The Birds And The Bees – Jewel Akens (1965)
This is a nicely put together video.

My apologies in advance for this one!
They’re Coming To Take Me Away, Ha-Haa! – Napoleon XIVÂ (1966 and 1973)
-
I once found an entire album by Napoleon XIV (pictured in the attached video). All the “songs” were based on the same psycho schtick. This is the only other one that I really liked:

You’ve heard of a Woolgoose, but have you heard of a Woolly Bully?
-
Well, when I was a kid there was this sheep at school who used to make me give him my lunch money or he’d bleat me up. (Sorry…)
-
Wooly Bully always conjured up in my mind an image of a hairy tabby cat like this one. I wasn’t too far off.
“Wooly Bully” is a popular song originally recorded by novelty rock ‘n’ roll band Sam the Sham … According to Sam: “The name of my cat was ‘Wooly Bully’, so I started from there.

Lol Howard, I had already mentioned this particular song in my reply to this posting, guess you missed it…lol  or else, we’re all on the same MLTBuzzing Thinking line…..

Here’s one that peaked at #8 on the Canadian Charts in July 1973. Don’t think many outside of Canada ever heard it.
Michael Tarry (McDermott) – Rosalie
When music was still music…. and it’s back with MLT!

Hi Dana: Being a Canadian myself, you’ve made me think of other Canadian perhaps one hit wonders of the past: Terry & Susan Jacks, The Raes, and I’m sure there’s others and yes, I do recall hearing this song on the radio… I was a wee youngster around the time…. Lol
-
Hi Jacki.
Here’s some others from (Canadian) memory lane…
Myles & Lenny- Can You Give It All To Me (1974)
James Leroy & Denim- Touch of Magic (1974) Not a one hit wonder as had a couple of others but is a forgotten classic.
And one more “forgotten classic”-
Frank Mills- Love Me Love Me Love (1972)

Didn’t miss your post Jacki. I included it as I remembered it from a much earlier topic. I had a copy of a Sam The Sham single in the sixties and if I find a YouTube video, I will post it in an appropriate topic.
-
Well Jacki, I didn’t realise there was a Susan Jacks but Terry could certainly qualify as a one hit wonder. I remember his hit well!
The Poppy Family
Terry Jacks ‎– Seasons In The Sun

Howard, Susan was married to Terry and she actually was more known /associated with The Poppy Family….
