 1980s One-Hit Wonder Lyrics, Part 2 - Random Trivia Answers
 

  • A1) "In My House" - Mary Jane Girls. Joanne "Jojo" McDuffie, Candice "Candi" Ghant, Kim "Maxi", and Ann "Cheri" Bailey started out as Rick James's backup singers but made their own way to #7 on the pop chart and #1 on the dance chart in 1985.
  • A2) "Sidewalk Talk" - Jellybean. John Benitez snuck into the Top 20 in 1986 with vocals help from Catherine Buchanan and Madonna.
  • A3) "Let's Go All the Way" - Sly Fox. Gary "Mudbone" Cooper and Michael Camacho peeked into the Top 10 in 1986.
  • A4) "I Wanna Be a Cowboy" - Boys Don't Cry. The British band also borrowed another piece of Americana by naming the horse in the song Trigger.
  • A5) "Baby Love" - Regina. Regina Richards also reached #10 with her only hit in 1986.
  • A6) "Emotion in Motion" - Ric Ocasek. The lead singer of the Cars had a #15 song as a solo artist in 1986, two years before the Cars broke up.
  • A7) "Funky Town" - Pseudo Echo. Slight trick question on the band, since Lipps Inc. hit #1 with this song in 1980. The Australian band created their electro-pop version seven years later.
  • A8) "Heart and Soul" - T'Pau. Carol Decker and her British band named themselves for a female Vulcan from Star Trek.
  • A9) "Nite and Day" - Al B. Sure. The singer, born in Boston as Albert Brown, crossed over with this single from his In Effect Mode debut album, which monopolized the #1 spot on the R&B charts for seven weeks.
  • A10) "Rush Hour" - Jane Wiedlin. The former Go-Go's guitarist made the Top 10 on her own in 1988 with this single from her Fur album.
  • A11) "Don't Worry, Be Happy" - Bobby McFerrin. The #1 song appeared in Tom Cruise's movie Cocktail.
  • A12) "What I Am" - Edie Brickell and New Bohemians. Brickell was performing this song on Saturday Night Live when future husband Paul Simon first caught her eye and made her mess up.
