"One Crowded Hour" is a song by Australian indie rock band Augie March written by Glenn Richards.

During the band's appearance on the live music TV show Cold: Live At The Chapel, Richards revealed the song was written while he was housesitting for Deborah Conway, and was inspired by, and named after, a book she owned about an Australian wartime photographer Neil Davis.
