"Who Do You Think You Are?" is the third single from English singer Kim Wilde's eighth studio album, Love Is (1992). The previous single, "Heart Over Mind", had only been released in the United Kingdom, making this the second international single. The song was remixed from its original album form for its release, and several longer remixes are included on the 12-inch and CD single formats. A remix of "Try Again" from Love Is was used as the B-side in the UK while other countries used "I've Found a Reason", an exclusive non-album track, previously used as the B-side to "Heart Over Mind". A remix of "Heart Over Mind" also appears on the UK CD single.
