[leethev]

re just about all the above!

I dont know about anyone else but I'm finding myself going through the above posts mentaly ticking off the songs i've heard off thinking 'Yeah that was a good song,' 'yeah that was a good song too,' 'oh yeah that that was a really good song', add infinitum!
Notables: flash in the pan - waiting for a train (wasnt some member of the band a relative of one of the guys from acdc?). scarlet fantastic - memory. sniff and the tears - drivers seat.

What about these!

Passions - Im in love with a german film star
Matthew wilder - break my stride
Baltimora - Tarzan boy
Furniture -Brilliant mind
Black-Wonderful life
Martha and the muffins -Echo beach


How can a one hit wonder be!! , the artists who wrote them must have burned themselves out on the one song and had writers block for the rest of their lives. Any way whose to say that they wont make a comeback.

Trans X living on video, that was a great one hit wonder.
i believe it may have been released a couple of times , once as a remix?
