VeryMercurial -> RE: Favorite 1 hit wonder song? (5/28/2007 11:01:31 AM)

I searched the net and the band is Paper Lace.
I never heard of them or the song, guess I missed a few of the 1 hit wonders!

Level,
i love your taste in music.  It is so eerie that i consciously left several songs off of my list earlier and then i scrolled through the subsequent posts today and you had listed many of them:
 
"Good Time Charlie's Got The Blues" - figured others hadn't heard of it
"Baker Street" - didn't think of Rafferty as a one-hit wonder since i absolutely love "Right Down The Line" that he did
"Laid" - again, wasn't sure who would have heard of it
"Standing Outside a Phonebooth" - wasn't sure if they were one-hit wonders
"Brick" - same here
"Chevy Van" and "Lady Blue" - 2 faves i simply forgot about
 
i have about 50 or 60 "mix" CD's with tons of this stuff.  It's so cool to know others enjoy it as much as i do[:)].  Thanks again for the clips.........luci

I love music more than almost anything; and though my tastes tend to run to the heavier side of things, I love good music of any sort. From what you've posted, I think our thinking runs along the same lines [:D].
 
I definitely agree with you about Rafferty's "Right Down the Line"; here's a vid featuring the song.

Songs like "Laid", and "Brick", are from what I'm starting to see as a Golden Age for rock; I couldn't turn on the radio without hearing a terrific song, and now, well, things aren't as good, in my opinion. But it's cyclical, I hope lol.

Did you see the clip of it? Good song, and as far as I know, it was his only hit, but I could be wrong.




PavlovTrainer -> RE: Favorite 1 hit wonder song? (5/28/2007 11:42:52 AM)

My favorite one hit wonder is "Friday On My Mind" by the Easybeats. Don't hear very often, and it has a great pedigree. Trivia question for you all. What Rock and Roll Hall of Famers have a direct connection to the Easybeats???

Your favorite musicoligist,
Pavlov

You're welcome, but I hate that I couldn't find the one song for you. youTube rarely fails, but it does happen.
