Not bad with 16 albums out!

I’ll go with The Bloodhound Gang’s bad touch (even though I have all their albums and if you like rock then they had more than one hit, for the rest of you, some will more likely know this as the “discovery channel” song)

"Wordy Rappinghood by Tom Tom Club "

Weren't they some kind of temporary offshoot of Talking Heads more than a real group? Maybe someone can enlighten me more.

Ah I didn't realise that getting to no. 19 in the charts constituted as being a hit (I had to look that up as I hadn't heard of it). Will give it a listen though.

There and to the left a bit

"Wordy Rappinghood by Tom Tom Club

Weren't they some kind of temporary offshoot of Talking Heads more than a real group? Maybe someone can enlighten me more. "

They were formed by two members of Talking Heads (Tina Weymouth and Chris Frantz) as a side project - they also had a hit with a cover of "Under The Boardwalk" so weren't one hit wonders

"Bellouis Some: Imagination."

Unfortunately 'Some people' was a hit too, so can't be classified as a one hit wonder
