"Sing, Little Birdie" is a song recorded by husband-and-wife duo Pearl Carr & Teddy Johnson with music composed by Stan Butcher and English lyrics written by Syd Cordell.
Polly Brown would perform two contending songs in the British pre-selection round for the 1976 contest but as distinct acts: herself and as a member of Sweet Dreams.
Pearl Carr & Teddy Johnson performed "Sing, Little Birdie" tenth in a field of eleven entrants.
[3] At the close of voting, the song finished in second place, bettered by the Netherlands' entrant "Een beetje" by Teddy Scholten.
The song was mentioned in the Monty Python's Flying Circus sketch "World Forum/Communist Quiz" in 1970 as having won the 1959 contest as the correct answer by Mao Zedong when it actually finished second.
