I saw them supporting Dr Feelgood in about 1978. They weren't bad, but they played about 3 encores, which is overstaying your welcome for a support band somewhat.

An astonishingly prescient song from 1965, lyrics still meaningful today

I like this song but it is probably little known.

Genuinely can't believe this thread is 5 pages long and no ones mentioned this yet...

Also can't believe people think Cornershop and Orange Juice are one hit wonders!

Orange Juice only had one single that made it into the top 40… so I’d say that qualifies them as a one hit wonder.

Wow. Didn't realise that.

I can't help myself is a pretty well known song with multiple millions of plays on Spotify and gets plenty of spins on 6music

Seems an absolute crime to call one of the greatest songwriting duos of all time a "one hit wonder", but this was their only top 20 single in the UK under their own name.

Each of these had a large body of work, so maybe not one-hit wonders in the normal sense of the word, but they each only had one UK Top 40 single, Cohen many years after the song was written.

And for Cohen after loads of other singers had ruined it

Don't agree. Buckley, Wainright and John Cale's versions were all better than Cohen's.

Probably never a hit but their most famous song. And the image that represents Blue Action.
