The song "Wishin' and Hopin'," by Hal David and Burt Bacharach, was first recorded by Dionne Warwick in the spring of 1963. It was on the "B"-side of her single "This Empty Place" (two songs were recorded on a 45, one on each side, and the expected hit always went on the "A" side). But it did not become a top ten hit in the US until Dusty Springfield recorded it in 1964.

The original of the best-known song of that name was by Free, although it has been covered by Joe Lynn Turner, Gary Moore and many others. Black Sabbath also did a track called Wishing Well.
