"Great DJ" is the name of the third single by english Indie pop band The Ting Tings. The single was originally released as a double A-side along with "That's Not My Name."

When "Great DJ" was re-released it did not enter the UK chart until 1 week after the individual re-release of single "That's Not My Name" went to #1.

The cover sleeves for the single were in fact recycled: Katie and Jules gathered old 7" records from numerous car boot sales and charity shops in and around Manchester, turned the sleeves inside out and customised them to create new sleeves for this single.[1]
