"Bad Thing" is a song by English singer Jesy Nelson, released independently on 14 April 2023. It is the follow-up to her debut single "Boyz" (2021) and her first release after her departure from Polydor Records in 2022. Co-written by Nelson, Tayla Parx and Em Walcott, it lyrically addresses a turbulent relationship with themes focused around domestic violence. The music video was praised, after Nelson worked with Women's Aid to present a graphic detail of the highs and lows of being in an abusive relationship. The song entered and peaked at number 15 on the UK Singles Downloads Chart.
