"R U Still in 2 It?" is a song by Mogwai from their 1997 debut album, Young Team.
It is the only song on Young Team which is not instrumental; guest vocalist Aidan Moffat of Arab Strap sings lead vocals, accompanied by the other members of Mogwai singing backing vocals, and the chorus.
The song is based around a gentle minor-key guitar riff, which is repeated all throughout the song.
It is the only song Mogwai have released which could be considered a love song; the lyrics of "R U Still in 2 It?" suggest it is about a relationship which is failing.
An instrumental version of "R U Still in 2 It?" (recorded live by John Peel from a BBC Radio Session at the Golders Green Hippodrome, 22 December 1996) appears on Mogwai's live compilation album, Government Commissions: BBC Sessions 1996-2003.
