One Hit Wonders (Voter Thread) |
Welcome To The Canteen Music Dedication!! In our continued effort to bring music themes that you want, we continue this week with our Canteen voted thread of One Hit Wonders!This list was compiled from various sources. Some of you may disagree with an artist showing up in our One Hit Wonders list, but that's okay. We're not here to state that we are the authority on such matters. We're here to enjoy some music from popular artist (although, not popular for long) of their respective music eras. There are many artists/songs that are considered One Hit Wonders. However, we don't have all day and night to list them. We've gotta sleep now and again! Hehehe! We enjoy feedback. If you have requests, please ping laurenmarlowe on the thread or via FReepmail. As always, we greatly appreciate the opportunity to entertain our Troops, Veterans, and their family members. Enjoy!

I can never get the music to play. I click on the song, right? Oh well.
Here are some of the Best. If you recall, during the 80s, there was all kinds of cross-over interest in the R&B and top 10 due mainly to Prince and all his friends such as Morris Day and the Time, Sheila E., Vanity 6, etc.
As such, I would love to hear:
Innocent, Alexander O'Neil
Roses, The Deal (I may be stretching it a bit here - memory isn't what it used to be).
I Want My Girl - Jesse Johnson Revue
We don't have to take our clothes off - Jermaine Stewart
Dancing in the Sheets - Shalimar
In My House - Mary Jane Girls
Nasty Girl - Vanity 6 (Rated NC-17, IMHO)
Stay With Me Tonight - Jeffrey Osborne
Granted, a few aren't one-hit wonders - I just wore out my vinyl copies and wanted to hear them again!!!

A Soldier's PrayerL ord I pray from day to day To help me understand How Americans view their heroes And how they judge a man
If being someone famous Is looked upon with awe Something's wrong here with our values What are we fighting for
I'm in the military And proud of what I do But I need to feel some strength and love That's why I pray to you
Some of our families left us And now as years have passed I feel the burden and the stress For each day could be our last
I'm in the field of combat With bullets surrounding me There are few that care for those who've died Protecting those born free
I'm asking for some comfort Some support, and one thing more To get RESPECT and HONOR From the Americans we fought for
You and I are the heroes Fighting for our land to be free And 'tho no one has heard our names We're the heroes you and me
Our awards weren't televised No speech with tears in our eyes Why is our country too blind to see That the heroes will always be Those of us who fought for peace We're the heroes you and me
Those of us who fought for peace We're the heroes you and me. Unknown
Deus vobiscum |

"How did the ship inspection go today?"
The fishing vessel had numerous out points that need correction before he can get a decal.
Nothing major, but plenty of other stuff.
