Another big-ass set of music polls. Round 3 of 8. That means, if you don't see a favorite here, look at the other 7 before bitching. If it's not on those, either I missed it, or it sucks.

These initial 8 rounds will last until Wednesday evening at 7:00 central time. Then we'll put each rounds winner into a final poll. Weeeee..... Thanks for voting and commenting, as always, I appreciate it.

Another song of theirs I like; this live version of "Welcome to the Pleasuredome" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_c01OpiCvoM

It takes almost 2 minutes to get into it, but worth the wait, IMO.

Here in Canada, Frankie Goes To Hollywood had that one big hit and that was about it.

I just got this from Wiki cos my memory is a bit non existant right now.....
The group's debut single "Relax" was famously banned by the BBC while at number six in the charts, and subsequently topped the UK singles chart for five consecutive weeks, going on to enjoy prolonged chart success throughout 1984 and ultimately becoming the seventh best-selling UK single of all time (as of May 2006). Following the follow-up success of "Two Tribes" and "The Power of Love", FGTH became only the second act in the history of the UK charts to reach number one with their first three singles; the first being Gerry and the Pacemakers in 1964.

Frankie wasnt a one hit wonder, they did two tribes and relax and power of love, so they are three hit wonders :D

I'd call it a tie between Louie Louie (Hot Chocolate also does a great version) and Bang a Gong which is not my favourite T Rex song. T Rex was also not a one hit wonder--Telegram Sam, anybody?

How weird is it that I'm torn between Danny O'Keefe and The Mary Jane Girls?

I have eclectic tastes, what can I say? And, as for T-Rex, I love, love, love "Jeepster." Hearing it in "Death Proof" rocked!

Hi luci I'm surprised that the MJ girls haven't received any votes at all.

Sigh. No accounting for taste

. I really thank you for the time you take rounding up these clips. Great music bringing back great memories. So what if it's not scientifically perfect according to everyone's standards. Geesh, people. Show me someone else who cares enough about us to remind us of so much schlocky music and take the time to find the videos. Stop dickering about who is truly a "one hit wonder" already and give Level his much-deserved props

. He's my hero......................luci

Since I saw "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back", I liked Jay's views and opinions.

So, based on this list, I'll have to voice my vote for Morris Day and the Time.
