About this listen

Love them or hate them, One Hit Wonders stick in our brains... like melted cheese on a porcupine! Sometimes you just can’t get the tune out of your head! But why should music lovers be short changed with the 'Usual Suspects'? Nena's 99 Red Balloons? Band Aid? Why settle for 100 hits of all time when I've collected over 400 from just one decade? Every one holds its own unique story, some sad, some uplifting, and some have as much drama as a Hollywood adventure movie. Did you know that Dave Edmunds’ hit “Cruel to be Kind”, stalled at number 12 of every major chart? Did you know that rock legends Led Zeppelin are a One Hit Wonder in the UK? Did you know that Minnie Ripperton and Van McCoy (both one Hit Wonders in ‘75) both died in July ‘79? The complete trivia for the One Hit Wonders from the 70's (over 400 of them!) will make you listen to your favorite songs in a whole new light. Why accept lesser volumes that just list the top 100 songs? With information taken from Official Music Charts all over the world, we give a global overview of the one hit wonders of this special decade. With details from the Billboard Hot 100 and Canada, the UK Charts, hits from Ireland, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, and many European charts, this is the most detailed list ever researched. Indexed and cross-referenced for ease of use, whether you are a music buff or just want the answers for your local trivia night, this book is for you. With over 400 songs, over 100 pages of information, their chart positions, sales figures, trivia facts and more will provide you with hours of fun and nostalgia.
