Ok this thread is to talk about one hit wonders you love and also, what i'm calling sorta one hit wonders. Bands that had either: 1. one song that did pretty well but wasn't a huge hit or 2. a band that had a song that was huge, and then had other songs, that did pretty well, but not huge enough to constitute a "hit" does any of that make sense?
ok, for two sorta one hit wonders, that i've been listening to a ton lately: Nadasurf-Popular White Town-Your Woman anyone remember those? Popular was actually pretty big...

Blue was so annoying! Vendetta Red was sort of a one hit wonder thing. They had that one hit Shatterday and that was it. The rest of their cd sucked. But they're not that one like a year or two ago so I guess thye have time?

The other song I liked was called like, Hit 'Em Up or something by Blu Cantrell. I remember I danceskated with this guy to that song... I know there's more (mostly shameless rap and pop) but I can't think of them at the moment..

AH. And Boom Boom By The Venga Boys! We sang it in fifth grade but never understood it even if it was obvious.
'Boom boom boom boom I want you in my room Let's spend the night together.'
I don't know HOW we didn't catch on to that.
