"Georgy Girl" is a song by the Australian pop/folk music group #TheSeekers. It was used as the title song for the 1966 #filmOfTheSameTitle. #TomSpringfield, who had written "#IllNeverFindAnotherYou", composed the music and #JimDale supplied the lyrics. The song is heard at both the beginning and end of the film, with markedly different lyrics (and with different lyrics again from those in the commercially released version).

My record collection: #036: Dean & Britta - The Carnival is Over
