Capital 958 (Chinese: 958城市頻道; lit. '958 City Channel') is a Mandarin-language radio station in Singapore. Owned by the state-owned broadcaster Mediacorp, it broadcasts a classic hits format.

The station's origins can be traced back to Radio Malaya Singapore's Green Network—which broadcast programming in Chinese dialects. The station later became the Chinese Service of Radio Television Singapore, and began to be relayed on 95.8 FM on 15 July 1967. It became known as Radio 3 on 1 January 1982, and later 95.8 City Sounds on 16 December 1991. The station was simulcast on AM and FM until 31 December 1993.

In a 2022 survey, Nielsen ranked Capital 958 as Singapore's fourth-highest rated radio station.[1]
