Ok, I decided to post a few I liked per decade. Of course, I had to "google" to find out exactly when the songs were released. There are really too many to list, though.

1970s:

Mississippi Queen-Mountain
One Toke Over the Line-Brewer and Shipley
Play That Funky Music-Wild Cherry


1980s:

Funkytown-Lipps, Inc.
Key Largo-Bertie Higgins
Mickey-Tony Basil

1990s:

I Touch Myself-The Divinyls-great video, too!
Walkin' in Memphis-Mark Kohn
What is Love-Haddaway

2000s:
Remains to be seen!

I also loved "Shannon" by Henry Gross (I believe that was his name)...if I am not mistaken, it was a "One Hit Wonder" in the 1970s. It was poignant because that was my best friend's name, but he wrote the song about a dog that obviously drowned.

This was a fun topic! Thanks!

M. Diva

Someone named Carissa Darling doing "I'm Not Lisa", which was done by Jessi Colter; couldn't find a version with her.

How 'bout "Cars"... by Gary Neumann, I think?

I love all the space age techno Synth in that song. =)
How about the Pina Colada Song?

Level, this thread is awesome, you officially rock in my book, lol. =)

Not so much a one hitter (heh heh), but it's my thread, so....
 
I believe this version is by Helen Reddy; it's "I Don't Know How To Love Him", originally, I think, sung in the musical Jesus Christ Superstar. This vid is from my favorite tv show, House.
