GREATEST ONE-HIT WONDERS OF THE 70S (Part2)

Today I'm continuing yesterday's list of what I consider to be some of the coolest songs ever by one-hit wonders from the 1970s.  There were tons of these tunes floating around back then.  Exploitation and novelty records  were at their peak in the pre-punk days and Disco brought a whole crop of characters who scored that massive hit and then slithered away back into obscurity.  I bet a lot of these guys are now manning microwaves at your local Taco Bell.


AND NOW...LADIES AND VERY- GENTLE -MEN EVERYWHERE...
HERE THEY ARE:


 THE TOP 25 GREATEST ONE HIT WONDERS OF THE 70S (IMHO):
