Birthday remembrances for American pop singer/songwriter Buzz Clifford, who earned US #OneHitWonder honors in 1961 with his early rock and roll novelty “Baby Sittin’ Boogie.” The single spent 10 weeks on the US #Billboard #Top40, peaking at #6. #BuzzClifford #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
Remembering Minnesota’s very own Larry Verne, who #DOTD in 2013. In 1960, Verne earned US US #OneHitWonder honors when his satirical, comedic novelty “Mr. Custer” spent 10 weeks on the US #Billboard #Top40, including one week at the #1 spot! #LarryVerne #MrCuster #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
That’s where this song really lives... under rented chandeliers while a dad tries not to cry and his daughter absolutely knows he’s trying not to cry. Heartland never found another #Top40 hit. They didn’t really need one… they’d written themselves into the wedding. #Heartland #OneHitWondered
“I Loved Her First” went to #1 on Billboard’s country chart & crossed over to #34 on the US #Top40. Then the single moved into wedding halls, banquet rooms, and father-daughter dances everywhere. (clip ‘borrowed’ from @laurenhuhnerkoch9854 on YouTube) #Heartland #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
The week ending October 7, 2006, Huntsville, Alabama country group Heartland earned US #OneHitWonder honors when their mid-tempo country ballad “I Loved Her First” entered the US #Billboard #Top40 at #39. The iconic wedding song spent 5 weeks on the chart, peaking at #34. #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
Yepper, "Swamp Witch" was his first US #Top40 hit, spending 1 week at #39. Then "Spiders & Snakes" (#3), "My Girl Bill" (#12), "Wildwood Weed" (#7), "Your Bulldog Drinks Champagne" (#24), and "I Got Stoned And I Missed It" spent 2 weeks at #37.
Someone once told me Jim Stafford was a one-hit wonder 🤣
I don't have a song with creepy bugs, reptiles, or bats... but in 1966, Neal Hefti earned US #OneHitWonder honors when his self-penned “Batman Theme” spent 4 weeks on the US #Billboard #Top40, peaking at #35. #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
In 1979, Trevor Horn earned US #OneHitWonder honors as a member of The Buggles. Their “Video Killed The Radio Star” spent 1 week on the US #Billboard #Top40 at #40. A rare #OneWeekWonder… and, yeah, the whole first and last video on MTV thingie, too. #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
“Hold On” by Ian Gomm climbed to #18 on the #Billboard #Top40… his only hit in the US as a performer… but between Brinsley Schwarz, “Cruel to Be Kind,” and his own little slice of late-’70s power pop, Gomm left fingerprints all over the era. #IanGomm #OneHitWondered
A version of “Cruel To Be Kind,” co-written by Ian Gomm & Nick Lowe, eventually earned Lowe US #OneHitWonder honors in 1979 when the catchy power pop single spent 10 weeks on the US #Billboard #Top40, peaking at #12. #NickLowe #IanGomm #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
Ian Gomm spent years helping shape the sound that became pub rock before scoring a US #Top40 hit.... Gomm joined Brinsley Schwarz in 1970, helping them evolve from country-rock toward the stripped-down pub-rock sound that helped set the stage for Britain’s punk/new wave era #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
The week ending October 6, 1979, British singer/songwriter & guitarist Ian Gomm earned US #OneHitWonder honors when his pub rockin' "Hold On" entered the US #Billboard #Top40 at #34. The single spent 5 weeks on the chart, peaking at #18. #IanGomm #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
A perfect choice from the 'blaster...! San Francisco Latino jazz/rock fusion group Malo earned US #OneHitWonder honors in 1972 with this smooth, laid-back love song. “Suavecito” spent eight weeks on the US #Billboard #Top40 that year, peaking at #18. #Malo #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
Nice pull from isuma, the Bluesky Elder... American production team 20 Fingers, featuring rapper Gillette, earned US #OneHitWonder honors in 1994 when “Short Dick Man” spent 18 weeks on the US #Billboard #Top40, peaking at #14. #20Fingers #Gillette #ShortDickMan #OneHitWondering #MusicSky
#2HitTuesdays Interestingly, Eddie Rambeau co-wrote “The Push And Kick.” The Pennsylvania singer/songwriter earned US #OneHitWonder honors in 1965 when his polished, big-sounding cover of “Concrete And Clay” spent two weeks at #35 on the US #Billboard #Top40. #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
#2HitTuesdays Yep, Strawberry Alarm Clock had a 2nd US #Top40 hit… their follow-up “Tomorrow.” The single was rushed out in 1967 to capitalize on momentum. Later singles “Sit With the Guru” & “Barefoot in Baltimore” reached only #65 and #67. So: two US Top 40 hits, not one #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
