One Hit Wonders!

What are your favourite One Hit Wonders? What are the songs that make you say: "I wonder what happened to them?"

Brim Full of Asha's got to be up there....

 

Agaaaaaaa do do do *ahem*

 

Mr Blobby - And whatever he sang........

Hehehe

 

Blobby oh mr blobby! Interestingly, my blobby was played by a girl. More interestingly, the girl who played her was a lesbian. And even more interestingly, Kat's (Pinkmoon on these forums) sister is going out with her....

 

bloody hell I forgot about that

 

So, Mrs Blobby...


Where does SHE fit into all this???????????????

 

cheers for that sal..
actualy they are engaged to be married :>

 

I think Cornershop are still going. The album 'Brimful of Asha' was on (I think it was 'When I Was Born For The 7th Time') is an excellent record! There's a great cover of The Beatles' 'Norweigian Wood' on there.

The first one-hit wonder that sprang to mind for me was 'Lava' by Silversun, I liked that album quite a bit when I was little

 

why has chesney hawks not been mentioned yet?!?!

 

And what about THE SAFTEY DANCE?! How can you forget that, I love that song

 

U can't touch this (MC Hammer)
Ebeneezer Scrooge (can't remember who did it, but it was an early 90s rave track)

 

The Shamen!

 

Awwww Nice one dude, I've been wanting to know who they were for ages! I was only about 5 or 6 when the tune came out, but it's never been forgotten.

 

Devo's "Whip It" has got to be up there also...

 

Dudette! the shamen had a string of hits! (and if yer liked Ebeneezer Goode, yer won't be disapointed... all their tracks sounded pretty much the same )

One Hit Wonders..... lessee... Stiltskin - Inside (from one of the many cool levi's adds) .... voice of the beehive - don't call me baby....... Strawberry Switchblade (can't remember the song title) ... The Grid - Swamp Thing... so many

 

video killed the radio star ........buggles

 

I've just dug this out - it is indeed a great record and I think Cornershop reformed recently but I haven't heard their newer stuff. Does it still count as a "one hit wonder" if it's a brilliant band who had a great if lowkey indie career before and after the "hit"? It was the rubbish remix that got in the charts anyway!

 

Sinead O'Conner - Nothing Compares to You

Still recording as far as I'm aware but no more hits.

 

That song used to make me mum very emotional!:&

 

I preferred Mulligan and O'Hare's interpretation of it
