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

Alanis Nadine Morissette (born June 1, 1974) is a Canadian and American[1] singer-songwriter, guitarist, record producer and actress. She has won 16 Juno Awards and seven Grammy Awards, was nominated for two Golden Globe Awards and also shortlisted for an Academy Award nomination. Morissette began her career in Canada, and as a teenager recorded two dance-pop albums, Alanis and Now Is the Time, under MCA Records Canada.

Her first international album was the rock-influenced Jagged Little Pill, released in 1995. Jagged has sold more than 33 million units globally.[2][3][4] Her following album, Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie, was released in 1998 and was a success as well. Morissette took up producing duties for her subsequent albums, which include Under Rug Swept, So-Called Chaos and Flavors of Entanglement. Her eight studio album, Havoc and Bright Lights, was released on August 28, 2012. Morissette has sold more than 60 million albums worldwide.

I wouldn't class her as a 1 hit wonder

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.

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.
