"Do Something" is the lead single from Macy Gray's debut album On How Life Is, released in 1999. The song samples OutKast's 1994 song "Git Up, Git Out" and Nice & Smooth's 1989 song "Funky for You", therefore it contained no less than seventeen co-writers including Gray herself. In the United Kingdom, "Do Something" became Gray's first charting hit on the UK Singles Chart, peaking at number fifty-one there, however, it remains her lowest charting single there to date.
