One Hit Wonders

[SpyderTracks]

Some of the best tunes are the good old One Hit Wonders, especially from the 60's and 70's eras.

Post your favorites.

This one I came across somewhere, it was background music on some TV programme and we used to hear it all the time when I was a kid. It's such a great song.

Air Supply - All Out Of Love

In very much the same vein (one hit wonder, used a a theme song from my childhood):

The Unknown Stuntman, sung by Lee Majors

 

[Bigfoot]

This only got to 21 in the UK singles chart, so does it count as a hit? If top 40 counts as a hit they were 2 hit wonders.

one of the best bands back in the day, most bands like that were more about albums than singles

I’m just recalling a few tracks from what I’ll call the Atlantic 252 years. I don’t know if they’re technically one hit wonders but I couldn’t name another song by any one of these acts…

Soul Asylum - Runaway Train

Black - Wonderful Life

And of course…

The Connells - 74-75

I'm thinking but... what exactly constitutes a one hit wonder here?
