However, it is the longest-titled No 1 charting song to date.</p><p><br></p><p>(Deep breath...) "(Hey Won't You Play) Another Somebody Done Somebody Wrong Song" was B. J. Thomas' second No 1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, his other being "Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head." He also scored many No 1s on the Adult Contemporary and Country charts, being something of a cross-genre sensation. Still, this hit came after a long period of waning (though still considerable) popularity.</p><p><br></p><p>According to the biography on his site, B. J. Thomas was about ready to settle to a home life with his wife and three daughters in recent decades, but his songs kept popping up in odd places. Like, for instance, "Raindrops" in the film Spider-Man 2, which gave him the idea to look into the Internet market - where he discovered millions of fans he'd barely known he had.</p><p><br></p><p>This was written by Chips Moman and Larry Butler, who played together in a band called The Gentrys. Moman and Butler made their biggest impact as producers, with Moman doing a lot of work with The Box Tops, and Butler producing Kenny Rogers.</p><p><br></p><p>Other artists to record this song include Loretta Lynn, Frankie Laine, and Ray Conniff.</p>
