Aussie one hit wonders

[Tom Shines]

That "Take Me Away" song was actually pretty damn good.

I'll take Area 7's "Bitter Words". They had a follow up single, but f**k me if anyone remembers it.

I'll take Area 7's "Bitter Words". They had a follow up single, but f**k me if anyone remembers it.

Area 7 also had "Start Making Sense" "Nobody Likes A Bogan" and "No Logic"

How about Weddings, Parties, Anything's "Father's Day"? I don't think they had any other hits. I also can't believe no-one's mentioned Moving Pictures "What about me?"

 

[Tom Shines]

Okay then, Chris Franklin with "Bloke".

Yeah probably the most well known Aussie one hit wonder.

Weddings Parties Anything had another hit around the same time "Monday's expert". Only two songs I heard them sing.

And another Area 7 hit, Second Class Citizen.

What about Mark "Jacko" Jackson's single? Call me an individual or whatever it was called.

The Loved Ones- The Loved One

I dont know any other hits from them, but its a good song. INXS did a cover of it.

 

[Steel Dragon]

How many songs did Boom Crash Opera have - it couldnt have been many

also
"Communication" Dannii Minogue and John Farnham - woeful classic!

 

[carcharias]

joe dolce - shadduppa you face

Is the biggest one hit wonder from Aus ever.

In fact I think it was the biggest selling single anywhere in the world from an aussie for yonks...

 

[Tom Shines]

No, wasn't Austen Tayshus — Australiana the biggest?

 

[PARRA_FAN]

yeah thats interesting, considering its not an actual song.

Still a brilliant piece of comedy though

Spectrum- I'll Be Gone
