"Do It Our Way (Play)" is a song performed by British recording artist Alesha Dixon. It was released on 1 January 2012 to digital outlets in the United Kingdom and Ireland. Co-written by Dixon herself, Ray Hedges and Nigel Butler and produced by Hedges and Butler, the song was written and released as a promotional single to complement advertising by weight loss company Weight Watchers. The television advert (doubling as a music video), when aired in full, was one of the longest to ever run on British television. Dixon features alongside over 180 "success stories" of the Weight Watchers programme in the video. Despite critics noting comparisons between the song and Jessie J's "Price Tag" (2011), it reached number 53 on the UK Singles Chart the week following its release.

The song samples "Big Big World" by Emilia Rydberg. It was also released on an independent label, Saatchi and Saatchi.
