How many one hit wonders can you name that only have three words? Not only that, but all three words are exactly the same: “Tequila!” While it might not be the world’s greatest example of songwriting, The Champs managed to make it work. It landed at the number five spot on Billboard‘s Top 50 Songs of 1958 list. Today, it remains a favorite at sporting events and weddings around the world.

The Champs tried to recapture the glory of “Tequila” with a sequel song, titled, as you might have guessed, “Too Much Tequila.” Apparently, it was too much, as it only rose to chart position number 30.
