I've always liked this song as it making me feel like i'm in an 80's time warp in Florida dancing at the New Wave clubs at the beaches with all the 80's ladies with their Madonna hairstyles back in the Great 80's....

Gosh i hope when i die that Heaven is an Eternal 80's New Wave dance club
Kinda like this video.Altered Images - I Could Be Happy

Great trip down memory lane, this thread!

My favorite one hit wonder of all time but also from the 80s would have to be Martha and The Muffins ~ Echo Beach. Already mentioned I know, but really can't be mentioned enough!

They're actually touring again right now and sadly their fabulous lead singer Chrissie Amphlett, rock chic extraordinaire has just announced she has been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis.

Do you mean The Promise by When In Rome? Electric Blue by Icehouse? I don't think Icehouse qualifies as a one hit wonder, but When In Rome does.

This one-hit wonder was not only a cool song and video, apparently it was ahead of its time with the subject matter:


YouTube - Rockwell - Somebody's Watching Me
