"To Be Human" is a song recorded by Australian singer Sia featuring English singer Labrinth for the soundtrack to the 2017 superhero film Wonder Woman. It was released as a single on 25 May 2017 by WaterTower Music.
"To Be Human" is a ballad; some critics believed it reflects the film's core relationship between Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman and Chris Pine's Steve Trevor. Lyrically, the song express a love that can conquer all odds. It is the only non-instrumental song on the soundtrack album.
In Rolling Stone, Brittany Spanos thought with the "cinematic" single, Sia "creates a sweeping, epic musical moment." Lauren Tom for Billboard wrote, "Sia's powerful song reflects the film’s underlying message," noting the singer "channels her inner Wonder Woman." Megan Davies in Digital Spy opined the song is a "poweful new anthem." Randall Colburn of Consequence of Sound wrote, "The swelling, anthemic track, is a rousing one, bound to underscore a tender moment between Gal Gadot and co-star Chris Pine."
