Leave the gun. Take the cannoli.
Number 34 does not constitute a hit!

Toy Soldiers by Martika (unless you're being difficult and classifying the position 35 reached by 'Martika's Kitchen' counts)
For all those wallowing in Billie Ray Martin nostaligia, she was fucking ace and that song always makes me smile in memories of the big period of handbag house between 92-95 and lasses in chiffon tops and wonderbras

I never said he only had one hit! I just said this thread had reminded me of him.
I'm raiding this thread for things to buy off itunes.

A hit, a proper hit, has to be top 20, surely?
If you released a record and it got to 39 and never got in the top 40 again I'd say you were a nearly ran, not a one-hit wonder.

I thought Python Lee Jackson was Rod Stewart in Disguise?
Another vote for Minnie Ripperton.

to those nearly rans - it was the best they had
ultimately, a hit could be the official top 75, I think they even have a top 200, but that is stretching it admittedly

What do people define as a proper one hit wonder?
I remember when that babycakes record came out, there was a few people on here that fessed up to liking it. That was a proper one hit wonder. No. 1 and then nothing else, ever again. No number 42 second hit or releases in other countries.
Ones I can think of
Wayne Wonder - No Letting Go.
Gary Byrd - The Crown
Mac Band - Roses Are Red.
Matthew Wilder - Breakin My Stride
Taja Sevelle - Love Is Contagious
Starlight - Numero Uno
Also there is Boy Meets Girl 'Waiting For A Star To Fall'. I'm stuck because on the one hand it remonds of a teenage sweetheart and on the other, I really fucking hate it.

I remember thinking that Creep would be a one hit wonder as it was a bit of a novelty hit with the swearing.
So many awesome Glastonbury memories.you mean "You get what you give" by New Radicals

Strawberry Switchblade - Since Yesterday
yes. i love this song. i love them and their look. i would have had it as wedding music, but the sentiment is almost completely 'anti wedding'. i want it at my funeral, though.
also 'hanging around', by 'britpop supergroup' - me me me
