What was the number one song in the UK on 12th September 1953?
“Look At That Girl ” by Guy Mitchell was Number One on 12th September 1953 and it remained at number one for 6 weeks. Another great number one from the cheeky chappy who brought us “She Wears Red Feathers”
His songs are just so happy it makes me wish I was born in those days – he’s quite clearly having the time of his life…

Look at That Girl was written by Bob Merrill and produced by Mitch Miller.
Alberto Semprini, on piano with rhythm accompaniment, recorded it on October 13, 1953 as the third song of the medley “Dancing to the piano”.
Lyrics
“Look at the girl, she’s like a dream come true
Ah look at that girl, can blue eyes be so blue
Look at the way she walks, listen when she talks
With each word my heart just skips
Oh if I could kiss those lips
Mmmm
Look at that girl, you see what I see

Oh look at that girl, she’s walking straight to me
That’s right, last night I held her tight
Ho ho it happens all the time
I look at that girl, and I can’t believe she’s mine
(Look at the girl, she’s like a dream come true)
I don’t believe it they’re making it up
(Look at that girl can blue eyes be so blue)
But if I’m dreaming please don’t wake me up
Just look at the way she walks
Listen when she talks
With each word my heart just flips
Oh if I could kiss those lips
Look at that girl, do you see what I see
Look at that girl
She’s walking straight to me
That’s right, last night I held her tight
It happens all the time
I look at that girl, and I can’t believe she’s mine”
