The ONLY Song in HISTORY to HIT #1 FOUR DIFFERENT TIMES BY 4 DIFFERENT ACTS! | Professor of Rock
1,870Coming up… Eva Boyd wasn’t a singer, and had never earned a penny performing…She was a babysitter! And she hadn’t even been filling those duties for long. But when an emerging songwriting couple, Gerry Goffin and Carol King, handed her a song called Loco-motion that they’d written for somebody else and was rejected, she agreed to give it a try. What happened next was nothing short of remarkable. With one joyful, unpolished take, Loc-motion became an unstoppable hit, sparking a dance craze and launching an unlikely sensation. This song would not only hit #1 but It would be a hit over and over again for many different artists over the next few decades. Get this… Loco-motion was a #1 hit 4 times! Including Mark Farner of Grand Funk Railroad who who tells the story here... Plus and two foreign acts Including Kylie Minogue would all take it to the top of the charts. This is the story of how a household helper became star—and, ohhhh how quickly a star can fade. The chronicle of this bittersweet journey and the anthem that outlived it all is NEXT on Professor of Rock.
