August 29, 20231 yr 2013/14 has a shit ton of #1 one-hit wonders: Bingo Players - Get Up (Rattle) Storm Queen - Look Right Through Route 94 - My Love Mr Probz - Waves Secondcity - I Wanna Feel MAGIC! - Rude Nico & Vinz - Am I Wrong Lilly Wood - Prayer In C I was just about to mention Magic’s Rude!
August 29, 20231 yr ^^^ and this too: Y66j_BUCBMY #17 in 2014 and no more charted songs by them. Their collaboration with Santana and Rob Thomas might be a proper hit if it were released in 2000s. Edited August 29, 20231 yr by Cow P
August 29, 20231 yr Ah yes, the song that sounds like an Imagine Dragons rip-off but is actually better than anything ID has ever released (unpopular opinion I'm sure!)
August 29, 20231 yr Another good one from 2015 for me! 8SeRU_ZPDkE?si=OUvRur7DThV-U2yd not G-Eazy of course though as he had a couple more!
August 29, 20231 yr Who could ever forget this one-hit wonder? 6JCLY0Rlx6Q Always gutted about this one - they have so many songs that I love and only the one hit to show for it......:(
August 29, 20231 yr Always gutted about this one - they have so many songs that I love and only the one hit to show for it......:( Yep. Like Different Colours. Shame that never became a top 40 hit
August 29, 20231 yr Another good one from 2015 for me! 8SeRU_ZPDkE?si=OUvRur7DThV-U2yd not G-Eazy of course though as he had a couple more! She now goes by SayGrace? Guess Paul Oakenfold filed a lawsuit after all!!
August 29, 20231 yr Yep. Like Different Colours. Shame that never became a top 40 hit I've got a list! Tightrope One Foot Surrender Jenny Iscariot
August 29, 20231 yr She now goes by SayGrace? Guess Paul Oakenfold filed a lawsuit after all!! It doesn't say anywhere explaining that I've checked but she's been Saygrace since 2019!
August 29, 20231 yr It doesn't say anywhere explaining that I've checked but she's been Saygrace since 2019! Yes I couldn't find anything either actually. I was intrigued by this and found out that the original Grace was actually called State of Grace first but they had to change the name themselves as that was also taken :lol:
August 29, 20231 yr Feels like an appropriate time for Radio 1 to do their One Hit Wonders day again. Didn't someone here make a playlist of everything they played?
August 29, 20231 yr Not sure on a playlist, but Jade listed them all in the OP of this legendary thread: http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?s...pic=176513 Edited August 29, 20231 yr by Dobbo
August 29, 20231 yr Interesting that Hellogoodbye were left out and yet they included Kosheen who had another top 10 hit in 2003...
August 29, 20231 yr Not sure on a playlist, but Jade listed them all in the OP of this legendary thread: http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?s...pic=176513 Ha that thread actually popped into my head when 2014 songs were mentioned in here as some of them already appeared in that show just a year later :lol:
August 29, 20231 yr Always gutted about this one - they have so many songs that I love and only the one hit to show for it......:( At least they have a few others which have racked up quite decent streaming numbers, 'Anna Sun' and 'One Foot' both have well over 100m on Spotify!
August 29, 20231 yr At least they have a few others which have racked up quite decent streaming numbers, 'Anna Sun' and 'One Foot' both have well over 100m on Spotify! That's true - and they have a pretty dedicated fanbase :)
August 29, 20231 yr Author Not sure on a playlist, but Jade listed them all in the OP of this legendary thread: http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?s...pic=176513 Oh well I guess that has killed off my thread in here then. :lol: I didn’t consider that it would even be the first time it has been done, but I wasn’t very thorough in my research when I started, plus to be clear this thread was not “list as many one hit wonders as you can think of” which some I think were doing, but rather I was inviting ones to “nominate a one hit wonder you enjoyed” from the last 23 years.
