>>You Light Up My Life by Debby Boone.<<

Gack! How about “These Boots Are Made for Walkin’ by Nancy Sinatra...
If these two hadn’t had famous fathers, neither one would’ve gotten even ONE hit.

That’s why the record company’s A&R people (Artists and Repertoire”) gave them songs that were sure hits no matter who sang them (You light up my life, Boots)

Sinatra had 22 top 100 songs (including another #1) and Debby Boone had 7. Are you unsure of the concept of one-hit wonders?
