"What I Might Do" is the debut single of Manchester-based English DJ/producer Ben Pearce. It was released by MTA Records on 11 October 2012,[2] under exclusive licence from Under the Shade Records. The song is considered as an example of deep house music[3] and is influenced by blues and soul.[4] It samples the Anthony Hamilton song "Cornbread, Fish & Collard Greens". It was nominated as "Essential New Tune" by Pete Tong on BBC Radio 1. The song rose to fame in September 2013 after being featured on a Tesco F&F television advertisement, so far peaking at number seven on the UK Singles Chart.[5] It has also charted in Belgium, Italy and the Netherlands. After its charting in September 2013, the single was re-released alongside new remixes on 14 October 2013.[1]
