Backstreet Boys? Britney? Sinead O'connor? Celine? Soft Cell? MJ twice? Madonna twice? The only Best Of list these stinkers belong on is Best Music To Repel A Terrorist List.....

Clapton is an icon but Wonderful Tonight makes me want to hurl.


Not from where I sit. That song is absolutely Lucy and I. The only difference would be "she brushes her long BROWN hair", otherwise that song sums up our life together.

Her being the most beautiful woman in the world and me being the luckiest man in the world to have her next to me.

I guess it's all in the way you listen to it.

06. Deep Blue Something - Breakfast at Tiffany's


This is a great song. Also, an epitome of a one hit wonder.

Just remembered...

Afternoon Delight by the "something sunshine band" or Starlight Vocal Band ? this should be considered the SUPER epitome of a one hit wonder - that song won the "song of the year" Grammy. Of course that was a couple of years before Milly Vanilly...
