"Little Man" is a song by Australian singer-songwriter Sia. It was released in the United Kingdom and Ireland in 18 September 2000, as the second single from her second studio album, Healing Is Difficult (2001). "Little Man" was remixed by UK garage musician Wookie (under the alias Exemen) and was a popular club hit.[1] The song debuted and peaked at number 82 in the United Kingdom.

In an interview in 2014, Sia spoke of her admiration for Amy Winehouse and said Winehouse covered the song at the Chateau Marmont and told Sia, "That's one of my favourite songs."[2]

"Little Man" is set in the key of E minor.[3]
