One Eyed, One Horned, Flying, Purple, People Eater

This popular song was written and sung by Sheb Wooley. It reached #1 on the Billboard pop charts in 1958. In the song a monster comes down and wants to be in a rock band. It is 2 minutes and 11 seconds long. The song is also the nickname for the Minnesota Vikings defensive line of the 1970's however the line is back and better than ever so the name may come back to the purple and gold. The character was the premise of a 1988 film starring Neil Patrick Harris, Ned Beatty, and Shelley Winters. This song is a classic for many people during October.
