One Hit wonders...I wonder if they will ever make a come back?

Is there anything more insulting to an artist than being remembered as a one hit wonder?....no?.... yeah I agree, on the upside though at least we do ‘remember’ them in one way or the other. So let’s go down memory lane shall we, I had so many cute and hilarious memories from my childhood while browsing through these. Hope they spark some memories for you too, happy Friday * insert huge smile*

• Wheatus- Teenage Dirtbag ( 2000) this is STILL one of my favourite tunes, I was 12 when it came out and all my white friends used to pump it at our slumber parties aaaah so young, so naïve, so bright eyed and bushy tailed and so skinny I think I weighed like 45kgs *sigh*

• Los Del Rio- Macarena ( 1996) hahahahah this dance was all the craze, I remember my dad asking me to teach it to him so he could bust out some ‘moves’ at his work Christmas party. As fate would have it there was no baby sitter available that Saturday night and I was forced to witness the horror of him grabbing his backside and wiggling his waist * pukes a little in mouth from flash backs*

• Baha Men- Who let the dogs out ( 2000) yeah this one was big hey, looking back with more wisdom the lyrics were actually rather lame…but it’s one of those songs that I still sing along to * hangs head in shame*

• Right Said Fred- I’m too sexy ( 1991) I’m too sexy for my blog….too sexy for my blog… Oh T stop it, you have no time to record an album you silly sexy talented lil blogger you

• Survivor- Eye of the tiger ( 1982) I wasn’t even a twinkle in my daddy’s eye when it came out but this song was written for me ( true story) I pump this song  at ignorant levels when I’m on my way to my kick boxing classes  ( which I haven’t been to in ages because I want people to love me for my personality and not just my hot bod….I kid…I kid. Laugh out loud. Smiley)

• Sinead O’Connor- Nothing compares to you ( 1990) what a song gosh! When I heard it I couldn’t wait to fall in love…fast forward to 2009 and I the words  “it’s been 7hours and 15 days since you took your love away” were no longer just words I sang along to but words that cut seriously deep. But him and I are great friends now ( lol no really, we are and I’m glad, he is an amazing man) I downloaded this song like 3min ago and I’m playing it right now……

• Europe- The final countdown ( 1986) IT’S THE FINAL COUNTDOWN, this song means business. Ok so I have nothing to say about this song I think I’m still feeling tender from the previous song, allow me a sec to summon my humour.

• Lou Bega- Mambo No.5 (1999) this song was played at all out school discos good gosh they killed it…dead.

• Aqua- Barbie Girl ( 1997) “ I’m a Barbie girl in a Barbie world, made in plastic it’s fantastic. You can brush my hair undress me everywhere” did u know this was Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian’s nursery rhyme when they were little? So overtly sexual yikes…and we wonder why those two turned out the way they did * rolls eyes*

• Vanilla Ice- Ice Ice Baby ( 1990) his rapping was so terrible he had black men world over  rethinking the two career paths they had (namely being a rapper or pro athlete) our brothers were looking for a ‘real job’. But alas, that only lasted for a minute and they were back on that ‘ hustling grind’

• The Weather Girls- It’s raining men (1979) how cheesy is that? A group named weather girls with a song about rain????? ….boy oh boy how I wish it would rain Asian  men, even though I’ve found my lil Asian stud but still…it would be nice you know…just to look…ok maybe stare -_-  * makes mental note to not mention this post to the Asian stud*

• Afroman- Because I got high ( 2001) This will always remain a stoners anthem…. I will assume Afroman got so high he forgot that one needs to release more than one song to sustain a career.
