Wake Up Song of the Day: Blue Swede “Hooked on a Feeling”. It’s the Friday Flashback Song! We “Flash Back” in 10-20-30-40-50-60-70 year increments to find Number One Songs at this time that are still remembered today, along with the artists and groups that perform. Or, Number One Songs that are long forgotten, along with the artists and groups that perform. In 1974, this band from Sweden hit #1 for 1 week. The song was originally performed by B.J. Thomas and reached #5 on the chart in 1969. The Blue Sweded version included the ooga chaka introduction from a 1971 cover by Jonathan King. The publication Record World said that “the opening hook will have buyers crying for the ‘oogah chugga’ record.” In 1992, Blue Swede’s recording was featured on the soundtrack of Quentin Tarantino’s debut feature Reservoir Dogs. In 1998, during an episode of the TVseries Ally McBeal, the character of Ally McBeal uses the song to illustrate her biological clock runs out as she imagines a computer generated baby dancing into her bedroom as the song plays. This became an internet meme. The 2014 movie Guardians of the Galaxy featured the song. The song was also featured in the teaser trailer for the 2017 sequel, Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 2.
