JimCT Posted July 14, 2015 Driving this weekend one of the true one-hit wonders from my youth came on. Got me thinking we might have fun with a thread of them.This one fits I think: #1 in US/UK (I think top 10 may be good enough), the group never charted in the top 100 again (top 50?). 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JimCT Posted July 14, 2015 this charted as high (pun intended) as #10no other in the top 50 in the US 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GreetingsFromBarcelona Posted July 14, 2015 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G45iSmup6rs This song would not only be included in a one-hit wonders list but also a list of the worst songs ever! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Born To Walk Posted July 14, 2015 In the UK they were far from one hit wonders unfortunately. That one wasn't even their biggest hit! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
