With a Little Bit of Luck With a Little Bit of Luck "With a Little Bit of Luck" is a popular song by Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe, written for the 1956 Broadway play "My Fair Lady". It was sung by Stanley Holloway as Alfred P. Doolittle in both the original stage and film versions. It is sung by Eliza's bin man father, Alfred P. Doolittle and is about a list of everyday situations which one finds themselves in, and a desire to take the easy way out as "With a Little Bit of Luck" one's fate might change, thus avoiding any responsibility. The song
Pygmalion (play) on the subjects of class division and social mobility, and it's as enjoyable to view these subtle differences in settings and costumes as it is to imagine translators wracking their brains for their own equivalent of 'Not bloody likely'." [[Joseph Weizenbaum]] named his [[artificial intelligence]] computer program [[ELIZA]] after the character Eliza Doolittle.
