"We Have Explosive" is a song by The Future Sound of London, released in 1997. It was the band's most successful single, getting to number 12 in the UK Singles Chart in 1997. It features prominent sampling of the Run-DMC album Tougher Than Leather. Part three also samples "Rockchester" by Fats Comet.

The successful standout single from FSOL's Dead Cities LP was, as with other FSOL singles, released with a plethora of remixed versions of it. It is a harder, more techno-oriented song, which is rare for the band; the track became well known to many after being featured in the 1996 hit video game wipE'out" 2097. The song is the first track on the soundtrack, remixes of it were also featured on the other versions of the soundtrack; the "Herd Killing" mix was used in the intro sequence.

The track listing below is the "CD-Maxi" listing.

Like other FSOL singles the sound of the song differs greatly from track to track, below are a few examples of this.
