Harry Nilsson
title: One (Harry Nilsson song) text: One (Harry Nilsson song) "One" is a song written by Harry Nilsson and made famous by Three Dog Night whose recording reached number five on the U.S. "Billboard" Hot 100 in 1969 and number four in Canada. The song is known for its opening line "One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do". Nilsson wrote the song after calling someone and getting a busy signal. He stayed on the line listening to the "beep, beep, beep, beep..." tone, writing the song. The busy signal became the opening notes of the song. In 1968, Al Kooper released the song on title: Aerial Ballet text: Aerial Ballet Aerial Ballet is the third album by Harry Nilsson released in 1968. "Aerial Ballet" was Nilsson's second album for RCA Victor, and was titled after the highwire circus act of his grandparents. It consists almost entirely of songs written by him, including "One", which later became a Number Five hit for Three Dog Night. (The song's opening line, ""One is the loneliest number"", is a common phrase to this day.) The title of the album has been given by Joey Kramer as the inspiration for Aerosmith's name and wings motif. The most familiar track from "Aerial Ballet" is title: One Less Lonely Girl text: One Less Lonely Girl "One Less Lonely Girl" is a song by Canadian recording artist Justin Bieber. The song was written and produced by Bieber's mentor, Usher, as well as Ezekiel Lewis, Balewa Muhammad of The Clutch, and A-Rex duo Sean Hamilton and Hyuk Shin. It was released exclusively to iTunes as the second single from his debut release, "My World" on October 6, 2009, and was later released to more digital distributions and mainstream and rhythmic radio soon after. The song was positively received, with critics commending the song's delivery and comparing it to pop-R&B songs by Chris Brown title: The Tangerine Zoo text: is actually a six-minute rendition of Them's tune "Gloria". One review states "with swirly Hammond and feedback-drenched psychedelic noodling a-plenty doesn't seem like a good way to avoid the mainstream and do your own thing, but the band manage to stamp their own style on this classic". Ironically, the Tangerine Zoo's recording of "One Is the Loneliest Number" was not released, and became a national hit on the "Billboard" Hot 100 for Three Dog Night in April 1969. One track, "Nature's Children", was covered by garage band the Kidds with regional success, and appears on "Pebbles, Volume 10". To promote title: Bobby Vinton Sings for Lonely Nights text: Bobby Vinton Sings for Lonely Nights Bobby Vinton Sings for Lonely Nights is Bobby Vinton's eleventh studio album, released in 1965. This album was released to capitalize on the success of Vinton's big hit "Mr. Lonely" and his album of the same name by containing only songs that refer to loneliness. There were two singles from this album: "Long Lonely Nights" (previously a minor hit for Lee Andrews & the Hearts then for Clyde McPhatter in 1957 and then for The Four Seasons in 1964) and Vinton's self-penned "L-O-N-E-L-Y".
