"Guilty" is a single by musician Mike Oldfield, released in 1979 (See 1979 in music). It reached number 22 in the UK Singles Chart. It is notable for being Oldfield's first obvious attempt to capitalise on a current musical trend, in this case disco/dance music.

The music video for "Guilty" is in a colourful cartoon style.

When Oldfield was in New York recording "Platinum" and "Guilty" he recorded a disco arrangement of his first album, "Tubular Bells" [cite web |url=http://amarok.ommadawn.net/mike/discog/extras/raretracks.htm |title=Rare Tracks |publisher=Amarok (Ommadawn.net) |accessdate=2008-08-14] .
