Leapy Lee (born Graham Pulleyblank, but later changed his name to Lee Graham, 2 July 1939, Eastbourne, England) is a singer, best known for his 1968 single "Little Arrows", which reached Number 2 in the UK Singles Chart and was a top 40 country and pop hit in the United States.
The song "Little Arrows", written by Albert Hammond and Mike Hazelwood, was also the title track of his first album, released in 1968 on Decca Records. It reached Number 71 in the Billboard Hot 200 album chart.
"Little Arrows" became a hit in the UK reaching Number 2 for Decca Records. In the United States, the song reached #16 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and #11 on the country chart. Although he never reached the United States pop chart again, Lee had two more country hits there with "Good Morning" in 1970 and "Every Road Leads Back To You" in 1975.
He later lived in Saudi Arabia, before opening a bar in Majorca, Spain with Andrew Ray, the son of English comedian Ted Ray. He featured on the third episode of season nineteen of BBC Television's Never Mind the Buzzcocks in 2006.
Between 1999 and 2001 Lee and his family, notably the twins in latter editions, featured prominently in the BBC Television series Passport to the Sun, fronted firstly by Liza Tarbuck then Nadia Sawalha. Leapy Lee now owns and runs "Leapys Bar" in Santa Ponsa, Mallorca. Lee is also a regular columnist with the Euro Weekly News, an English newspaper in the Costa del Sol, Spain.
Lee released a 40th anniversary EP, Little Arrows II, on 1 March 2010.

Leapy and Andrew used to trip in our flat in Kilburn in the sixties. It wasn't just hippies ;-) Didn't help his music a lot.

Ah. Why can't love songs on the radio be like this? I'd rather hear about a couple finding love again than about S&M. :

My mum has just returned from a holidat in Spain-she told me that she was reading a very good report in a paper accredited to Leapy Lee-could it be same one who used to sing little arrows-oh,how we all loved that tune.
So, I checked up and it is-well done-a lovely reminder of those now far off, but innocent days.
