Jimi Hendrix was also a 'one hit wonder', given that his only hit was with his cover of Bob Dylan's "All Along the Watchtower", but, like Denver, his influence on music (and indeed, his talent), went far beyond any pop-chart success.
And reading that makes me wish I'd bough the John Denver vinyl records I saw at the thrift store, so I could send them to ya, Kiro. Maybe if they're still there next time I go, I will.
That would be awesome. I only have one non-compiled album, an 8-track tape of the 1978 album I Want to Live, and that's my mom's, who no longer has an 8-track player.
If the records arent in bad condition (unfortunatly lots are scratched six ways to Sunday) and I find them again, I'll most certainly buy them and send them to you.

I've got a few One Hit Wonders on my playlist, but I can't remember them all at the moment (and I'm away from home). One that immediately comes to mind, though, is <i>Right Now</i> (possibly the wrong title) by SR-71.
It's a catchy radio song, and I usually enjoy listening to it when I come across it during shuffle every now and then.
'Movies'. But yeah.Originally Posted by Sephex

SEXY McAWESOME TO YOU, MISTER
I recall that song. Wasn't it the theme song in a movie?
Take care all.
Good times.

Dead or Alive: You Spin Me Right Round
And then... Poof! They're gone.
This one song by Jimmy Ray, I think it's called "Are you Jimmy Ray?"
I thought it was cool back in the day...but if they played it today everyone would be like...what the heck is this!?!
I just thought of another one: New Radicals - <i>You Get What You Give</i>. Good song, but I've heard nothing else from the New Radicals. It very possibly could just be me, though.
I've been listening to the Dope remake of that song lately. It's a good song.
That's because shortly after that, they were in an accident with a semi in their tour bus. One of the members died, and the other is paralyzed for life.
Yeah they only put out that one CD.
