Still, the band could not capitalize on the renewed interest. In 1998, they released a terrific pop rock album called "Zoom," but it failed to mark a comeback for the band. With great tunes like "Love Is All There Is," it is hard to figure out why.
In the band's short-lived heyday in the early 80s, they managed to score two additional top 40 hits: "Good Girls Don't" went to #11 and "Baby Talks Dirty" to #38. The band called it quits at the end of 1981, but reunited several times to make new records (starting with 1990's excellent "Serious Fun," which also failed to give the band a well-deserved comeback).
The Knack should be known for more than just "My Sharona," but sadly that won't happen on the charts. Fieger passed away from cancer in 2010.
