I remember when that song was the rage - heard it over and over and over again.
 But AFAIK it was a one-hit wonder.  Did McCall ever have another hit?

Another one, at around the same time frame, was "The Americans," by some
Canadian dude talking about how we were the ones always to coming to the rescue
etc. Very pro-American, but again I never heard about another hit from that
guy. (Name escapes me at the moment.)
