"Be Mine!" is a song by Swedish recording artist Robyn, written and composed by herself and producer Klas Åhlund for her self-titled fourth studio album (2005). It was released as the album's lead single in Scandinavia in 2005 and released as the fourth single from the album across most European territories in 2008.

The track reached number three on the Swedish Singles Chart, and scored some success in the rest of Scandinavia, peaking within the top twenty in Finland, Norway and the United Kingdom. Released to great critical success, the song was ranked number twenty-one on Pitchfork Media's list of Top 50 Singles of 2005[1] and number fourth on a same-titled list by Stylus Magazine.[2] Remixes of "Be Mine!" were produced by Dusty Kid, Jori Hulkkonen, Meat Boys, Ocelot, Redroche and Roger Sanchez,[3] with a studio live version being featured on Robyn's The Rakamonie EP. The song is performed with piano accompaniment in live acoustic versions by Robyn.

The song's chorus was sampled for Rye Rye's 2011 song "Never Will Be Mine", which also features Robyn.
