"Wild Wind" is a song by English singer John Leyton, released as a single in September 1961.

It was written by Geoff Goddard, produced by Joe Meek, and featured the Outlaws on backing, all of whom had also done the same for "Johnny Remember Me".

[3] There were significant advance orders of "Wild Wind", which according to the record company EMI (who owned Top Rank), would normally be expected for the established stars such as Cliff Richard and Elvis Presley.

[4] "Wild Wind" was released at the end of September 1961 whilst "Johnny Remember Me" was still in the UK singles chart.

It quickly went to number two in that chart, spending two weeks there, unable to displace Helen Shapiro's "Walkin' Back to Happiness".
