Maria (I Like It Loud) is a 2003 single by German techno group Scooter, released as part of their stadium techno era and built around a loud, chant-driven hook designed for large crowds. The track became one of the group's recognisable anthems, and short clips of its chorus circulate online as a shorthand for maximum energy and over-the-top confidence. Its appeal has endured because the hook is instantly recognisable even out of context, making it easy to reuse in edits, streams and short videos without needing the full song.
