    Six pages and nobody has mentioned THE BEST One Hit Wonder of all time:

    Come on Eileen- Dexy's Midnight Runners.



    Shame on you all!

    ACK!
    Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust!

                "Yes you did, sorry no shame to you."

                ...and I also mentioned that if you're from the UK it doesn't count...

                As for:
                "in the year twenty-five, twenty-five..."

                Are we talking the original?
                Didn't he/they have more hits?

                ...and while I'm at it, how about Doctor and The Medics with their version of "Spirit in the Sky"? The two of them still tour off the back of it...I'm not even sure if they do any other songs (bar their follow up "Burn")...

                      Ah...never heard of Project Pitchfork.

                      I wasn't sure if you were meaning something like Visages cover of it...the original was by someone called Zager I think.

                              Did Survivor have any other hits aside from Eye of the Tiger? Still a major favourite here for sporting event buildups (at least in my boathouse it is).
