I think mine may be "Ah, Leah!" by Donny Iris - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DqKJ9mEkq2c

The clothing at the time, though....... ahem.
 
Also in the running, is "Burning Heart", by Vandenberg. - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjUBeAZZpbg

Brilliant song, Rich. Here's the 17 plus minute version (I know your pc might not be able to see it though ). Damn good tune.

"The Hanster Dance" rocks... it gives me the {giggles} when they sing.. yes, its a real song, the local station I listen to plays it.

My favorite one-hit-wonder song has always been "Groove is in the Heart," by Deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelite!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mKTCW4oxS6I

Edited to add: Oh, and "What I Like about You" was by the Romantics, not the Producers.
