Luck Be a Lady – Frank Sinatra
Onto something softer, Luck Be a Lady is the story of a gambler hoping to win over a girl. Although originally written by Frank Loesser, the song is part of the Sinatra culture and it is probably most known for the scene in Mrs. Doubtfire when Robin Williams’ character is receiving a makeover to turn into Mrs. Euphegenia Doubtfire.

The song is so important for the American popular culture that it even had a Western film series made after it, starting with Kenny Rogers as The Gambler. Moreover, England players used it as a dressing room anthem for the 2007 Rugby World Cup.
