ONE HIT WONDERLAND: "I Touch Myself" by Divinyls

I don't want anybody else.

ONE HIT WONDERLAND: "I Touch Myself" by Divinyls

Comments

I never thought of a Cascada episode, but now that is all I want in the world.

Always get a kick out of your title card illustrations, this one is quite saucy!

Everytime We Touch - Cascada should be done! Not only is it fascinating 'band', but it's a one-hit-wonder song that's actually pretty high on iTunes right now (USA), and is still played on the dance radio stations. It's also a great place to look if you want to see how the modern EDM craze got it's start, having struck the charts right at the beginning of many modern DJ's and pop-star's careers! I think it would be fun.

Pffft. Even in America where Gorillaz is technically a one-hit wonder, they're still super popular. Most people would at least recognize "Clint Eastwood" unless they're some kind of nerd.

Didn't know The Pretenders - Human was a cover

You should totally do "Feel Good Inc" by Gorillaz. Or if that doesn't qualify, then "Wait for You" by Elliot Yamin.

"Boys in Town" was their other top 10 Aussie hit from what I've researched (it's also a damn fine song) and they've had eight others in the Top 40. Don't know who the Australian Casey Kasem would be, but I agree that Divinyls deserved better in America.

1981's "Boys in Town" is my favorite Divinyls song besides their biggest smash.

Can you do am episode on Drive by Incubus

We had a female masturbation song on the Hot 100 pretty recently, actually: Hailee Steinfeld's Love Myself.

Would you mind saying "Hi" to Chris Hemsworth next time you see him? I miss the guy.

I saw The Divinyls live a few times while I was still living in Sydney during the early eighties. They were always what we here use to call a great pub rock band.

Kim Huett

Flick it good?

The "pages of a blue boy magazine" line near the beginning is a bit of a dead giveaway that she's polishing the pearl to porn.

Michael Russell

Joan Osborne's Right Hand Man. Totally about female masturbation.

Rae

I just wanted to comment that your attempt at an Australian accent was terrible, but otherwise great video as always

Kylie

Gwen Stefani is not a one hit wonder by any means.

Yes! My go-to karaoke song!

Megan

She Bop is about masturbation? I thought it was just Cyndi Lauper trying and failing to conjugate a verb.

Brad Riegner

they are still a mainstay on classic rock stations in australia, i was totally unaware the us considered them one hit wonders.

Can You Please Do a One-Hit Wonderland Review on "I Wish" by Skee-Lo? I Mean, He Only Got Two Singles off His Album. Including "Top of the Stairs"

Michael Jones Jr.

have you considered reviewing wind it up by gwen stefani?

As an Australian, I can confirm that all Australians know each other.
