One of my favorites which may or may not technically be a 2HW:
The Romantics
"What I Like About You" and "Talking in Your Sleep"
I guess I'm the only one in the world but I've always been a big Romantics fan. Saw them live back back in the early/mid 80s and they put on an kickass show. Fun, tuneful stuff. Underrated albums: In Heat and National Breakout.

I think they were the late 70s, no?

Might be early 90s instead of 80s, but close enough

The group's true record debut was the 1978 single on Spider Records, "Little White Lies" / "I Can't Tell You Anything", followed that year by the Bomp single "Tell It to Carrie" / "First in Line" (on the Bomp! Records label). All of these were re-recorded later for the first LP. The album yielded the hit "What I Like About You", which reached No. 49 in the US, No. 12 in the Netherlands, and No. 2 in Australia, where the band was especially popular.
Rerecordings and subsequent release of album called The Romantics:

Wow, I'm getting old. I was thinking those were released later for some reason.

Radar Love was early 70's Twilight Zone was 80s.
"Radar Love" peaked at #13 in the US in early 1974. "Twilight Zone" broke on MTV nine years later.
To put it in perspective, I bought a 45 of "Radar Love" while I was in 5th grade. The first time I saw the video for "Twilight Zone", it was a year and a half after I graduated from Auburn
