<p><strong>💿Sing It Once – Make It Count!</strong></p><p><br></p><p>Some songs only get one shot at fame – and so do the artists who sing them. We're calling out to all Snappers to dust off those glorious&nbsp;<strong>One Hit Wonders</strong>&nbsp;that ruled the radio for a hot minute (and then vanished faster than MC Hammer pants.) From the&nbsp;<em>Macarena</em>&nbsp;to&nbsp;<em>Chumbawumva,&nbsp;</em>these songs were iconic, and unforgettable – even if their singers were never heard from again.</p><p><br></p><p>This is your chance to give these hits their well-deserved&nbsp;<strong>second moment in the spotlight</strong>. Grab your mic, find that one-track wonder you can’t help but belt out, and show the world that some tunes only need one try to live forever.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>💿 One Hit Challenge Details</strong></p><p>To complete this challenge, be sure to follow both Part A and Part B below!</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Blockbuster Ballads - Part A:&nbsp;</strong>On Friday,&nbsp;<strong>August 1st</strong>, choose your favorite&nbsp;<strong>One Hit Wonder&nbsp;</strong>and sing your heart out! (One pre-record is allowed.)</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Blockbuster Ballads - Part B:&nbsp;</strong>Now let’s pretend this song wasn’t their only claim to fame – imagine the artist tried to follow it up with a sequel. In your song’s&nbsp;<strong>comment section</strong>, give us a&nbsp;<strong>hilariously made-up title for that “next big hit”</strong>&nbsp;that never made it to the charts. The funnier, cheesier, or more over-the-top, the better! (Think&nbsp;<em>Mambo No. 6</em>,&nbsp;<em>Who Let the Cats Out</em>, or&nbsp;<em>Baby Got Back… Again</em>.)</p><p><br></p><p>Oh, ok, so you want a follow up song to this one??? LOL! Ok, I think that the follow up song should have been,</p><p>"Stinkin' Love!!!" LMAO!!! :)</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&amp;&amp;p=68a541fd8a96d35b2b0c9915bf15a273f71a4a3d3f5a8ef46ae1a6a0461bd31dJmltdHM9MTc1MzkyMDAwMA&amp;ptn=3&amp;ver=2&amp;hsh=4&amp;fclid=1bdfb1d8-3f28-69d4-1caa-a5e03e90687d&amp;u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly9mb3J1bXMuc3RldmVob2ZmbWFuLnR2L3RocmVhZHMvY291bGQteW91LXJldGlyZS1vZmYtb2Ytcm95YWx0aWVzLWZyb20tb25lLWhpdC1zb25nLjkwNjEwOC9wYWdlLTEy&amp;ntb=1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8); background-color: rgb(215, 221, 242);">The song&nbsp;<strong>"Tainted Love" by Soft Cell</strong>&nbsp;has sold approximately&nbsp;<strong>1.05 million copies in the UK</strong>&nbsp;since its release in 1981, with a total of&nbsp;<strong>1.35 million copies</strong>&nbsp;as of August 2017.
