I could sit here babbling off the titles of one hit wonders in pop music for hours, if not weeks, but I'll spare you the suffering.

My all time favorite one hit wonder is from 1966. They're Coming To Take Me Away Ha Haaa! by Napoleon the XIV has the historic distinction of not only being the first rap song, but technically it's also the first punk song. They always said Napoleon was years ahead of his time and I guess he was.
