"Oh My Goodness" is a song by English singer-songwriter Olly Murs, from his second studio album, In Case You Didn't Know (2011). Written by Murs, Adam Argyle and Martin Brammer, it was released by Epic Records as the album's third and final single on 1 April 2012. The song is a "love at first sight" story about a man falling for an attractive girl and wanting to be with her. It garnered a positive reception from critics for having upbeat catchability along with colourful instrumentation.

"Oh My Goodness" became Murs's sixth UK top-20 hit, reaching a peak of number 13. It also reached the top 40 in countries like Ireland, Belgium, Germany, and Austria. The accompanying music video for the song, directed by Marcus Lundin, features Murs being smitten by a girl and looks all around the shopping centre to find her. Murs promoted the song by making television appearances in shows like The Graham Norton Show, This Morning, and Friday Download.

Murs wrote the song with Argyle and Brammer after being inspired by seeing an attractive girl whilst on a lunch break from recording sessions for the In Case You Didn't Know album in summer 2011, and the song tells the story of a man who falls in love with a girl at first sight, and that his lack of rationale does not matter to him as he is "dreaming of a life that anybody else would die for". In an interview with Channel 4 music show Freshly Squeezed, Murs added: 'It's kind of about love at first sight, really. That moment when you see a really attractive girl, and the video reflects that with the storyline.' A short instrumental of the song's chorus acts as the theme tune to his ITV2 documentary series Olly: Life on Murs.

The music video for "Oh My Goodness" was teased with a short 30 second clip on VEVO a week before its premiere, and was first released onto YouTube and VEVO on 24 February 2012 at a total length of three minutes and eleven seconds. The video was shot in the new Westfield Stratford City shopping complex in east London in January 2012, and was directed by Marcus Lundin (who also directed the video for Murs' previous single, "Dance with Me Tonight"). In the video whilst going up an escalator with friends, Murs sees an attractive girl on the escalator going in the opposite direction. Instantly attracted to her, Murs, unknown to her, gives chase after her through the shopping centre – tearing through shop displays, knocking over waiters and using a segway before finally catching up with her at the video's end.
