Oh come on… lol how many other can you name other than kung fu fighting!!! Screw you then!!! How are men without hats “safety dance” " Dance The Kung Fu was the follow up. It wasn't as good but it charted. Men Without Hats had another top 20 hit so sadly they don't count. Partners In Kryme - Turtle Power. That's a one hit wonder. | |||

He'd actually be a very good MC of he wasn't so cringe. | |||

"Hoddle and Waddle, who were strangely called Glenn and Chris, diamond lights. That's a belter. They had a follow up believe it or not. Yeah but only charted at 92. So not a top 40 hit. Was also a belter too. Was watching the video on YouTube the other day. I'm counting that as charted then I'm afraid. It's a tough gig trying to be a one hit wonder." yet you said Partners in Kryme's single turtle power was a definitive one hit wonder when their follow up reached 92. it is indeed a tough gig for a single entry in the top 100 . | |||

I feel top 100 is a bit harsh, the usual chart is top 40 | |||

"Mr Bloe - Grooving with Mr Bloe this IS a definitive one hit wonder " Possibly THE definitive one hit wonder. Just googled them... Only 2 singles released, the above peaked at No2, the other failed to chart | |||

"Oh I think I finally have one! fingers crossed There's No One Quite Like Grandma - St. Winnifreds School Choir" This counts. They actually appeared on Brian and Michael's "Matchstalk Men and Matchstalk Cats and Dogs" (another one hit wonder) but were uncredited. | |||
