Wait a sec.
Bob Newhart?
Are we talking about the comedic TV actor?
That Bob Newhart?
And that is one that did not stand out to you?
Interesting how "One hit wonders" do not matter.
Like Ricki, Men at Work, Norah Jones and Chris Cross.
And what is The Partridge Fam. doing on there?
Were they that desperate to fill in for another nom?

Nah. It didn't even make the Billboard Hot 100. It's a piece of ****.

I looked it up. It made it to #3 on the Billboard "Top Tracks" chart. That counts as a hit.

I guess but Down Under is the one they are most known for.
Therefore, one hit wonders.

They're not actually a one-hit wonder, though. And "Who Can It Be Now?" is very well known.

Yes, it stood out to me. I thought that category was only for music. I noticed Robin Williams was nominated too (in 1980).
Those weren't all one-hit wonders. Also, some may have been nominated early on in their careers, so nobody knew the type of music they'd release later and whether they would have hits.

When was the day the music died? Such lame offerings now.

That list proves one thing, that the Grammys has no relevance whatsoever.
