"Soldiers" is the second single from the album Hourly, Daily by Australian rock band You Am I. It was released in 1996 and reached number 80 in the 1996 Triple J Hottest 100 and number 33 on the Australian charts.

Tim Rogers said that the song was "very consciously" recorded with "boppy" horns, rather than distorted guitars, reflecting the music the band was listening to at the time. "You Am I were rock for four years, but we wanted to make something different."

The video clip directed by Andrew Lancaster won the award for best video at the 1996 Aria awards.

All songs by Tim Rogers.

"Boulder Fair", "Six" and "Count To Four" are all You Am I originals.
