Jimmy Marinos in 1979 is included on the band's self - titled debut album (1980), and was also released as a single . Marinos, the band's drummer, is the lead vocalist on the song . The band filmed a music video for the song that appeared frequently on MTV during the early 1980s . </P> <P> "What I Like About You" was written by Palmar, Marinos and Skill around a guitar part by Skill . The song's "Hey, uh - huh - huh" refrain was influenced by The Yardbirds' "Over Under Sideways Down" and Chuck Berry's "Back in the U.S.A.". The song's riff is slightly similar to Neil Diamond's "Cherry, Cherry", The Standells 1966 hit "Dirty Water", and Joe Jackson's 1979 single "I'm the Man". The Romantics recorded the song and the accompanying album at Coconuts Recording Studio in Miami Beach, Florida . </P>
