"Music Is My Radar" is a song by British band Blur. As a single, it reached No. 10 in the UK.^[2] It was released in support of the band's greatest hits compilation, Blur: The Best Of, on which it was the only song that had not previously appeared on an album. An alternative version called "Squeezebox" appeared in 2012 on one of the rarities CDs from the Blur 21 box collection, released to celebrate the 21st anniversary of their debut album release, Leisure.

Nigerian musician Tony Allen, who is repeatedly mentioned in the lyrics, later collaborated with Blur frontman Damon Albarn as the drummer in the supergroups The Good, the Bad & the Queen and Rocket Juice & the Moon, and appears posthumously with Albarn on the 2020 Gorillaz song "How Far?".
