Me Me Me were a short-lived English supergroup, including several high profile Britpop musicians.

The band was a collaboration between former Duran Duran/The Lilac Time member and solo artist Stephen Duffy (vocals, guitar), Alex James of Blur (vocals, bass), Justin Welch of Elastica (drums), and James' friend Charlie Bloor (credited as "musician"). The band's first, and only single, "Hanging Around" was released on August 5, 1996 and reached Number 19 on the UK Singles Chart.[1]

"Hanging Around" was released on 7-inch single (DUFF005) and cassette (DUFF005C), also featuring "Hollywood Wives", and on CD-single with a third track, "Tabitha's Island" (DUFF005CD). There were also promotional versions released in July 1996 on 12-inch single (DOLE041) and CD-single (DOLE044).[2] The tracks were originally recorded as a soundtrack for Damien Hirst's film Hanging Around, first shown at the Spellbound Exhibition, which took place at London's Hayward Gallery in March 1996.[3]

The lead track was produced by the band. The other tracks were produced by Stephen Street.[3]
