Level -> 1 Hit Wonders: the extra round (3/30/2008 7:24:17 AM)
Doing this round as a way to include some I missed. Thanks to all that suggested some of these tunes, and thanks for participating. Again, this isn't done with the strictest of standards. Enjoy it for what it is, or don't.

Phin -> RE: 1 Hit Wonders: the extra round (3/30/2008 8:06:06 AM)
and Jimi is still not on the list...

quote: ORIGINAL: Phin and Jimi is still not on the list... Nope, can't do it, Phin. I do concede your point about "All Along the Watchtower", but "Crosstown Traffic", "Little Wing", "Purple Haze", "Foxy Lady", "Hey Joe", and "Voodoo Child", while maybe not chart-toppers, make him out of range for this.

TheHeretic -> RE: 1 Hit Wonders: the extra round (3/30/2008 8:39:29 AM)
Some good picks on the supplemental list, Level. Blind Melon certainly qualifies as a one-hit-wonder. OD'ing on heroin the day you hit number 1 on the charts...

Level -> RE: 1 Hit Wonders: the extra round (3/30/2008 8:45:18 AM)
Morning, Rich. I see you gave Murray a vote [:D] Blind Melon made some great music, it's just one more in a long line of rock tragedies, about Hoon.

TheHeretic -> RE: 1 Hit Wonders: the extra round (3/30/2008 8:52:39 AM)
I don't know that it was the best song on the list (I really like Black Velvet too), but that song has good associations for me.

slaveluci -> RE: 1 Hit Wonders: the extra round (3/30/2008 9:12:14 AM)
No contest for me on this one: Faith No More. What a great band and I loved their cover of "Easy."[:)]................luci

badprofessor -> RE: 1 Hit Wonders: the extra round (3/30/2008 9:42:20 AM)
I can't vote on any of these 'cuz I don't like any of these, but the Blind Melon song is alright in Grateful Dead/nouveau hippie kind of way...

ominousdominus -> RE: 1 Hit Wonders: the extra round (3/30/2008 11:26:46 AM)
I voted Blind Melon..........that list was really hard to decide on man, I actually liked a majority of those tunes.....bringing back memories.

Level -> RE: 1 Hit Wonders: the extra round (3/30/2008 11:43:52 AM)
This is a very even round, so far, only Faith No More has more than one vote. [8\|]

beargonewild -> RE: 1 Hit Wonders: the extra round (3/30/2008 11:47:03 AM)
My votes on Shakespeare's sister.

RazorJAK -> RE: 1 Hit Wonders: the extra round (3/30/2008 12:40:48 PM)
Hard to choose ONE off that list ... so I pick Shakespeare's Sister because BOTH those ladies have voices which just wrap around my manhood and carresses it tenderly.

Level -> RE: 1 Hit Wonders: the extra round (4/2/2008 4:02:20 AM)
Poll ends tonight - Shakespeare's Sister leads.

lusciouslips19 -> RE: 1 Hit Wonders: the extra round (4/2/2008 4:09:38 AM)
I voted for merideth Brooks because well, I'm a Bitch! I didnt vote for Joan Osborne because I respect her too much. her Album Relish which had the hit what if God was one of us. Well all the songs were awesome. Buy it try it shes awesome. She in the last couple of years put out a new CD. (The name escapes me)that is all remakes of great R and B covers. Songs like, These arms of mine,Loves in Need,Great 60's and 70's hits that I love and her versions great. Joan Osborn deserves more than this list so please take my advice and buy her music, you will be a fan too in MHO. edited to say: The Pussycat Dolls should be on this list. It may be too soon to call them 1 hit wonders but they have milked that song for all its worth. But we all do know that they all wish they're girlfreind was a freak like me!

Awwww, you're too softhearted to be a bitch. I agree totally about Osborne's talent, and I came awfully close to not adding her; "Right Hand Man" is a kick ass song - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVBarekpuXg Crappy quality vid, but I still like it. I did try to avoid some "newer" 1 hit artists, or this thing could have had ten more rounds [8\|]

Well except "Ray Charles head", the man in the long black coat and lets not forget "lets get naked". Woooo weee. Hot music!
