Who are your favorite "one hit wonders"? Among mine are:
Soft Cell- "Tainted Love"
Modern English- "Melt With You"
JoBoxers- "Just Got Lucky"
After The Fire- "Der Kommissar"
Urban Dance Squad- "Deeper Shade of Soul"
The Standells- "Dirty Water"
Iron Butterfly- "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida"
Music Explosion- "Little Bit O'Soul"
Midnight Oil- "Beds Are Burning"
Count Five- "Psychotic Reaction"
Well, I named 10 and I certainly could go on and on, but would take "the fun" out of this thread....So, what are your favorite "one-hit-wonders"?

Wooley Booley (sp?)
I guess technically the band that did Wooley Booley isn't a one-hit wonder, but rather a two-hit wonder. They also did "Little Red Riding Hood."
Cool band, but I always forget their name.

Was Not Was...... "Walk the Dinosaur"
Really to bad. This song did represent the band very well at all.
Was Not Was could very well be the last of the truly great funk rock bands.
"IMHO"
