The One-Hit Wonder File: ‘Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye’
A 1969 hit that, during its original release, actually toppled “Come Together” by The Beatles out of the number one spot on the charts.
If you’ve attended any sporting event in the last 40 years, you’ve likely chanted “the chorus of “Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye,” the infectious 1969 hit that, during its original release, actually toppled “Come Together” by The Beatles out of the number one spot on the charts. Not bad for a tune that was originally intended for use as a B-side to a single by singer Gary DeCarlo, who also recorded under the name Garrett Scott.
