Just a side note here, I am sure some of you are not grasping the concept of One Hit Wonders

Mary Hopkin - Temma harbour (HQ) - YouTube

One hit wonder: a group or performer who only charted ONE hit.

I'm pretty sure Mary Hopkinks charted with Those Were The Days. And I know Springsteen charted with Hungry Heart, BITUSA, Bobbie Jean, No Surrender and The Rising.

The Stones charted with Mothers Little Helper Paint It black, Honky Tonkin Woman, As Tears Go Byyadda ya dad yadda

Mary Hopkin - Temma harbour (HQ) - YouTube

One hit wonder: a group or performer who only charted ONE hit.

I'm pretty sure Mary Hopkinks charted with Those Were The Days.

Indeed. "Those Were The Days" was Mary Hopkin's biggest hit. #2 here in the US. Her followup, "Goodbye," made the Top 20. "Temma Harbour" stalled at #39, I believe. Not a One-Hit Wonder.
