I was listening to them just the other day. Wouldn't necessarily say they were a one hit wonder. It's a good album |

"Chesney Hawkes. I challenge you to name any other song he's done, without googling it"
Man not a boy, secrets of the heart, missing you already, another fine mess, caught up in circles, get a hold of yourself, live forever

Unfortunately I cannot forgive such an egregious take. Don't even think about sending me a friend request 👀 |

Sorry I have to put my foot down. I know it must hurt you so much but actions have consequences  |

"Buffalo stance. I think it was a one hit wonder. Reminds me of about 7 of us in my mini (god knows how!) driving down to saaaarfend with it blaring out. Those were the days. "
Neneh Cherry? She had more than one hit |

And the follow up song which was top 5.
"Fergal Sharkey - A good heart
What a great voice and great song, never heard from him again.
Apart from being the lead singer of the undertones  "

Gotye - somebody that I used to know
I hear he hated the fame and fled.
(Glad no one said John Farnham You're the Voice - in Australia he had a 60 year career with countless hits. Perhaps our most influential vocalist of the 20th century) |

"A-ha
rick astley
Rick astley does a really good as the front man of a smith’s cover group….
He may have “won” Glastonbury last year with the multiple sets he did! "
Fabio ! Rick does do a Smiths set with Blossoms but they are not a covers group.  |

"Come into my life - joyce simms
Good song, but know nothing about anything else she did.
Her debut All and All was also a UK hit."
I'll have to check it out |

"Love grows. Edisom Lighthouse "
Interesting fact alert.
Love Grows
My Baby Loves Lovin by White Plains
Gimme Dat Ding by The Pipkins
Beach Baby by The First Class
We’re all one hit wonders with one thing in common…. The lead vocalist on all the tracks was Tony Burrows, I think two of the tracks were even on the chart at the same time, busy feller was Tony.  |

The ‘cover band’ are an act of their own called Blossoms who do quite well with their own stuff |

Wild Border Country of Herts & Middx/West London ! |
"Dee-Lite - Groove Is In The Heart
They definitely didn’t have another hit. Not here or anywhere "
Apparently they have the narrowest margin between a No.1 & No. 2 single.
On the week "The Joker" by Steve Miller pipped "Groove...." to No. 1, it was calculated that Steve Miller sold a mere EIGHT copies more. |

"Radar Love. Golden Earing"
Always an intriguing choice as it was their only bona fide hit in the UK.
However, their song Twilight Zone actually went all the way to Number 1 in the USA (and other places I believe) and they had other hits too across the decades in many territories. |
