What are some songs that are considered one-hit wonders but in your opinion the artists have other hits also? Please name the one-hit, the

artist or group, and at least one other song by that same artist or group that you believe is also a hit. Thank you.

    I do believe or think or choose, or, whatever you want to call it, Mungo Jerry, who by the way, I am still happy to still see.

    The Dream Academy's "Life in a Northern Town"

    seems to be considered a one-hit wonder but their

    "Indian Summer" is right up there, too, for me (as is their entire catalogue for me).


    (I'd like to post the songs, too, even though you didn't officially ask.)



    "Life in a Northern Town"






    "Indian Summer"

    There are plenty of artists who have been dubbed "one hit wonders" that had but one INTERNATIONAL hit but dozens on their own turf. Or one hit in the USA but charted multiple times elsewhere.

    The hit in the US


    Also charted just about everywhere else



    The international hit


    Also charted in the UK (particularly in Scotland) and Australia

    Yes, I think The Dream Academy from my answer had other hits in other parts of the world from where I live but around here they seem to be considered a one-hit wonder.
    I have a couple of a-ha albums and I like the group a lot.
