Cover of a one-hitter is better than the original....

For the longest time, they were one of the best one-hit wonders.

11 years ago Kiesza blew me away with her performance on the David Letterman show. I was sure she would be huge. I followed her on Facebook.



I just saw she has a new album coming out. In 2017 she got a severe brain injury. Uber accident in Toronto. That put a stop to her career.

I hope she's still good. Wish her the best. I would love to have 1 hit song but would hate to be a 1 hit wonder.

They were actually a "two hit wonder". "Radar Love" in the 70's and "Twilight Zone" in the 80's.

My favorite one hit wonder is probably "Spirit In The Sky" by Norman Greenbaum.

A close second would be "Werewolves of London" by Warren Zevon.

I guess, technically, that was his biggest hit... but he was so damn good, so under appreciated... so many good songs, songs so much better than Werewolves of London...
