"Single" is the debut single by British singer-songwriter Natasha Bedingfield. Written by Steve Kipner, Andrew Frampton, Wayne Wilkins, and Bedingfield and produced by the former three, the song is lyrically about being single and not needing a partner. The song was released through Phonogenic on 3 May 2004 as the lead single from her debut studio album Unwritten (2004) and later on 24 April 2006 as the third single from the album in the US.

It received a positive reception from music critics. The song became hit in the United Kingdom, peaking at number three on the UK Singles Chart and also entering the top ten in Ireland, Scotland, and the Tipparade chart in the Netherlands. Due to the success of the title track in the United States, "Single" became a minor success, only reaching number 57 on the Billboard Hot 100.
