"'Ich lebe'" is a song by Austrian recording artist Christina Strmer. It was written by Alexander Kahr, Eva Kraus, Harald Hanisch, and Leopold Zillinger for her debut studio album 'Freier Fall' (2003), while production was helmed by the former. Recorded after her participation in the ORF 1 talent show Starmania, where Strmer had finished runner-up, it was released by Polydor Records on 24 March 2003 in Austria, where it debuted at number-one on the Austrian Singles Chart and remained atop for another seven weeks.

In 2005, a slightly re-written version of "Ich lebe", featuring additional lyrics by Frank Ramond and Maya Singh as well as new production by Thorsten Brtzmann, preceded the release of Strmer's album 'Schwarz Weiss', her first venture into the German and Swiss music markets. This version peaked at number four on the German Singles Chart, and reached number 21 in Switzerland. It was eventually certified gold by Bundesverband Musikindustrie (BVMI).
