Songs that are described as ‘One Hit Wonder’ songs are described as songs from singers or bands that had one big song, with no other song in their library charting or catching fire. Here are a few pop ‘One Hit Wonders’ that we think you’ll agree are great tunes…
Although Sisqo had success with his ‘Thong Song” he never hit the charts again, thankfully. Staying in the same neighborhood, “Baby’s Got Back” by the talented Sir Mix-a-lot was all about the booty, literally.
“Macarena” by Los del Rio is the perfect one hit wonder in that it came out of left field, was performed by unknowns, and disappeared as quickly as it arrived. Finally, the theme song from the popular ‘Friends’ series, “I’ll Be There for You” by the Rembrandts was a big hit, unfortunately, their only top 10 tune.
