They Were There....Then They were Gone

[del]

If you want a one hit wonder, how about Zager and Evans "In The Year 2525"? It was only released on a 45, and it was on both sides of the 45.

they're coming to take me away (ha,ha)-napoleon XIII
only released on 45-one side ran the tape forward, the other side ran the tape backwards.

without delving into the emulation bands that usually follow a wave of popularity (think the Trixters of glam metal) I have to admit that the early 90s, pre-grunge, one hit wonders are some of my favorites..

How about Extreme? My boyfriend (at the time) used to play me that one song, "More Than Words"

At the time I thought it was so cool and romantic, now if I ever hear it I want to throw up! {Because it's a cheesy song, and he was a cheesy guy! }
