After that it was hit after hit for more than two decades, including "Mama Sang A Song," "Still," "I Get The Fever," "My Life," and "World Of Make Believe," all #1 hits. And still more great songs - "Po Folks," "8 X 10," "I Love You Drops," "Wild Weekend," "Happy State Of Mind," "If You Can Live With It."
