      The music world lost him about three years after this was released, as they never did anything memorable after their first album. Not a true one hit wonder but very close. They were pursued by several labels after causing a buzz in the LA bar scene, and for playing with established acts, so the label paid them a lot to sign, helped them a lot in recording an album, and promoted them like mad, and their first LP was a success, but everything thst came later was disappointing.
      But one huge hit can get you gigs the rest of your life.

      What's considered "underage" in one country (or even state) isn't considered underage in another - age of consent laws have varied throughout the years depending on governments, cultures, time periods, etc. Who's the grand moral authority of consent laws? Who's to say if 16 is the right age to be considered old enough to make your own sexual choices and decisions? Or 18? Or 21? Or even 14? Such laws have always been arbitrary.

You do not need talent to make it in the industry now. All you need is a pretty face, and maybe some singing chops. Music is controlled by corporate American that produces a homogenized product.

    I've mentioned this in other videos but most artists from pre-2000 can actually perform their own songs live. They don't need audio sweetening or other computerized trickery to produce their songs. I think that often comes as a shock to young people who are like "wow, they sound just like the album" because yeah, the album is really them singing and not a computer.

It could have been a hit if, and that if is if people had liked it enough to buy it. They had 1 huge song and a bunch that reached like 68 on the top 40. Their second album sold a lot of copies on the back of their first which is common for big first album bands. They were a flash in the pan except for dedicated fans.

      Kim Mincy and when you hear the recording on the radio - it was done in ONE take. That’s just how good they were live in the studio. I think it’s on RUclips showing the actual one take recording. Pretty amazing.

      Huh? The Knack released 4 or 5 albums after their debut album was released. In most fan’s opinion, My Sharona isn’t his best song. Get a clue

    A lot of times, when a performer has that one huge hit, they grow to hate it and playing it live makes them miserable. This obviously isn't the case here.

    I remember saying goodbye to the seventies with this song growing in its popularity in '79~'80 whatta way to go.. radios, jukeboxes oh man the Knack's been killing it with that guitar solo. Seemed every guitarist I knew was into that lead part, temporarily dropping others in its place: hotel cali, sultans of, carry on wayward, ram jam, wild cherry, the "usuals" of the time; my Sharona somehow made it to the finish line yesss!

    Well if there is any consolation he made alot of people want to dance. I guess when you live this life to the fullest and leave behind something that out lasts, that is the real meaning of success. Thank you Mr. Fieger. R.I.P.
