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.

The old saying, "You made your bed, now lie in it" is holding true.

I can't get this fucking Till Tuesday song out of my head!

They weren't kidding. Voice DO Carry. I was humming it last night while listening to the Thelma Houston that Vayasteve reminded me of.

I'm losing it.
Ozfly, Al Kooper wrote This Diamond Ring, he played on Dylan's Highway 61 Revisited, formed The Blues Project and the original (and best) Blood, Sweat and Tears, and Super Session with Mike Bloomfield. The one hit wonder of This Diamond Ring was performed by Gary Lewis and The Playboys. Gary Lewis is the son of Jerry Lewis.

Other one hit wonders:
Fire—The Crazy World of Arthur Brown (they put on an amazing live show)
Dominique— The Singing Nun (I hated that song)
Eve of Destruction—Barry McGuire
Good Morning Britain—Aztec Camera
The Way—Fastball
Crazy—Icehouse (they had lots of hits in Austraila, but only one here)
Are You Ready-Pacific Gas and Electric-the long version
Signs-Five Man Electrical Band-Tesla did a later version, but I think the Electrical version is much better
Hot Smoke and Sasafrass-The Bubble Puppy-garage band extraordinare
Reflections of My Life-The Marmalade-serious, sad pop
Where Evil Grows-The Poppy Family
