Ack!! New Order a “one-hit wonder”? I spit at your feet . . . 
Ooops . . meant to say:
Falco - “Amadeus” and “Weiner Blut”
j/k 
Whatever happened to OMC?
“How Bizarre” was a great tune.
Oh and, lest we forget . . Kaoma!
Their one super major hit???
LAMBADA!!
::El Gui slams the door and makes a run for it::
How could anyone forget “Blue Monday”? Or was that my imagination?
Los Lobos- “La Bamba”
Young MC- “Bust A Move”
Spandau Ballet- “True”
dantheman– I have “Pac Man Fever”, “Froggy’s Lament”, “Ode To A Centipede”, “Do The Donkey Kong”, “Hyperspace”, “The Defender”, “Mousetrap”, and “Goin’ Berzerk”. If you hear of more, would you let me know? Something about these songs really amuses me, and if there’s more, I want to get them. 
Yes ma’am, will do… If I see them, of course. Haven’t had a chance to look just yet.
A cheese sandwich, please.
Kidding. Thanks for the link, dan.
Oh, yeah, and “True Faith”, too.
No, really, I am not a fan. I just kinda like them.
You mentioned Puttin’ on the Ritz by taco. Irving Berlin did
it first, in 1929.
Why, for you, AudreyK, I’d serve up a cheese sandwich and cut off the crusts! De nada…
Capt. Nemo, good catch, but it was a one-hitter for Taco fer shurrrr…
this thread would not be complete without
Kyrie Eleison by Mr. Mister (?)
Aw, crap… I forgot to add “Escalator of life” by Robert Hazard…
Three Little Pigs, by Green Jelly, was truly horrifying.
I think Mr. Mister had another depressing hit with Broken Wings.
Harper Lee was a one-hit-wonder, with To Kill a Mockingbird. But that’s not a song, now, is it?
When I hear the words “one hit wonder” I immediately think of Play that Funky Music, White Boy by Wild Cherry. Here’s a couple more that I don’t think were mentioned.
The Night Chicago Died - Paper Lace
I’m Too Sexy - Right Said Fred
In the Year 2525 - Zager & Evans
They also had hits with “Alive and Kicking” and “All the Things She Said.” (I own that album, it’s a good one.)
“Wishing”? The only Flock of Seagulls song I ever hear is “I Ran.”
Wang Chung also had a hit with “Everybody Have Fun Tonight.”
Now that I’m here, I’d like to throw on “I Know” by Dionne Faris.
I’ve always wondered how many people actually knew what he was singing. I suspect it was all Greek to most people.
Good song, though.
Mr. Mister - Broken Wings & Kyrie were BOTH number-one on Billboard in America. In addition, Is It Love, from the same album, was a #8 hit in the U.S.
Wang Chung - They hit the American Top 40 FIVE TIMES. 1984’s Don’t Let Go and 1987’s Hypnotize Me both petered out in the low-30’s. In between, Wang Chung managed to string together three top-20 hits in America: Dance Hall Days (#16), Everybody Have Fun Tonight (#2), and Let’s Go! (#9).
Men Without Hats - Hit #20 in America with Pop Goes the World in early 1988, after going to #3 with The Saftey Dance over 4 years earlier.
Adam Ant - Goody Two Shoes hit #12 in early 1983. His next American Top 40 appearance was seven years later, with 1990’s Room At the Top (#17). Strip never made the American Top 40, though it was a much-played radio & MTV song in it’s time (1986?). My WAG is that Strip HAD to be a top-10 in the UK.
Big Country - In a Big Country was their only American Top 40 hit (#17), but IIRC, Big Country remained huge in England for some time, chalking up many UK hits.
Thunder Island by Jay Ferguson
Driver Seat by Sniff ‘n’ The Tears
Thank God for Napster – it’s nearly impossible to find 'em on CD.
I’d like to add that the entire album kicked ass.
Lisa Loeb also had a tune called “Do You Sleep”. It didn’t have the success of “Stay”, but it was a good song.
Thanks for the correction, domina.
S’more:
Mr. Big- “To Be With You”
Billy Vera and the Beaters- “At This Moment”
