I doubt this will be my best round.
It's going to be a tough one

A hit was something that did well at the the time. If they only did well once, then they were a one hit wonder.

So funny you said that. Rene and Renato was on my radar. I just thought the judges wouldn't get it. I love "Save my love"

I'd say it depends how the other songs charted.

I've never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight,
I've never seen you shine so bright,
I've never seen so many men ask you if you wanted to dance,
They're looking for a little romance, given half a chance,
And I have never seen that dress you're wearing,
Or the highlights in your hair that catch your eyes,
I have been blind;

The lady in Red, is dancing with me. Cheek to cheek.


I'd have loved to have chosen this.

Chris De Burgh classic.

I just don't think it would be a winner with the judges.

I looked at one hit wonders from the 1950s to the modern day.

In the end I went for one I think that should be a solid choice.

I'll base it on if they have had a huge hit a well known song but other songs that didn't even make the top 40, that's a one hit wonder

I'll send the songs to the judges when I wake up. I'm too tired now to spend half an hour copying and pasting x

Day off work tomorrow which means I'm going to the seaside. I'll expect a show for the evening when I get home. So get your fingers out judges. Don't let me down, you wouldn't want disappoint old Alfred.
