"Playing with Numbers" is a song performed by Irish singer-songwriter Molly Sterling. Self-described as a song that takes the perspective of one who took "risks that [they] really believed would pay off and [later] reflecting on the consequences of that gamble that went wrong in life or love", the song was written and lyrically composed by Sterling and The Brilliant Things member Greg French. It was released on 3 April 2015 by Lunar Records. The song was the Irish entry at the Eurovision Song Contest 2015, held in Vienna, where it failed to qualify from the second semi-final, finishing in 12th place out of 17 entries in the second semi-final, two spots away from a qualification spot.

Critical response of the song was positive, especially from local Irish media. The song was described by Irish television personality Marty Whelan as "really great", stating his belief that the song had potential to get a good result at the Eurovision Song Contest.
