"It's Up to You Petula" is a song by English band Edison Lighthouse. It was released as a non-album single, but was included on their 1971 debut release, Already.

The single became a modest international hit as a follow-up to the group's major hit during the previous year, "Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes)". It reached number 49 in the UK[1] and number 18 in New Zealand.[2] It was a minor hit in the United States and Canada.
