"Do It Again" (stylised in all caps) is a song by New Zealand singer Benee featuring Australian singer Mallrat, released through Republic Records on 28 June 2023, as a standalone single and the official song of the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup. Primarily written by Benee and Mallrat alongside Joshua Fountain, Tiare Kelly, and Timon Martin, "Do It Again" was produced by Fountain and Martin.
"Do It Again" peaked at number 30 on the New Zealand Hot Singles Chart.
Background Speaking about the song to Stereogum, Benee spoke about the song's conception, saying:
Benee and Mallrat had previously collaborated on "Winter" in 2020, from the former's debut album, Hey U X. The pair, hailing from both hosting countries—Australia and New Zealand—performed the song at the opening ceremony at Auckland's Eden Park, on 20 July 2023.
Critical reception Megan Armstrong of Uproxx called the track an "empowered, pulsating anthem [and a] guaranteed summer earworm even outside of its World Cup placement". FIFA dubbed the song a "vibrant and infectious anthem that promises to captivate fans".
