Good less popular songs by one hit wonder (maybe two hit) bands? |

I always liked "Never find another you" by the Seekers... they're the band that did "Georgie Girl."

"Where Is My Mind?" is their less popular one. Everyone knows The Pixies version of course, but not many know about the Nada Surf cover.
I misread the original at first, haha.

the Seekers too--cheesey but enjoyable. Also love The Waitresses "Quit" and "Wasn't Tomorrow Wonderful" besides "I know What Boys Like" and also enjoy Dr. Buzzard's Original Savannah Band's Cherchez La Femme and it's debut album--disco/pop heaven.

I don't know what the title of their little ditty was, but it was used in a listerine ad here in the states.
The chorus goes "oooo-o-oooo-o-ooo-o-oooo-o". I know it sounds like I'm kidding, but I'm not.
Anyone want to vouch that I'm not just soft in the noggin?
