"Stupid Cupid" is a song written by Howard Greenfield and Neil Sedaka that became a hit for Connie Francis in 1958.

"[2] Eventually Don Kirshner of Aldon Music had Greenfield and Sedaka, who were staff writers for Aldon, visit Francis at her home to pitch their songs, but she and close friend Bobby Darin argued that the slow, dense ballads they were offering didn't appeal to the teenager market.

Greenfield asked Sedaka to play "Stupid Cupid", an uptempo number intended for the Shepherd Sisters.

'"[3] Francis cut "Stupid Cupid" on 18 June 1958 at Metropolitan Studio (NYC); LeRoy Holmes conducted the orchestra while Morty Kraft produced the session.

A version of "Carolina Moon" recorded at Metropolitan Studio that 9 June with Kraft producing and Joe Lipman conducting was utilized as the B-side.

"Stupid Cupid" provided a reasonably strong comeback vehicle for Francis reaching the Top 15 that August with a Billboard Hot 100 peak of #14.

Neil Sedaka, one of the song's co-writers, recorded his own version in 1959, and it saw a single release in Italy on the RCA Italiana label.

"Stupid Cupid" has also been recorded by Wanda Jackson, by Jo Wyatt (of Minipops) whose 1982 version reached #1 in France[5] and #45 in the Netherlands, and by Mandy Moore for The Princess Diaries soundtrack, and in the motion picture, for her character Lana Thomas sings.
