I Wonder Do You Think of Me is the third studio album by American country music artist Keith Whitley, released in August 1989 by RCA Records. It is Whitley's first posthumous album, being released three months after his death from alcohol poisoning. It peaked at number two on the Top Country Albums chart, and is certified gold by the RIAA. The album includes the singles "I Wonder Do You Think of Me", "It Ain't Nothin'" and "I'm Over You", the first two of which were number one country hits.
Also included are two songs which later became singles for other artists: A Don Everly cover of "Brother Jukebox" that went on to become a number one country single in 1991 for Mark Chesnutt from the album Too Cold at Home, and "Between an Old Memory and Me" which was a number 11 country single in 1995 for Travis Tritt from the album Ten Feet Tall and Bulletproof.
