"Did Babylon Zoo or Wheatus have more than one hit? If they did, I can't remember them.
Danny Jules?"
Wheatus had a few, nothing quite as popular as Teenage Dirtbag though (their cover of Erasure's Respect was pretty good)
I saw them live a while ago, they're awful...lol |

whilst Elbow have had a few 'other' singles and sell loads of albums...
the experience of their gig @ iTunes is that they will be remembered for just that one song; One Day Like This  |

My god, Alanis isn't a one hit wonder and is certainly known for more than "ironic"
One hit wonders don't sell out the MEN arena and Earl's Court....
We were actually talking about this today and the biggest one hit wonder we could think of was "amazed by you" by Lonestar. |

"for me ironic is the only good song by alanis mo...... Lol"
That may be so, but it doesn't make it her only hit.
You asked about "one hit wonders" not "artists that have only produced one track that I like". |

Except what is a "hit" isn't opinion.
You could just admit you didn't know Alanis Morrisette has had more than one hit, rather than all this blustering about opinions of what hits are. |

Surely it only counts if they only had one top 40 hit?"
