Junk Drawer July 6th - One hit wonders

Since there is no junk drawer so far I though I would make one. No, I don't mean teams that only win one title in the NBA and then disintegrate although that's also a nice discussion. I was just going through some lists to look for artists that only had one major (international) hit. Some might have been successful in their home country or as a touring artist later, but never achieved that level of attention on TV and the radio again. At least so far, since some people labeled one hit wonders are still young enough to produce many songs and records in the future.
Some I could come up with in no particular order:
- Los del Rio - Macarena (hey, Macarena)
- Baha Men - Who let the dogs out (who who woof woof)
- Afroman - Because I got high (he probably still is, hence no new material)
- Tatu - All the things she said (translated version from their original Russian title)
- Soft Cell - Tainted Love (successfully covered several times, so the song itself was a multi-hit)
- Vanilla Ice - Ice Ice Baby (the prototypical one hit wonder)
- Mary Mary - Shackles (both singers with success individually, but never again in that collaboration)
- Samantha Mumba - Gotta Tell You (is she still active? Probably)
- Crazy Town - Butterfly (I think I have seen the lead singer on some detox show)
- The Knack - My Sharona (took me a while to understand what they were singing)
- Alien Ant Farm - Smooth Criminal (probably still touring with that MJ sample)
- Truth Hurts - Addictive (she was someone's protege and then disappeared)
- Stacie Orrico - There's gotta be more to life (I liked her, what happened?)
- Carl Douglas - Kung Fu Fighting (still popular for comedy film scenes and TV clips)
- Babylon Zoo - Spaceman (some British guy on an Atari)
- Tasmin Archer - Sleeping Satellite (that was huge, but later she didn't seem to get much published)
- House of Pain - Jump Around
- Meredith Brooks - Bitch (She was already pretty old for a pop/rock singer when that came out)
- Deep Blue Something - Breakfast At Tiffany's (nice video)
- Rednex - Cotton-eyed Joe (Sweden's worst music export ever)
- US3 - Cantaloop (interesting melody, not much more)
- OMC - How Bizarre (indeed)
- 4 Non Blondes - What's Up (also known as 'What's going on' I guess. The leader singer last I heard wrote "Fighter" and a few other songs for Christina Aguilera)
- Tag Team - Whoomp There It Is (still blasting through sports arenas worldwide)

Maybe never again on that level, but they continued to release successful records. Nena never stopped, A-ha had a comeback in this millenium :)

I had to look up CW McCall to see if he was still alive. Apparently he is, so I’ll refrain from calling him a one hit wonder on the off chance that he will still bust out another hit. I think a CB themed song would do well on the charts these days.

Re: The Knack
I am not sure they qualify. Their follow up to My Sharona was a song called “Good Girls Don’t” that reached #11 on the Billboard Pop Charts. So techinally they had 2 hits (in fact that entire Album is great ..but they never had that kind of success again)
He is something funny …..They recorded a cover of That Thing You Do…the penultimate one hit Wonders song from the movie by the same name (as the song)

I think any movie in which you can skip 10 minutes in the middle could probably have been skipped entirely.

I went here
Unfortunately, this site definitely lists people with more than 1-hit. I guess it depends on the definition.
Some from the 2000s that I remember:
Filter Take a Picture
-This song was much different than the rest of the album. They should consider this when making the next album.
Jimmy Eat World The Middle
-It just takes some time…
Gnarls Barkley Crazy
-I liked this album and tried to think of another hit from it, but since I can’t, it belongs here. Well, for now…
hellogoodbye Here (In Your Arms)
-I don’t know. Just picked it. :)
Amy Winehouse Rehab
-She’s not quite a one-hit wonder… but her main hit was sooo ironic that I thought it should be here.
Nine Days Absolutely (Story Of a Girl)
-I remember hearing this song… but have forgotten it entirely.

Random notes...
Sixpence had two other minor hits in the US, remakes of the La’s “There She Goes” and Crowded House’s “Don’t Dream it’s Over” (A version I really like). But neither were huge hits, just charting.
Spin Doctors had “Little Miss Can’t Be Wrong” in the US, top 20 (before Two Princes)
Soul Asylum was pretty big in the US on the modern rock charts, definitely not one hit (though they had less mainstream success)
Shakespear’s Sister only had one hit in the US.. and it’s a different song! They had one other minor hit.

I love how YouTube suggests more crappy music when you look for crappy music
Apparently people who listened to the Sister(s) also listened to East 17 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4jLfCjlYD0
That was kinda like the Dutch/UK version of the Backstreet Boys (only much worse, the real version would be Take That feat. Robby Williams). The highlight of their career – in my opinion – was when one of the boys came out to be gay and girls in my class started crying hysterically.

What about the Dandy Warhols
all I can remember is thier Heroin song being big. I hate that band
Also, the Lemonheads had “Into your Arms” but they are actually a pretty good band so I will leave them be.
I can only remember Morrissey having one biggish song in the US, the stalker flavored “the more you ignore me”
I could be wrong about all of these though.

Morrisey had plenty of modern rock hits
Besides, the Smiths give him a free ride.
Speaking of modern rock, the Lemonheads had a few huge hits there (It’s a Shame about Ray, and the cover of Mrs. Robinson).
Btw the Dandy Warhols song was “Not if you were the last junkie on earth”. They kinda count as a no-hit-wonder, but they’re well known in their own right.

the dude is cult hero, but “the more you ignore me…” is his only song to chart, but yes he does get a pass

I kind of liked the idea of BE beaming knowledge across the globe and making Portland more prominent in the blogosphere so when the artist came up with it, we went with it.
It’s different than the old one. It’s a little more blended with the site motif. If people want to be mean-spirited about it, eh. I don’t get it. I’ve always found life (and community) more fun when I look at the best side of things.

Good one on T'Pau.
They still tour the country, playing that single.
Animotion’s second hit is listed earlier in this thread.

Starting lineup of Stuckey, Gordon, Prince, Charlie V, and…

I got two friends who don’t know each other who are both from Detroit and big Pistons fans, and they don’t like Stuckey anymo’. They like Will Bynum more. They were both also glad Amir Johnson got traded, because he doesn’t show any effort.

He was way overrated to start the season
Playing behind/alongside Billups made him appear more promising, and more like he could be a PG. Also, because Dumars always GUSHED about him in interviews. Repeatedly.
Now, he doesn’t really look like a PG, kinda like Jarrett Jack.

He said that someone called him a mahu and if “mahu” means that he’s the toughest wrestler in the world, then he was the biggest mahu in the world. He really played up the word and had the crowd chanting “mahu” throughout his match.

She also had a reality TV series in Germany that was similar to Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey (however he spells himself)
Not quite as funny since the two were not as uniquely dumb. But they had a gay wedding planner who was right out of the Steve Martin Father of the Bride movies.
