Known for their 1973 hit ‘Dancing in the Moonlight’

Why they might be annoying:

They only had one hit song.
They are confused with the band Looking Glass, who sang ‘Brandy.’
Like many one-hit wonders, they broke up and re-formed with different members, yet to fail again.
Liza Minnelli recorded a god-awful cover of ‘Dancing in the Moonlight.’

Why they might not be annoying:

They were friends with the Beach Boys.
‘Dancing in the Moonlight’ is known for its smooth opening keyboard line.
The song includes the raunchy lyric ‘We get it on most every night.’
It is still played a lot on oldies radio.
