"What Were We Thinking Of" is a song recorded by American singer Barbra Streisand for her 25th studio album, Till I Loved You (1988).
It features guest vocals from the singer's then-boyfriend Don Johnson, who had previously collaborated with Streisand on her 1988 single "Till I Loved You".
The singer remarked that she enjoyed duetting with him because he is "very musical and has a unique sounding voice"; she was also interested in their collaborations due to the fact that he was able "act" out the lyrics while singing.

Paul Grein, a writer for the Los Angeles Times, considered the song and "Some Good Things Never Last" as the two best cuts on side two of the parent album.
