"I Hope You're Happy Now" is a song written by new wave musician Elvis Costello, recorded by Costello and the Attractions. The track was released on his 1986 album Blood & Chocolate after several failed attempts to record the song for earlier releases.
Featuring sardonic lyrics about a former relationship, "I Hope You're Happy Now" as the B-side to "I Want You" in November 1986. It has since been positively received by critics and appeared on compilation albums and in Costello's live setlists.
