Robert John is most remembered for his 1979 number1 hit, Sad Eyes. Eleven years earlier the charts weren't as kind,with lack of airplay and promotion, the record stalled at only number 49 on Billboard Hot 100, in June 1968. You be the judge on this lost 45.

In June 1956,this early record by Roy Orbison only peaked at number 59 on Billboard. But from 1960-65, he would rack up an incredible 19 Top 40 hits, including 2 number1s. Elvis Presley called Roy the greatest singer in the world, quite the compliment.

The Gong Show in 1976,both contestants had a perfect score of 30. The tiebreaker was determined by the loudest applause for each contestant. The Singing juggler recieved the loudest, however the runner-up,Cheryl Lynn, got a recording contract, and had this #12 hit on Billboard, February 1979

Hey Girl was a Billboard number10 hit for Freddie Scott in 1963. Donny at age14 did one better, peaking at number 9 on Billboard Hot 100 in January 1972. This kept Osmond Mania chart dominance going for another 4 years

Hey girl by Freddie Scott was way better. Teeny bopper girls kept Donny popular.

Alice Cooper co-wrote this beautiful song which began a twelve year absence from the Top 10. Frank Sinatra also covered it,and told Alice after performing it saying," You Keep Writing 'Em Kid, And I'll Keep Singin' 'Em". Alice's gem peaked at number 9 on Billboard in August 1977

Leif Garrett and his sister Dawn Lyn,were very busy during the 1970s. Dawn was a cast member on the TV show My 3 Sons,and appeared with Leif in the hit movie Walking Tall. Leif branched out into music and hit big with this record that went to 10 on Billboard in February 1979

I think she was in the last couple years, when ( Beverly Garland ) was brought on the show and ( Dawn Lynn ) played her daughter. Used to love My Three Sons on Saturday nights. Fred McMurray would always say at the beginning "Welcome To Our Show".

A song that Roy Orbison recorded in 1958 that Donny Osmond remade into his own. His brothers backed him on this,however it was billed as Donny's first solo song. This lost 45 peaked at 7 on Billboard in June 1971 and became a gold record.

Shaun Cassidy followed in half brother David Cassidy's footsteps.Like David, he would have a number1 hit out of the gate,a hit TV Show, and endless female fans. Donald Trump supporter and music legend Eric Carmen wrote it, and this lost 45 peaked at number 3 on Billboard in October 1977

Jack Cassidy was very jealous of David, and he had died in that apartment fire in either late 1976 or early 77. Shaun hadn't made it yet,my guess he would've acted the same towards Shaun, like he did David

Well he was very handsome singing well dance beautifully I have trouble with John Travolta. Being a staunch member of the Church of Scientology he did not believe in medical help for his son who had seizurs. He took his son out of the United States where he died. A questionable death.

In the 1978 comedy Animal House, John Belushi famously smashes a man's guitar during a Toga Party. That shocked guitar player had this big hit a year earlier, a song that spent an incredible 7 months on the chart,eventually peaking at 11 on Billboard Hot 100 in October 1977

Pete Ham and Tom Evans were the driving force behind the group Badfinger. They had 3 top 10 singles,and Baby Blue went to number14. With troubles through the record label and poor management, the hits dried up, and in 1975,Ham took his own life,and 1983 Evans followed suit,a very sad ending
