One Hit wonder Contrib thread for later battle.

Please include the Artist/Band and Title with the Youtube link. If the Youtube does not resolve, we have no way to know the song/artist.


I'll open with:
dexys midnight runners come on eileen
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oc-P8oDuS0Q

Eddy Grant - Electric Avenue


Nena- 99 Luftballons

Jim, "Come On Eileen" wasn't even Dexy's Midnight Runners best hit*, nevermind only hit.


* That would be There There, My Dear!

Anyhoo, I digress...

Or, what about this classic?


ps. If Dexy's only had one hit in the US, you are forgiven, Jim, but your country isn't for not making them have more hits! :p

Dexy's only had the one in the US.

Can people please include the Artist/Band and Title with the Youtube link. If the Youtube does not resolve, we have no way to know the song/artist.

I will add the classic:
In the Year 2525 by Zager & Evans

Mickey by Toni Basil

Timothy by The Buoys



The Monster Mash by Bobby "Boris" Pickett and the Cryptkickers



Louie, Louie by The Kingsmen





Okay, I'm too geeky to avoid mentioning this, even though it seems to have been ignored by the US charts:

Doctorin' the TARDIS by The Timelords.

The Swingers - Counting the Beat.


The Vapors - Turning Japanese.

Jane Child - Don't Wanna Fall in Love

Jim asked me to run this one for him this week, so it'll be starting up tomorrow. If anyone has any more suggestions, please post them! :)
