    Discussion: What is your favourite one hit wonder?

    A one-hit wonder is a person or act known mainly for only a single success. So they may have recorded several songs but only one song is what everyone remembers them by. Here's A Few Examples: - Boston - More Than Feeling U.K. Squeeze - Cool For Cats Asia - Heat Of The Moment Yes - Owner Of A Lonely Heart The Vapors - Turning Japanese Benny Mardones - Into The Night Tommy Tutone - 8675309 (Jenny) Lipps, Inc - Funky town Terry Gibbs - Somebody's Knockin' Sinead O'Connor - Nothing Compares To U Anyway, I always turn up the radio when they play Asia's Heat Of The Moment. So what's your favourite One Hit Wonder/s?

    GoBears says: Yep, The Knack's My Sharona is a ripper! :) Wrote the list above in the spur of the moment, easy to miss a couple and still many, many more classic one hit wonders especially in the golden eras of the 70's and 80's. Cheers!
