That one freaked me out totally at a very tender age (I was 10 FFS!)
How about: Laurie Anderson's O Superman (found the link but haven't figured out how to post the full thing - sorry.
Oh - apparently I have. That's OK then.

Hi Amyghost...and it's the countdown to this year's Eurovision already, plenty more where that came from...

Does the song "Wherever I Will Go" by The Calling count as a one hit wonder. I can't really remember any other hits that they had.
And speaking of Euro song fests, there's another one hit wonder I love that came to one-hit-wonderdom via the competition: 'Eres Tu' by Mocadades.

Yes, I actually remember that - I'd still like to hear more from Lordi, Conchita and Abba (whatever happened to them?)

While that is, unfortunately, the song that they're known for, this is the first song I heard from them (on Headbanger's Ball, of all places), and thought it was much more deserving of being a hit. Alas, everyone wanted the bee girl.

What is really funny is that the bass player looks a hell of a lot like I did at the time this song came out.
