mp3: The Orlons - The Wah-Watusi According to my stats counter, the total number of Diddy Wah visitors went over the one million mark this week. I'm sure I personally make up about half of those visits, but thanks anyway to everyone else who has stumbled by over the years. It's quite an achievement and I'm proud to be a millionaire. A few months ago, I posted The Orlons' Don't Hang Up , which was also included in my latest mix . Like Don't Hang Up, The Wah-Watusi was [...]
