Fandango is stepping in while Jim enjoys some time off. On tap today we have one hit wonders as suggested by Amy (aka E.M. Kingston). Fortunately for me, the writer’s best friend aka Google has a very long list organized by decade from which to choose my fave. Or unfortunately for me since I want to pick them all. Thing about these one hit wonders is they were a hit for a reason. Most are catchy little bastards. I mean tunes. Catchy little tunes.
Why you gotta cuss Jilly? Well I hear using profanity is a sign of creativity and high intelligence. Or not. Who knows? But what I do know for sure is I’m in physical pain and saying fuck, fuck, fuck really does take the edge off I tell ya what.
Without further ado, here is The Knack with My Sharona. Writer(s): Douglas Lars Fieger, Berton L. Averre
Hoo, my little pretty one, my pretty one
When you gonna give me some time, Sharona?
Hoo, you make my motor run, my motor run
Gun it comin’ off of the line, Sharona
Never gonna stop, give it up, such a dirty mind
I always get it up for the touch of the younger kind
My, my, my, aye-aye, woo!
M-m-m-my Sharona
Come a little closer, huh, a-will ya, huh?
Close enough to look in my eyes, Sharona
Keepin’ it a mystery, it gets to me
Runnin’ down the length of my thigh, Sharona
Never gonna stop, give it up, such a dirty mind
I always get it up for the touch of the younger kind
My, my, my, aye-aye, woo!
M-m-m-my Sharona
M-m-m-my Sharona (Yeah!)
When you gonna give to me, g-give to me
Is it just a matter of time, Sharona?
Is it d-d-destiny, d-destiny
Or is it just a game in my mind, Sharona?
Never gonna stop, give it up, such a dirty mind
I always get it up for the touch of the younger kind
My, my, my, aye-aye, woo!
M-m-m-m-m-m-m-my, my, my, aye-aye, woo!
M-m-m-my Sharona
M-m-m-my Sharona
M-m-m-my Sharona
M-m-m-my Sharona
Hoooooo-ohhh, my Sharona
Hoooooo-ohhh, my Sharona
Hoooooo-ohhh, my Sharona
Yep, very catchy song. I’ve liked hearing it even now on the radio sometimes, but the firs I ever heard it was while we were driving down the street in Japan. 🙂

This was out around the time the hostages were taken in Iran, and one of our DJ’s wrote new words and made it “Ayatollah.” One of the lines was “Gonna hit you in the face with a pie-atollah!”
