I've always kind of felt sorry for Allen Funt, living with that rhyme his whole life. You have to think he heard it a lot. I wouldn't be able to resist. Hey Funt, you....
hahahaha. I would say being a "one-hit wonder" is not dismissive in my mind, just descriptive. It's a WONDER! Indeed, having a single hit on the charts is very cool. Bless Carl Douglas. He had the goofiness to call the album "Kung Fu Fighting and Other Great Love Songs." And he was a two hit wonder. Hit the top 10 of the r& b charts with his follow-up, "Dance The Kung Fu."
Amen!
