Standing on the Corner (show tune)

"Standing on the Corner" is a popular song written by Frank Loesser and published in 1956. It was introduced by Shorty Long, Alan Gilbert, John Henson, and Roy Lazarus in the Broadway musical, "The Most Happy Fella."
A recording of the song by the Four Lads (made March 1, 1956) was popular in 1956. The recording was released by Columbia Records as catalog number 40674. It first reached the "Billboard" charts on April 28, 1956. It peaked at No. 3 on each of the various charts at the time: the Disk Jockey chart, the Best Seller chart, the Juke Box chart, as well as the composite chart of the top 100 songs. The flip side was "My Little Angel". Jimmy Arnold, lead tenor for The Four Lads in 1956, is sometimes erroneously listed as the song's co-author.
