"Tanpopo" (たんぽぽ?) is the third single of Hello! Project subgroup Tanpopo. It was released on June 16, 1999 as a 8cm CD. Unlike other Tanpopo singles, the song was first featured in Tanpopo 1 before it was released as a single.

Former Tanpopo member, Aya Ishiguro, reunited with the group's 2nd Generation to sing the Grand Symphonic version of the song. This new version, along with the single version, was featured in the group's second album, All of Tanpopo.
