(30) Days of Music: Day 14

[sechan19]

Attack of the 50-Foot One-Hit Wonder.

A song from the year you were born
"My Sharona," The Knack.

Most people don't believe it, but I was born in 1979 - the year that The Knack released their pretty-much-going-nowhere debut album Get The Knack. I actually still own a copy of that album on vinyl, mostly for nostalgia's sake. You see, though the song enjoyed a second life through its appearance in the mid-90s film "Reality Bites," which I've never seen (I'm allergic to Winona Ryder), I know it from childhood. It was supposedly the favorite song of my babyhood - reigning supreme until Mick Jagger and his boys released Tattoo You in 1981 - and seems to have popped up regularly throughout the course of my life. All things considered, I could have done a hell of a lot worse.
