Discussion over.
They made one single (or at least, one that anyone knows), they disappeared, they were great...
For me the best one hit wonders were Jilted John, with their self-titled single.
How about the rest of yiz?

the Knack "My Sharona"
White Town - Your Woman is by far and away the best one hit wonder of all time
City definetly have the best bands playing at half-time.
O'Bama - "Eerah yeah, I'd say we can alright!"
G.O'Mahoney Trapattoni'll sort ém out!!

good callOriginally Posted by jebus
add
Spaceman - Babylon Zoo and
Brimful of Asha - Cornershop
to the list
Splodginessabounds - Two Pints of Lager and A Packet of Crisps Please.
The Only Ones(I think?) Another Girl Another Planet
and, not sure if it was a hit or not, but "Punk Rock Girl" by the Dead Milkmen is a scream.
Oh, and I nearly forgot - probably my vote for the best one hit wonder, The Vapours - Turning Japanese
Out for a spell, got neglected, lay on the bench unselected.
Two absolute classics. And the former has a serious shot at best band name.
Quality song. Its been hearing every where lately as due to the vodafone ad.

Can you Dig it? - The Mock Turtles
Quoting years at random since 1975
Cornershop had a few top Forty hits and several relatively successful albums so I don't think they qualify for this. Good call on the Mock Turtles Wolfie.
Powder - Afrodisiac (thats the way they spelled it)
Great tune. They disapeared when the singer got knocked up.
(Obviously the "Afrodisiac" worked)
Afrodisiac shrinkwrapped prepacked...

You're missing a /R there BP.
There must be a few Northern Soul singles that made no impression first time round, but broke into the top 40 in the mid '70s.

Blue Oyster Cult - Dont Fear the Reaper
The Breeders - Cannonball
(Their one notable tune anyway)
