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!

Okay, I spent all day on this, and I think I may have it down (had a lot of 'spainin to do to Mr. Mabelkitty, but that's another story).
Anyway, I am putting up two songs now, but I don't have my own website that could play the songs. Can I FReepmail someone my little site so someone could download them and host them for me? They are mp3s

Great! Thanks.
They are still downloading, but I'll FReep you url when they are done. They are not one hit wonders, as I wanted to make sure it worked so I chose some really classic old ones. I hope they are worthy.

Another one hit wonder (and a good one)--Noel Harrison, Windmills of Your Mind, from The Thomas Crown Affair (1968). One an Academy Award.
