Eight weeks after entering the Billboard Hot 100, “Lay A Little Lovin’ On Me” by Robin McNamara peaked at number11.
The follow-up, “Got To Believe In Love” would receive little air play, confining McNamara to one-hit-wonder status.

Looking Glass is an American pop rock band that were active during the early 1970s.
They are known for their one hit song Brandy , which reached No. 1 on both the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and Cash Box Top 100 charts in 1972. Remaining in the top position for one week.

A Staten Island, New York doo wop group called The Elegants saw their re-worked version of the Mozart lullaby, “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star” hit the top of the US record charts as the re-titled “Little Star”.
The group spent the following eighteen months milking the song for all it was worth with TV appearances and live shows, but follow up records, “Please Believe Me”, “True Love Affair” and “Little Boy Blue” could not match the success of “Little Star”.
Although The Elegants would be around in one form or another until the 1980s, they never had another hit record.
