Hmm, 'Flagpole Sitter' by Harvey Dangerfield. You might not recognize the title but if you heard it you'd recognize it, and get it stuck in your head for days!

Damn, now it's stuck in my head!

Can't remember the actual name of the song, smack it up, flip it, rub it down, oh noooooo by Bell Biv Devoe. 10 years later and that song still pops into my head on occasion.

Good site.
I don't agree with all of them on that site though, like they have The Verve in there.
They broke up, and if they listened to thier album, ALL of their songs were awesome, maybe not hits, but they were good, still listen to them today.
But I digress.
