Favorite 1-hit Wonders? 2017-01-28 12:13:26


I like all of Eagle-Eye Cherry's famous song.

I also like "Rock Me Amadeus" by Falco. The chorus totally isn't "hot potato hot potato, hot potato. hot potato hot potato, hot potato. hot potato hot potato, oh oh oh hot potato." but good luck unhearing it anyway.

Falco's Der Kommissar single is pretty good as well. I still prefer After the Fire's version of it though

Well, I guess that technically makes him not a 1-hit wonder, but I think "Rock Me Amadeus" is the only song to hit the states. Maybe not; I don't know. I'm not old people. I do know he went out in the most "like a star" fashion: ODing on coke while driving then plowing into a tree or something.

Trapt has more hit songs. Still Frame is one of them.

My personal favorite though has to be Stacy's Mom-Fountains of Wayne.

JCB by Nizlopi was one I was really sad didn't get the band big.

And Monster by The Automatic was a great tune.

I know nothing from this band other than this song so I assume they're 1 hit wonders

1-hit wonders are simultaneously the best and worst thing a band could ask for. I can't imagine how much it would suck to be famous for one thing and no one caring about anything else. Things like that are why Hitler became Hitler.

I have to agree. That's one of my favorite one hit wonders. My favorite has to be Two Princes by Spin Doctors. They've got a few other songs but they're really only well known for this song.

This one. Something about the beat, MJ's vocals in the chorus, and the content all fit very well together

I fucking love that song, tbh. I know of like 1 other song by Fastball. I know it's played on the radio before (that one that goes "I was outta my head, I was outta my mind. How could I have been so blind?"), so they're like a 2-hit wonder.
