I know nostalgia.

#19 was Ted Nugent's "Cat Scratch Fever".

[Laslo Fripp]

Jimmy Carter’s rendition of the Bunny Hop.

Onw-hit wonder? Lynn Anderson, Charley Pride and Ted Nugent had boatloads of hits.

I always liked Switching to Glide by the Kings

How to improve your writing in one easy lesson.

Before: The sailor she loved was committed to the sea and couldn’t love her back.

After: The sailor she loved thought she was a fine girl, but his wife, his lover, his lady, was the sea.

“Seasons in the Sun” seemed like perky little tune.

Then you got to “Goodbye, My friend, it’s hard to die.”

And you thought: “Wow! That got dark really fast.”

The Equals “Funky Like A Train”.

"Video Killed the Radio Star" is a song written by Trevor Horn, Geoff Downes and Bruce Woolley in 1979. It was recorded concurrently by Bruce Woolley and the Camera Club (with Thomas Dolby on keyboards) for their album English Garden and by British new wave/synth-pop group the Buggles, which consisted of Horn and Downes (and initially Woolley).

My 70s 1-hit wonders are:

“Yellow River” by Christie (a lot of the players on the record were from the Tremoloes). That song is a real toe-tapper.

“Late December” by Gypsy — a Minneapolis band w/ superb sound but lousy marketing. My favorite rock group of them all.

My favorite one-hit wonder from the Seventies is Whispering by Dr. Buzzard's Original Savannah Band (1976). This counts as a one-hit wonder according to the article's criteria because the band s only other released only reached #80 on the Hot Hundred.

Nonetheless, it's a far, far cry from Paul Whiteman's original version of Whispering, a hit late in the year 1920.

How Long Has This Been Going On? by Ace 1974

Wildfire! by Micheal Martin Murphy 1975

Love Is the Drug by Roxy Music 1975

Somebody’s Watching You! by Little Sister (of Sly&Fam,Stone)
1970

Many “one hit wonder” acts had a minor success after their one big hit. One example is The Lemon Pipers, whose big hit, “Green Tambourine,” was followed by “Rice is Nice,” which made it midway into the Top 40 charts before the band faded away.

[Blood of Tyrants]

Must be a list of songs that made the artist #1 for a time because Lynn Anderson and Charlie Pride both had many other popular tunes.

[rlmorel]

How about LINK: "Moonlight Feels Right" by Starbuck!

I don't remember any other songs by them!

[Dr. Sivana]

There ‘s so many more… Convoy (CW McCall), Timothy (Buoys), DOA (Bloodrock), maybe Spirit in the Sky (70s?) Norm Greenbaum (follow up Canned Ham did not touch Top 40.

Hard for me to think of Lynn Anderson and Randy Newman as “One Hit Wonders”, as they were pretty established.

“Short people” sure enraged a lot, well, short people.....

[albie]

Mississippi Queen is the best. Seasons in the Sun the worst
