"If I Was" is a popular song written by Midge Ure and Danny Mitchell, released as a single off of his first solo album The Gift. It reached #1 on the UK singles chart for a single week in October 1985. This was Ure's third number one, coming after his success with Slik in 1976 ("Forever and Ever") and Band Aid in 1984 ("Do They Know It's Christmas?").
In the sleeve notes for the 2001 compilation If I Was: The Very Best of Midge Ure & Ultravox Ure wrote:
The music video featured Ure's face patterns on a Pin Art pinscreen.
The instrumental "Piano" was released on the B-side of the 7" and 12" singles. The 12" single featured a second track: a cover of David Bowie's "The Man Who Sold the World", originally released on the film soundtrack of Party Party (1983). Both songs were added as bonus tracks to the CD reissue of The Gift in 1996.
