The Dean Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Another catchy song though. Maybe there's something inspiring about statutory rape. Off one-hit topic, for a second, but in response to your stat-rape inquiry: I think you may be on to something. As you may know, Steely Dan has many songs about men and inappropriately younger women, but most are about women who are, likely, legal. One big exception is Janie Runaway, about a man having a fling with an underage runaway girl, in NYC. It's clear the man understands there could be trouble. Still, he suggests she bring one of her friends, for a threesome. Let's plan a weekend alone togetherDrive out to Binky's place The sugar shack in Pennsylvania Or would that be a federal case? We'll take the Big Red - the Blazer - it's nice inside And guess who's coming along for the ride Who has a friend named Melanie Who's not afraid to try new things Who gets to spend her birthday in Spain Possibly you - Janie Runaway So outrageous...

Tcali Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 no it was Stealers Wheel who wrote the song and who's version was in reservoir dogs. The guy from Stealers Wheels used to busk with Gerry Rafferty in London. Gerry Rafferty has one of my favorite one hit wonder hit songs-baker street New Radicals- You Get What You Give Sniffn the Tears- Drivers Seat Wrong and wrong. Rafferty was a member of Stealers Wheel--...so dont know if 'Stuck in the middle' qualifies as a one hit wonder. Be that as it may...Baker street was Not at all a one hit wonder song. rafferty also had big hits with 'Right Down The Line' and others. He was a mega seller in the late 70s early 80s.

Correct, Rafferty was not a one-hit wonder. Steelers Wheel, however, was ALMOST a one hit wonder. Does anyone else remember ""Everyone's Agreed That Everything Will Turn Out Fine"? That was Steelers Wheel, too. Here's a nice trivia tidbit: The first Steelers Wheel album was produced by Leiber & Stoller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a mega seller in the late 70s early 80s. what is with the double wrong? OK Rafferty was not a one hit wonder. But I wonder how many music fans can name a second hit from Rafferty? I would bet it is under 1%. And Rafferty did busk with the other member of Stealers Wheels. RIGHT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIGHT! well by saying he busked you implied that that is what the important thing was......he was a member of the group-which is the essential fact. Rafferty was a strange case---huge seller-but kind of a recluse who didnt love the stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I remember "Everyones Agreed...." good tune---and I guess is one of those debatable hits.....Like Looking Glass' 'Jimmy Love Marianne' was.
