"Wear My Hat"
Song
B-side	"Hat Dance"

"Wear My Hat" is a song by British singer Phil Collins released as the fifth single from his album Dance into the Light. It was only released in the United Kingdom and peaked at #43 on the UK Singles Chart. Collins said in an interview that the song and its music video is about the pressures of fame and how some fans grow an attachment to their favourite stars. The video for the song featured actor Danny DeVito.

The song was played throughout the "Trip into the Light" World Tour and on the "First Final Farewell" Tour. A live performance of the song was also recorded for Top Of The Pops. However it wasn't aired (at the time) most likely due to it's very low charting position, but it was then was shown in full on an episode of Top Of The Pops 2 several years later.
