What was his name?

Peter Blakeley. Had two albums, but no hit other than that one. Think he faded out in LA somewhere, still trying to make his 3rd album...

Thats him Bartman!

And leave ratcat alone! There best of is a double cd, 40 songs and its great!

Depending on the way you look at it, Led Zeppelin's only real hit single in Oz was Whole Lotta Love....

Glen A Baker's favourite is In the Year 2525 by Zager and Evans.

But I think My Sharona is the number one "one hit wonder" of all time. That friggin' song gets played so often.

Hooked on a feelin' - Blue Swede is another worth mentioning. It was a hit a few times but they had nothing else.

.

wasnt Stairway to heaven a hit here?? if it was released as a single

 

[Everlovin' Antichrist]

No mate. Not released as a single I think but definately didn't chart as a single either way.

 

[Booyah]

Los Lobos
La Bamba

Not really one-hit wonders. They did another song called Tequilla, which was great.

"I Can't Break Away" by Big Pig

 

[SpaceMonkey]

Gwynth Paltrow
Cruisin

THat song was a duet with Huey Lewis, and he had a lot of other hits. I guess it still holds true for Gwyneth though.

We Are The World
USA For Africa

That chick i cant remember her name. Small tits black short hair she sings
Toy Soldiers

That chick i cant remember her name. Small tits black short hair she sings
Toy Soldiers

That would be Martika...she had a couple of other hits...I Feel The Earth Move Under My Feet and some other dribble I can't (and refuse to) remember 8)

 

[nöyd]

Don't Worry Be Happy should really be the best one hit wonder of all time, for the simple fact that it doesn't actually feature ANY MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS at all. Every sound and note is from the mouth of Bobby McFerrin (who is very much alive and well and is now a conductor for some orchestra in USA) and he hates to sing Don't Worry Be Happy nowadays...

Remember that cruddy song in the 90's with the kids wearing back to front American Baseball clothing :?: :?: :?:

"Kriss Kross will make ya...JUMP! JUMP! Uh-huh! Uh-huh!" :lol: :lol: :lol: :roll:
