"Be OK" is the first single from Ingrid Michaelson's third studio album, Be OK.

The song was used in the films The House Bunny and The Decoy Bride,[1] in Season 1, episode 7 of 90210, in Season 2, episode 15 of Parenthood, in Season 4, episode 1 of Ugly Betty, and in advertisements for Better With You. It is mentioned in the 2012 Law & Order: SVU episode "Child's Welfare" (Season 13, episode 16), although the character[who?] erroneously refers to it as "I Just Want To Be OK".

It was also used in commercials for Mott's Apple Juice, Ritz Crackers, Travelers Insurance and German insurance company Allianz.[citation needed]

In 2017, Michaelson performed another version of song on the TBS news satire show Full Frontal with Samantha Bee, titled "(Earth Is) Not OK" with similarly altered lyrics describing effects of climate change and hurricanes sung from the perspective of the earth.
