Posted Monday at 00:055 days Hello everyone <3.Welcome to BOP IDOL 5 - ONE HIT WONDERS.It's your host Addy!.This time we're celebrating those artists who had one song that changed everything...one chorus that lit up the world, and the artists who made history in a heartbeat.They topped the charts, they ruled the radios, they slayed and then vanished just as fast, but we never forgot because sometimes, one hit is all it takes.Few rules that we should be aware:1) Artist only had one UK Top 40 hit.2) The song sent is not the mentioned above UK Top 40 hit.3) One hit wonder artists can be from any year (including pre-2000 release) but the track entered has to be only from 01 January 2000 - 31 December 20194) No artists allowed who have an Artist Forum on Buzzjack - whether that's solo or as a group.5) Album tracks are permitted.And please remember this is anonymous contest, so please keep everything hush hush until I present the reveals.You have until 23:59 GMT on Sunday 3rd November 2025 to submit your entry via PM-ing me Addy!.Good luck to everyone <3CONFIRMS:Addy!CowTzyCodyjimwattsJulian_AllStarBySmashMouthdandy*King RolloLee_J11HerbsgooddeltaJadeJesterWhoOddyseyJonjodanGChez WombatDobboawardinarymatto(20) Edited 2 hours ago2 hr by Addy!
Monday at 00:125 days Impakt of my retro contest theme (although with a slightly different specification this time). Am sure I should be able to find something good for this
Monday at 07:584 days I’ve sent a placeholder for now but I’ll keep looking bc this seems interesting
Monday at 09:204 days I’ve sent a query to the host! Let me in with a song I adooooore Although I have backups
Monday at 11:014 days Will find something. At least Agnes won't be able to win two Bop Idols in a row due to her No.40 smash I Need You Now.
Monday at 16:034 days I was disappointed I missed the last few so I need to remind myself to find something for this and commit.…and then remember to vote, not exactly my strongest suit but we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it!
Monday at 16:254 days Just to clarify, we will not be accepting artists who have an Artist Forum on Buzzjack - whether that's solo or as a group. The theme is very broad with many artists being eligible so let's be creative.
Monday at 16:344 days Madonna is not eligible anymore. (I know she has many hits but you know. So does about all with AF.) Edited Monday at 16:364 days by AllStarBySmashMouth
Monday at 17:014 days Guessing it was Siobhan Donaghy, but could have been Kimberley or Nadine from Girls Aloud (hadn't realised Nicola had a second solo Top 40 until just now!)
Monday at 18:254 days Author Yeah, I am waiting for few other things to clarify with mods, and will post and will update the OP with few more rules!!!
Monday at 19:164 days Author Ok few more rules added, so people can search/research for their entries!!!Update on rule #3. One hit wonder artists can be from any year (including pre-2000 release) but the track entered has to be only from 01 January 2000 - 31 December 2019#4. No artists allowed who have an Artist Forum on Buzzjack - whether that's solo or as a group. #5. Album tracks are permitted.
Monday at 21:074 days I didn’t confirm but I asked about the AF’s thing coz I was gonna send Siobhan ‘Goldfish’ coz PEOPLE NEED TO HEAR AND APPRECIATE IT!!!!!!
Tuesday at 03:154 days One further question: does the artist have to be the lead to be considered a one hit wonder? For example, if they had 1 top 40 as a lead, 1 top 40 as a feature - are they "disqualified" from meeting the criteria?OR if their one top 40 was as a feature artist, are they eligible?
