"It's OK" is the second UK single from and the fifth track on Delirious?'s second album, Mezzamorphis. It was released on February 21, 2000, reaching #18 in the UK Singles Charts and #3 in the indie section. In its second week, it stayed inside the top 75, dropping to #63 in the main charts and #11 in the indies.

Musically, the song itself is a rock ballad, featuring a Salvation Army brass band. Lyrically, it documents the redemptive journey of a girl facing great difficulties. It was met with some criticism within the American-Christian community because of the line "She's as pretty as hell." in addition to references of drinking wine.

The person on the front cover is Dominica Warburton who has made appearances in several TV shows and films. She also played a part in the accompanying music video for the single alongside the rest of Delirious?
