Who Was Your Favorite One Hit Wonder


What was your favorite one hit wonder song, and who performed it? You can name one or a few.

I loved (and still do) "Voices Carry" performed by Till Tuesday.

C'mon. Put on your thinking caps.
128x128buscis2
I hate rap but before rap: The Jags "The Rapper". I can't remember which Phili. member formed another one-hit band with "Ahlea" ("here we go again") but THAT was another excellent one-hit with great production.

And lets not forget Gary and the Playboys "This Diamond Ring". Still unique and listenable (and I hate that era).

I have to thank everyone for making my fav's list:
"Green eyed lady" sugarloaf Iseekheils
"spirit in the sky" normal greenb Reubent
"sky high" by jigsaw Jmslaw
"vehicle" The ides of march Fmpnd
"blinded by the light" Manfred manns earthband Jeffloistarca
"Smoke of a distant fire" sanford townsend band Ghostrider45
"twilight zone" golden earing Exertfluffer

Buscis2 - 'til Tuesday had all great albums as does Aimee Mann (bassist and singer of 'tT). If you haven't heard them, you are really missing out. 'tT only got better and better. (Too cerebral for radio pop).
Oh man! I can't believe "Radar Love" by golden earing isn't on here. How could you Exertfluffer?
Walking on Sunshine - Katrina and the Waves

My favourite one hit wonder, unless I'm totally ignorant and they have produced a plethora of seminal works since then...

Billy-Ray Cyrus anyone...?
Mississippi Queen, by Mountain

We could come up with another category--most annoying songs to subliminally suggest to your coworkers so it ends up going through their heads all day driving them crazy . .

Something like "Muskrat Love. . . "
