"Oh Sheila" is a song by American R&B band Ready for the World. Released as a single in 1985, it reached number one on the US Billboard Hot 100, the Billboard Hot Black Singles chart, and the Billboard Hot Dance/Disco Club Play chart. It was the first of two chart toppers for the band on the Billboard R&B chart, preceding their 1986 number-one R&B hit "Love You Down". The song is commonly misattributed to Prince, due to the similarities to his vocal and musical style, heavy use of the detuned rimshot in courtesy of a Linndrum, and the belief that the song's lyrics allude to frequent Prince collaborator Sheila E. The use of a faux British accent during parts of the song was the preference of singer Melvin Riley Jr., who said "I like that kind of accent, so I thought I'd use that sound."
