1978 single by Frank Mills
"Music Box Dancer" is an instrumental piece by Canadian musician Frank Mills that was an international hit in the late 1970s. It features an arpeggiated piano theme in C-sharp major designed to resemble a music box, accompanied by other instruments playing a counterpoint melody as well as a wordless chorus. Most modern piano music sheets have the song in the key of C major. Mills wrote and recorded "Music Box Dancer" in 1974, but it did not become a single until 1978. It reached #3 on the Canadian Adult Contemporary chart and #47 on the Canadian pop chart, and after being released in the United States in January 1979, it reached #3 on the Billboard Hot 100. The single also reached #14 on the Australian Singles Chart (Kent Music Report), #1 in Switzerland, and the top ten of many European and Asian pop music charts. It additionally peaked at #4 on the US Cash Box Top 100.
