Just because someone is popular, doesn't make it right.
Case Number 1:
"Macarena" by Los del R?*o. The song became the second longest running #1 and best selling debut single of all time in the US. It was ranked the "#1 Greatest One-Hit Wonder of all Time" by Vh1 in 2002.
Case Number 2:
"Don't Worry, Be Happy" by Bobby McFerrin is the first a cappella song to reach number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart
Case Number 3:
Anthony Callea currently holds the record for the highest-selling single and fastest-selling single in Australia for his debut single "The Prayer".
Case Number 4:
Australian of the Year Recipients... Who???
2004 Steve Waugh
2002 Patrick Rafter
1999 Mark Taylor
1998 Cathy Freeman
1994 Ian Kiernan
1991 Archbishop Peter Hollingworth
1989 Allan Border
1988 Kay Cottee
1987 John Farnham
1985 Paul Hogan
Enough said....
Case Number 5:
Martin Bryant is a household name in Australia. Doesn't make him right either.
Whatever.
