Positive Spin is the second studio album by Australian singer-songwriter Gretta Ray, released on 18 August 2023 through EMI Music Australia.

On 24 May 2023, Ray hosted a fan event using her official Discord server in the northern suburbs of Melbourne. The activity was a scavenger hunt that guided fans to letters that spelt out the album's name.[6] The album was officially announced a day later, along with a tour titled The Big Pop Show.[7]

The album was nominated for the 2023 Australian Music Prize.[8] At the 2023 J Awards, the album was nominated for Australian Album of the Year.[9]

A deluxe version of the album, titled Positive Spin +, was released on 15 March 2024. It includes reworked versions of the songs "Upgraded" and "Heartbreak Baby", as well as the tracks "Roses" and "Better", a collaboration with Japanese Wallpaper.[5]
