"We're Good" is a song by English and Albanian singer Dua Lipa from Future Nostalgia: The Moonlight Edition (2021), the deluxe reissue of her second studio album Future Nostalgia (2020). The song was written by Lipa alongside Emily Warren, Scott Harris and Sly, with the latter of the three handling the production. It was released for digital download and streaming on 11 February 2021 as the lead single from the reissue, simultaneously with the reissue's release. "We're Good" is a bossa nova and 2000s-styled, midtempo tropical-pop song with trap and reggae rock elements. It sees the singer fantasising about an amicable breakup with a former boyfriend.
Several critics complimented the sound and Lipa's vocal performance on "We're Good", while some found it interesting to see Lipa depart the sound of Future Nostalgia. However, some thought the sound did not fit Lipa. Commercially, the song reached number 21 on the Billboard Global 200. It also reached number 25 on the UK Singles Chart while charting within the top 40 of charts in 21 other countries, including a number 31 peak on the US Billboard Hot 100 and a number 4 peak in Croatia. The song was awarded gold certifications in Australia, Italy, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States.
The music video for "We're Good" was directed by Vania Heymann and Gal Muggia and filmed in New York City. Set on the Titanic and filmed from a lobster's point of view, it sees Lipa performing in a restaurant on the ship as the lobster watches his friends being taken out of their tank to eventually be cooked and served as dinner to the upper-class passengers Lipa performs for. Several critics complimented the video's fashion, which is taken from The Great Gatsby (2013), as well as the surreality of it. The song was further promoted with a remix by Dillon Francis and a performance by Lipa on BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge.
