Skynyrd weren't a one hit wonder band, it's just that nowadays not many kids know other songs by them. You could say the same about zeppelin, some people only know stairway and whole lotta love, but they weren't a one hit wonder band.

Anyway

Loverboy - Working for the weekend.

Quiet Riot - Cum on feel the noize

Derek and the Dominoes - Layla (although I love their album)

America - A Horse with no name.

Wild Cherry - Play that funky music (was that a cover I'm not sure but it's the best known version.)

Blind Melon ain't no one hit wonders... go take a listen to their self titled album, it fucking rocks. And also it doesn't jelp that the lead singer, a certain Mr Shannon Hoon, died while on tour although they did realise at least 2 studio albums.

And the Skynyrd thing, no chance they were a 1 hit wonder band, people are just ignorant.

Anyways, i'd say MC Hammer - can't touch this.

Neither The Verve nor Skunk Anansie were one hit wonders.

The Drugs Don't Work by The Verve was number 1 the week Diana died. Elton John replaced it. Lucky Man was a top 5 hit too. And Urban Hymns was a Number 1 album for quite a while. It's generally considered one of the best albums of the 90s.

Mansun - wide open space

this is me being terribly ignorant. I'm sure they've released more, I just cant be assed to listen to the album - just that one song. Which is strange, I usually get an urge to know more about bands i like. Just can't really be...bothered. Nice song though. They may be one hit wonders, they may have a billion other hits. Dunno.
