"IEYA" was the fourth UK single from the post-punk band Toyah, fronted by Toyah Willcox, and was released in 1979.

This track became an ever present mainstay of Toyah's live sets, and to this day it is rare for Toyah to play a full set and not perform "IEYA". It's b-side, "Helium Song" was an extended version of the track "Spaced Walking", which, along with "IEYA", featured on the bands first full length release, The Blue Meaning. Both tracks also featured on the 2005 compilation abum .

The single was released in several formats, including three different 7" vinyl releases, and for the first time, a 12" single.
