"Right Now" is the debut single by English girl group Atomic Kitten, from their debut album of the same name (2000). Katona's version appears on the original version of the Right Now album although the version featuring Frost overdubbing the solo part by Katona appears on the 2001 re-release. The 2004 Greatest Hits album featured a new re-recorded version titled "Right Now 2004", which proved a greater international chart success.

The song was written by Atomic Kitten founder Andy McCluskey, and Stuart Kershaw – both erstwhile members of electronic band Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD).

"Right Now 2004" features in the American film Aquamarine.

There are two different videos to accompany the song: one for the original 1999 single release, which opens with workmen assembling the tiled dancefloor inside the studio. It shows all the girls walking through Liverpool wearing wet and shiny jackets, in a baker's shop, down in a lift in a department store, getting in a car, and on an open top double decker bus. This video includes the shots of Natasha, Liz and Kerry in 3 tunnels at a time (red and blue). During the first chorus, the Kittens and dancers dance on the multi-coloured tiled dancefloor with holes to the tunnels, with radio speakers at the side, and a green ramp.

The video accompanying the 2004 rerecording shows Natasha, Liz and Jenny rehearsing and performing a concert, intercut with backstage footage and glimpses of press conferences, holidays and television appearances.
