"'Oh! Look at Me Now'" is a 1941 song composed by Joe Bushkin, with lyrics by John DeVries. It is strongly associated with Frank Sinatra, who first recorded it with Tommy Dorsey and his orchestra,[ in an arrangement by Sy Oliver. Sinatra re-recorded the song for his 1957 'A Swingin' Affair!', this time arranged and conducted by Nelson Riddle.
