"Knocked Down, Made Small" by Was (Not Was)

Most people remember Was (Not Was) as a one-hit wonder that started a minor dance craze in the late 80s with their classic, "Walk The Dinosaur," which strutted to #7 in 1989. The group is essentially a duo of Don Fagenson (Don Was) and David Weiss (David Was) with multiple vocalists.

Was (Not Was) had two additional chart appearances before and after "Dinosaur." In 1988, they took "Spy In The House Of Love" to #16, and "Anything Can Happen" stalled at #75 in 1989, their final chart appearance.

The versatile and often quirky group had a few additional radio-friendly cuts scattered across their records. "Knocked Down, Made Small" is an awesome song that kicks off their debut 1983 album, "Born To Laugh At Tornadoes."
