Peter Sellers and Sophia Loren – Goodness Gracious Me

“Goodness Gracious Me” is a comedy song recorded by Peter Sellers and Sophia Loren. Released by Parlophone, it was a top 5 UK single in 1960. It features Sellers acting the role of an Indian doctor (a brown voice portrayal), and Loren of his wealthy Italian patient – who fall in love.

The song is a piece of non politically correct nonsense that does not even feature in the film it was intended to promote, yet ‘Goodness Gracious Me’, recorded by Peter Sellers and Sophia Loren at London’s Abbey Road Studios in 1960, is still played and loved all over the world.

The song ‘Goodness Gracious Me’ was written by David Lee and Herbert Kretzmer and was conceived as a way to publicise the release of the 1960 film The Millionairess, in which Loren played a spoilt, rich socialite who woos a reluctant Indian doctor, played by Sellers.
