Georgy Girl (song)

"Georgy Girl", written by Tom Springfield (music) and Jim Dale (lyrics), is the title song performed by The Seekers for the British film of the same name starring Lynn Redgrave and James Mason. Across late 1966 and early 1967, the song became a #1 Australian hit and a #3 British hit. In the United States, it proved to be the Seekers' highest charting single, reaching #2 on the "Billboard Hot 100" and prompting the Seekers' British album Come the Day to be retitled "Georgy Girl" for its American release. It was listed at number 36 on "Rolling Stone" magazine's "500 Greatest Pop Songs of all time" issued in 2002.
