Oh nice, I don't think I have heard another The Proclaimers song other than 500 miles

Agreed! I love Oh Jean! (very orgasmic). Bummer - I thought there might be a video.

Sunshine on Leith was a great, underrated album.

They didn't include "Gangnam Style"?!

Good god people go out and listen to a full Verve record! They’re absolutely brilliant

I had the CD.

But to be honest I only really listened to that track for the most part. And once I got a CD burner I made my own compilation "mixed tapes" and I didn't need the original anymore.

IMHO, just because they're one hit wonders, doesn't mean they don't have other good songs. :)

Great list! Not diverse in general, but certainly very diverse enough among pop music lists. Might make a playlist of this.

I can assure you that The Proclaimers and A-Ha have SEVERAL other tracks that are JUST as good as those hits. Some others on that list have some other good tracks, though I wouldn't put them on par, much less recommend them as a band.
