Where To Watch
How well do you remember the one hit wonders of the seventies?
I WONDER how you'll do on this quiz.
The term "One-Hit Wonder" is a bit of a subjective term. Sometimes a song can break the threshold into mainstream popularity, but that doesn't mean that the rest of their music wasn't worthy of the same treatment. Sometimes a band only stays together long enough to produce a single hit, but that doesn't mean there wasn't more on the way. And sometimes an already successful musician with loads of hits begins a side project that produces a single hit that will forever be known as a "One-Hit Wonder."
In any case, these songs get a bad rep, as they're considered anomalies in a band or musician's career. But One-Hit wonders deserve some love in their own hall of fame, so today, we're quizzing you on the lyrics and titles of songs that could be considered One-Hit Wonders.

"You got 9 out of 10" -----"You're a real quiz-hit-wonder!" ---I got number 8 wrong because I never heard of the song "Cars" so I didn't know the lyrics.
I didn't know that one either, but made a lucky guess. Missed on the lyrics to "Play that Funky Music," even though it was a staple on the jukebox in the restaurant where I worked.
You got 10 out of 10

10/10…Boy, it’s been awhile since I’ve seen that score 😲
10 outa 10 . Hurray for me!
9 of 10. Oh Yeah, I was there! I missed #8, Gary Numan's Cars. I heard the song often, but the lyrics never stuck with me. So many memories! Full disclosure, I was a disco hater when around my buddies but on Friday nights, I hit the disco clubs with a few of the neighborhood girls. I think by now, the statute of limitations has run out on my sneaky transgression with my old buddies!
I wasnt a disco f an either buedt i went to the clubs and bars dancd to pick up girls.it worked
Yup, when it came to meeting girls, all bets are off! Good Times!
10/10. Love the One-Hit Wonders.
