"Single-Bilingual" is a song by English synth-pop duo Pet Shop Boys, released on 11 November 1996 as the third single from their sixth studio album, Bilingual (1996). The track peaked at number 14 on the UK Singles Chart. The song is named "Single" on the album version but was retitled "Single-Bilingual" because Everything but the Girl also had a song named "Single", which had been released the previous May. The album version cross-fades with the previous track, "Discoteca", of which both the album and single versions feature an interpolation at the end.

==Background and composition== "Single-Bilingual" was written during the composition of "Discoteca", as a new song at the end of that track. The songs were on one mastertape, linked together by drums, which were performed by the Scottish women's drumming ensemble, SheBoom. The idea was to open the album with a sad song leading into a comedic, satirical song.
