Earlier today I gave you a bit of a blast from the past with a collection of Australia’s finest one hit wonders. If you’re keen for some more one hit wonders, check out these posts all around the music channel.
- Stacey shows us that even hippies create irritating one hit wonders. “Afternoon Delight,” “In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida,” and “Spirit in the Sky” are just some of the songs on her Hippie Sounds hit list.
- Bruce at Our Digital Sounds also gets cheesed off by one hit wonders, particularly gems by Nena and a-ha.
- Bruce is at it again at The Rock Dose, with a tribute to Richard Harris and his one and only hit, “MacArthur Park.”
- Dave takes us through five of the best at Killed by the Video Star. Of course, the very first song to air on MTV “Video Killed the Radio Star” makes the list.
- Scott at Metal Martyr’s twisted the theme a little to vent about the songs that get stuck in his head. Some of them are one hit wonders, some aren’t, but they’re all ridiculously catchy.
- Mike at Toronto Unplugged did the same thing with a list of super catchy Canadian tracks. If you don’t believe him, play the songs and find out!
- Deb at She Plays Music brings us the best of the girls. I was amazed to discover The Divinyls are considered one hit wonders by folks outside Oz!
- The Beatles definitely weren’t one hit wonders, but Gilan at The Beatles Invasion loves plenty of artists that are! Soft Cell, The Knack and Cornershop all make this awesome list.
