Was this a one-hit wonder in 1970… or the year 2000?

Are Frijid Pink and "Blue" from the same era?

 

The pop music of 2000 sounded much different from the pop music of 1970. Well, aside from that garage-rock revival led by the White Stripes.

But on paper? It can be hard to separate band names and song titles into different eras. Unless you remember these hit tunes.

We've gathered some one-hit wonders from 30 years apart. See if you can place them into the correct year!

  1. Baha Men "Who Let the Dogs Out?"
  2. Marmalade "Reflections of My Life"
  3. The Pipkins "Gimme Dat Ding"
  4. The Jaggerz "The Rapper"
  5. Ruff Endz "No More"
  6. Crazy Town "Butterfly"
  7. Nine Days "Absolutely (Story of a Girl)"
  8. Alive N Kickin' "Tighter, Tighter"
  9. Tee-Set "Ma Belle Amie"
  10. Wheatus "Teenage Dirtbag"
  11. White Plains "My Baby Loves Lovin'"
  12. Eiffel 65 "Blue (Da Ba Dee)"
  13. Frijid Pink "The House of the Rising Sun"
  14. Kandi "Don't Think I'm Not"

Was this a one-hit wonder in 1970… or the year 2000?

You got 12 out of 14. Only knew 3 of these songs and guessed on the rest.

12/14! If they sounded familiar I chose 1970. Never heard of them they're now! But I messed up a couple!

You got 10 out of 14
See, who says there wasn't a "Rapper" back in 1970? How did you score?

14/14. Almost TOO easy. I knew all of the 1970 ones, and a few of the 2000 ones; the rest, if I didn't know them, they were 2000. Easy-peasy.

If I knew the words to any part of the song it was 1970. If not it was 2000.🤓

8/14; never heard of any of those songs except #1. I was only 6 in 1970.
