"Caught in the Middle" is a song by British-Norwegian boy band A1, from their third studio album, Make It Good. Released as the album's lead single on 21 January 2002, it peaked at number two on the UK Singles Chart. It became one of their most successful and recognised singles.

In the United States, the song received moderate airplay and charted for seven weeks in the top 50 of the Radio & Records Mainstream Chart, peaking at No. 46. It was their only single to chart anywhere in the U.S.

A music video was produced to promote the single.

The chord progression of the intro of the song is reminiscent to "Dogs" by Pink Floyd.
