SealPoet- I LOVE that song. At one time, I downloaded it on my computer, and would play it when I was feeling particularly frisky!

Hobitbob, I can see you're a serious player, but you just stepped out of your league buddy, I'm raising ya

"Hev you got a loight boy" Alan Smethhurst alias ( the singing postman)

This guy got lucky late sixties with the above piece of crap, gave up his job as a postman and never worked again. Sadly he died in 2000 in a hostel for the homeless in grimsby east yorks.

"Wooly Bully" was done by Sam the Sham and the Pharaohs
? & the Mysterians sang "96 Tears".

How's about "Brandy, You're a Fine Girl" by Looking Glass? And, of course "Dirty Water" by the Standells. :-D

Who sang "Love Potion #9"?

"Wishing Well" by Terrence Trent Darby. Actually, there were a couple of hits on the album but that was it.
The oldest Jackson daughter had a big hit in the 80's "Centipede."
Has anyone mentioned Vanilla Ice yet?

I see that Cav beat me to Vanilla Ice. He comes to mind almost immediately. You say he's still recording? Does he get any airplay atall?
