"Happy Now?" is a song by American band No Doubt for their third studio album, Tragic Kingdom (1995). It was written by Gwen Stefani, Tom Dumont, and Tony Kanal, produced by Matthew Wilder, and released as the record's sixth single overall on September 23, 1997. The commercial CD singles were distributed exclusively in Australia and Sweden. However, the song was still released to radio stations in the United States. Musically, "Happy Now?" is a rock song with ska influence and lyrics detailing a painful breakup, specifically the former relationship between Stefani and Kanal. Despite not receiving a formal release in the United States nor filming a proper music video, "Happy Now?" received heavy rotation on Californian radio stations, such as KROQ. Critically, the single received a positive reception from music reviewers. Critics called the track emotional and strong and considered it a strong single despite its failure to reach the commercial success of prior singles from Tragic Kingdom. "Happy Now?" has been performed by No Doubt at a number of live appearances, including during their 1995–97 Tragic Kingdom World Tour and at their nationwide Return of Saturn Tour in 2000.more »
