Iggy Pop

And what was his hit?!?! :suspicious:

Turning Japanese - Vapours.

Candy

Oh yeah. :lol:

Technically, he's not a one hit wonder though. He's still recording music and still sells records. He's not only known for just that one song, either.

What are you talking about? "Lust For Life", "Louie Louie" and "I Am The Passenger" are probably better known than Candy.

And to the Warrant guy - fair point, but Big Talk, Uncle Toms Cabin and Heaven were also pretty big selling tunes by them.

The only song I can think of right now is "Cotton Eye Joe", don't know who it's by, just a bunch of farmers.

"I been married a long time ago, where did you come from, where did you go? where did you come from Cotton Eye Joe?"

Soul Asylum - Runaway Train

Soul Asylum are great.

And I predict that Daniel Powter will be concidered a one hit wonder some day..

It looks like it.

Bad Day

Jimmy Gets High

That's two hit songs.

Yeah but I think Bad Day is the only one people will remeber 10 years from now

Those songs were never on the charts though. And it's called 'the Passenger' not 'I Am the Passenger'.
