Has this been submitted yet?



(Also, does it count? Apparently Deee-Lite had a whole bunch of #1's on the dance chart.)

Wait, yes. Let's just camp it the hell up!

[Patrick]

So many good submissions tonight! I'll add the ones that have been mentioned in this thread, along with Ace's pick(s), and then I think we'll have a good batch to play with!

Don't worry if you didn't get your fave in this round. We can do this a million times and still have awesome one hit wonders that we'll never even touch on!

We'll start ranking soon!

[Patrick]

We're gonna end up with, like, 40 songs.

I hope you guys have the patience to listen to all of them.

[Ace Reject]

I already know all forty of them.

Let's stop pretending.

I'm happy to say that I was unfamiliar with at least one of these.

What is a Soho and why does it sound so good?

[Benzene]

Was this submitted? I mean, it's only the best pop song from the 80s.

[potent]

I already submitted...but someone should really take this.

They're not a one hit wonder sis.

Really? I looked at their discography and they...have another top 20 hit...

Nevermind.

[Benzene]

Wow, some of these artists who I assumed were one-hit wonders were not. Corey Hart had other hits?

Someone else had picked them and I was going to allow it because I didn't expect many people to remember The Sun Always Shines on TV, but perhaps I should leave them off and include Dexy's Midnight Runners. We'd end up with 35 songs that way, and I'm into round numbers.

[Patrick]

These are the 35 songs/artists selected for this outing. Please listen to and assign each song a ranking on a scale of 1-10. When you've completed this process, you may submit your scores to me via PM.

Right?! 20 mediocre chart toppers can't compete with one really stellar hit. If ever I were to have some sort of career in music, I'd want to be a one hit wonder.

I have so many tens to award.

Let's have all our rankings submitted by May 8.

[madonnas]

I've heard about half of these. I'll get them in tonight or tomorrow.

[madonnas]

OMG!

Hit em Up Style! I am giving this an 11. and you MUST count it as an 11.

Patrick will probably do it. He is ATRL's resident Blu Cantrell stan.

He better.

I don't remember much about pop music when I was growing up, but I distinctly remember loving this song for whatever reason. It just stands out to me. I even asked my mom for her album.
