It was a big hit which led to Debby Boone winning a grammy.

Can't think of any favorite one hit wonders but these 2 songs from the 70's got a lot of play time on the radio. Never remember any other songs from these 2 singers.

Paul Davis had several other hits...
65 Love Affair
Sweet Life
Cool Night

and two Country Number ones...
You're Still New to Me with Marie Osmond
Won't Take Less Than Your Love with Tanya Tucker

This is another one that got a lot airtime back in the 70's why it did I'll never know.

Bertie Higgins - Key Largo

[youtube]Ru2tsT32pHA[/youtube]

Nice grab (even though my Stepfather would argue the one hit wonder thing). We used to plug in Bertie a lot fishing out on the Gulf of Mexico.

 

[Wimbo]

Not sure if they qualify for One Hit Wonder, but pretty close to it. Good song.

Too bad more people didn't realize Aldo Nova had several good songs and was great in concert.

Another 2-hit wonder.

Ratt - Round and Round

[youtube]0u8teXR8VE4[/youtube]

What??? Ratt had a bunch of good songs. They were one of my favorite bands back in the day. Several good albums.


Here's one:

And since no one else has done it, I will. I love it. Why not??

But this version is better.

Still making em ABQ. We are down in the Keys in another month and me and my brother plan on going out a few times with my Stepfather. We will probably let him slide in some Bertie. It makes him pretty dang happy.

My son is old enough that he will probably get to come out with us too. I can't wait!
