    Edie Brickell and the New Bohemians had a moderate hit with this one.


    Diznee Land is a great song. Here's another 1 hit wonder from around the same time:

    3 Strange Days is a good one. Totally forgot about it.

    Not sure about that Edie song. Although, I have to confess, she's been on my personal Classic Beauties list for a long time now.

    The 80's seemed to be the Golden age for 1 hit wonders.

    I stand corrected.

    Not one hit wonder but in the same spirit of your post.

    I once heard a radio debate about whether the Grateful Dead qualified as a "one hit wonder" because the only top 40 song they had was "Touch of Grey".

    I didn't know that about either and figured I was the only person that even remembered the Alarm.

    Haha, Saga! I remember thinking they could be the next Rush. Yeah, not so much....

    When I was in high school, I wrote a percussion ensemble piece based on the keyboard solo in this song and the beginning of Changes by Yes.
