"That Sounds Good to Me" is a song written and composed by Pete Waterman, and Steve Crosby that finished last when it represented the United Kingdom at the Eurovision Song Contest 2010 held in Oslo, Norway. The song and performer was revealed as Josh Dubovie on 12 March 2010 who won Eurovision: Your Country Needs You.

The song was initially written by Pete Waterman and before even the gender of the singer had been chosen. It was only revealed to the public on 29 January 2010 that Pete Waterman would write the song. On 19 February the BBC confirmed that Mike Stock would join his partner in co-writing the song. Steve Crosby was also accredited as a joint lyricist and composer at the Eurovision Song Contest on 29 May 2010.

To select the singer the British public voted for three different renditions of the song on Eurovision: Your Country Needs You on 12 March 2010. This followed the same process as the previous year, where multiple acts performed "It's My Time", composed by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Dianne Warren. Two male singers, Alexis Gerred and Josh Dubovie, and one female singer, Esma Akkilic, performed "That Sounds Good to Me" individually. The public chose Josh Dubovie's performance as their favourite.

The version of "That Sounds Good to Me" performed on the selection show was not the version that was later performed in Oslo, as it was revamped to compliment Dubovie's voice more effectively. Stock suggested that any criticisms that had been voiced about the song would be looked at when preparing the final version.

The radio single was presented on the 29 April 2010 and premièred on Ken Bruce's show on BBC Radio 2. It was released on 24 May 2010.
