"Go to Work" is a song by Irish recording artist Nadine Coyle. The song was released as a digital download on 8 September 2017 by Virgin EMI Records.
"Go to Work" is Coyle's first single since the release of "I Could Be" with Shane Filan in 2015, and her first single as the lead artist since "Sweetest High" in 2011.
Coyle announced the single on 23 August 2017, and published a dance rehearsal clip, audio snippet, and music video preview via Twitter to promote the song. The music video was released on 15 September, one week after the track's release. Coyle performed the track live for the first time on 9 September, supporting Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds at "We Are Manchester", a benefit concert to mark the reopening of Manchester Arena following the bombing in May 2017. She had also performed the song at G-A-Y in London on 16 September 2017, making it her second solo performance at the venue since "Insatiable" in 2010. On 29 September 2017, Coyle performed "Go to Work" on an episode of Strictly Come Dancing: It Takes Two. She further promoted the song with a non-singing appearance on Channel 4's Sunday Brunch on 1 October 2017.
Ross McNeilage of MTV News described the single as a "90s house-influenced [...] total banger, through and through, that gets the party started while letting Nadine's incredible voice shine". Lewis Corner of Gay Times described it as a "pop banger ready for the weekend" and Justin Myers of Official Charts Company says that the single's "infectious housey piano and incessant beat recalls the golden era of the '90s, while the bang up-to-date production includes elements any pop fan of 2017 would be familiar with – tropical house influences are present and correct, even if the overall vibe is nowhere near as laid-back".
