]]> Twisted Sister Stay HUngry I saw the advertisement for this the other day and it pissed me off. You know the “One Hit Wonder” shows that air on VH1 every now and then? Well there is another one coming soon to VH1 Classic and two of the bands they are going to cover are Twisted Sister and RATT. Last time I checked neither of these bands were one hit wonders. Not to me anyway. Maybe they were one hit wonders in the corporate world of Mtv, but both of these bands had plenty of good songs.

 

Twisted Sister’s entire Stay Hungry album is proof that they are not one-hit-wonders. Where do they get off on say that they are OHW’s? T.S. didn’t have a really long run as a band, but they are well known, especially by their fans for having way more than one hit. Let’s just take a quick look at probably their biggest hit from radio and t.v.. We’re Not Gonna Take It and I Wanna Rock. That’s two by my count. Add another arm load of hits and you have enough of a legacy to be more than one hit wonders.

I can’t say that I was a diehard RATT fan, but they had plenty enough to not be known as one-hit-wonders.  This show is being produced by No Good TV…I think they are just trying to live up their name.
