The Everly Brothers were anything but one-hit wonders.

This is THE classic one-hit wonder :rotf2:

Ever wonder how the expression "bubblegum music" was born? Now you know.

If Keith Moon played piano he'd probably play like Jerry Lee Lewis ..

I had a girlfriend once who said that anyone who she married would have to sing this at her wedding.

As far as I know, she's still single :biglaugh:

They weren't a one hit wonder, but if they released this ditty before Mrs Brown and Silhouettes, they may well have been :yak5:

Voted by Dave Barry as the worst rock and roll song ever--and Donna Summer's version was even worse :rotf2:

I don't necessarily agree with Barry ;)

This is why I don't agree with Barry--the lyrics are insipid, but there are at least 20 jazz arrangements of the melody--some better than this, some worse.

John Miles . Funny I was thinking of this guy last nite at work and Sea Dangles had a post this morning of a concert in 76 and I was there and this guy was back up. Scary. He maybe had another hit but all I really liked was this tune.
