"Sing (To Me)" is an early song by the British band Blur.

It was recorded in 1989 while the band was still called Seymour. The song was later re-recorded as "Sing" and included as a B-side to the band's debut single, "She's So High" (1990) and also made it onto the band's debut album, Leisure released in 1991. This version was also used in the soundtrack to the film Trainspotting. Perhaps beacuse of its droning structure and difference to the rest of the material on Leisure which was much more upbeat, "Sing" was replaced on US versions of the album with "I Know".

The original version was eventually released as Fan Club single #4 in 2000.
