"Won't Somebody Dance With Me" is a song written by Lynsey De Paul in 1973, which was awarded an Ivor Novello Award in 1974. Her original version of the ballad made the UK, Irish and Dutch Top 20s, and has been featured in the film, ''The Big Sleep'', and the television programmes ''The Muppet Show'' and the 1970s version of the ''New Mickey Mouse Club'' (performed on that show by Lisa Whelchel). This autobiographical song, inspired by an event from Lynsey's teenage years, included some spoken dialogue by a male voice; on the original single the voice was that of Radio 1 DJ Ed Stewart.〔("Lynsey de Paul: The Seventies songbird who couldn't find love 1950-2014", ''Daily Express'', 3 October 2014 ).

Lynsey herself re-recorded an updated version of the song on her 1994 album ''Just a Little Time''.
