Imin2u, AWESOME!!! "To sir with Love". Such a great tune.

Makes me think of "Ode to Billy Joe" by Bobbie Gentry.

I think that was 1967?

And Papa said to Mama as he passed around the blackeyed peas
"Well, Billy Joe never had a lick of sense, pass the biscuits, please"
"There's five more acres in the lower forty I've got to plow"
And Mama said it was shame about Billy Joe, anyhow
Seems like nothin' ever comes to no good up on Choctaw Ridge
And now Billy Joe MacAllister's jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge.

Music was so cool then.

'One Toke Over The Line(sweet Jesus)'by Brewer and Shipley

I am a big fan of "Green-Eyed Lady" by Sugarloaf although for the record they are not a one hit wonder. They had another great hit with "Don't Call Us, We'll Call You" in 1975.

Several other of my favorite one hit wonders have also been mentioned here including "Incense and Peppermints" by the Strawberry Alarm Clock (they, too, had a second hit with "Tomorrow" off the same album), "Vehicle" by the Ides of March, "Black Betty" by Ram Jam, and "Smoke from a Distant Fire" by the Sanford/Townsend Band.

My all-time favorite one hit wonder (and there are many from which to choose) is probably "Play that Funky Music" by Wild Cherry. You can never get enough of that song.

Here are a few more of my favorites:

"Get It On" by Chase (one of the best bands of all time)

"How Long" by Ace

"More Today than Yesterday" by Spiral Staircase

"Journey to the Center of the Mind" by the Amboy Dukes

"Hold Your Head Up" by Argent (believe it or not that was their only Top 40 single)

"Funky Nassau-Part 1" by The Beginning of the End

"Hocus Pocus" by Focus

"Precious and Few" by Climax

"Right Place Wrong Time" by Doctor John (his only hit)

"Frday on My Mind" by the Easybeats

"All Right Now" by Free

"Nobody But Me" by the Human Beinz

"Dancing in the Moonlight" by King Harvest

"Green Tambourine" by the Lemon Pipers

"The Horse" by Cliff Nobles & Co.

"Life is a Rock (But the Radio Rolled Me)" by Reunion

"The Boys are Back in Town" by Thin Lizzy

"Polk Salad Annie" by Tony Joe White

"Get Together" by the Youngbloods

and

"Smiling Faces Sometimes" by the Undisputed Truth

By the way, The Classics IV had five hits including the greats "Spooky," "Stormy'" and "Traces."
