One hit wonders

[Beartrucci]

Hey Micky your so fine, you blow my mind. HEY MICKY! HEY MICKY!

Yeah... that one.
Its been stuck in my head for 2 damn weeks. 2 DAMN WEEKS!

Shame on you, now it's stuck in my head! FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

OT:
This song got overplayed to death here in Australia, then I never heard about the band again after they released their second song and it didn't sound that good. It's funny because Forever Young is just a cover of an older song.

Player 1 - Space Invaders
Misex - Computer Games
Escape Club - Wild Wild West
GANGgajang - Sounds of Now (This is Australia)
Uhhhh, showing my age a little here.

Oh, and Doctoring the Tardis - The Timelords, although I don't know if they count because they are really the KLF.

 

[The Hairminator]

Europe - Final Countdown

No! Bad!
Europe is not a one hit wonder ;_;

 

[Riobux]

Weezer - Teenage Dirtbag

I hope you know that Wheatus did Teenage Dirtbag and not Weezer.

Oh, and Wheatus had other hits.

 

[SonicKoala]

Chumbawamba - Tubthumping.

Fuck, that song is annoying...... yet ridiculously catchy at the same time.

 

[Spinozaad]

Another one is Golden Earring with Radar Love. Honestly, that didn't even do too well, but it's recognizable and pretty good. When you listen to any of their other songs though, it's kind of obvious why they're one-hit wonders...

They're not that bad... Actually, I'd say they're pretty good.

As for one hit wonders:

Crazy Town - Butterfly

 

[Gxas]

Somebody to Love hit #3, again 2 hit wonder

Yeah... so... basically, my classification of a "one hit wonder" is something that can come on the radio played at low volume in a loud restaurant and have everyone who is there recognize the song and be able to at least sing along with the refrain.

Just because it was a single and has a video doesn't technically make it a "hit".

 

[Versago]

I hope you know that Wheatus did Teenage Dirtbag and not Weezer.

I do now... damn it are Weezer known for nothing?!

 

[Hurr Durr Derp]

Los del Rio's Macarena. MAN, those were the times.

Hah! I still know the little dance that came with it.

And I'm proud of it!

 

[Eleuthera]

Joe Diffie (Third Rock from the Sun), Joan Osbourne (What if God was one of us) Howie Day (Collide), Hoku (Another Dumb Blonde) Harvey Danger (Flagpole Sitta), Semisonic (Closing Time), Haircut 100 (Love Plus One), and that's just the H through J on my Windows Media Player. I could go for days.

Semisonic also had "Chemistry"

I hope you know that Wheatus did Teenage Dirtbag and not Weezer.

I do now... damn it are Weezer known for nothing?!

Weezer are probably best known for "Buddy Holly"

 

[Snownine]

Taco- his cover of Putting on the Ritz

 

[Snownine]

How do you quote more than one person in one post? I know asking this probably makes me retarded.

 

[Erja_Perttu]

Does anyone remember anything Men at Work did other than Down Under?

Or for that matter, Toto and Africa.

Men Without Hats - The Safety Dance

Hey, Toto had Hold The Line, which was a hit, they did an orchestral version of it for The Proms a few years back.

Hmm, I'm gonna go with The Rasmus - In The Shadows
