Good One-Hit Wonders That We Still Love
Here at The Digest we love listening to music, and we have a soft spot in our hearts for one-hit wonders. Here are 15 good one-hit wonders that we still love:
1. Eddie Murphy – Party All the Time:Â Who wouldn’t want to party after hearing this throwback? Like Eddie Murphy’s girl, you too, can party all the time here.
2. Fastball – The Way:Â Fastball threw us a curveball when they exited the limelight so fast after releasing this hit. Listen to the full track here.
3. Deep Blue Something – Breakfast at Tiffany’s:Â This is one of those good one-hit wonders that we’ll never get sick of. Click here to have breakfast at Tiffany’s one last time.
4. Veritcal Horizon -Â Everything You Want:Â You always know it’s going to be a good night once you’ve heard this song. Listen to it here.
5. Lou Bega – Mambo No. 5:Â Mambo No. 5 is the epitome of a good one-hit wonder, and we can’t deny it’s quite catchy. Relive the rhythm here.
6. Duncan Sheik – Barely Breathing:Â A song that is often forgotten by most, but we still can’t get enough of it. Check it out here.
7. J-Kwon – Tipsy: You’ve found yourself out at a bar more than once bobbing your head to this one. The next time you decide to get “tipsy” add this song to your playlist.
8. Chumbawamba – Tubthumping: No recent one-hit wonder list would be complete without Chumbawamba’s Tubthumping! Get knocked down here (just be sure to get up again).
9. Jennifer Paige - Crush: This song always did have a bold attitude. I for one, had a crush on Jennifer Paige the first time I saw this music video.
10. Harvey Danger – Flagpole Sitta: We’re not sick, but we’re not well! Thanks to the fact that this was the last we heard from Harvey Danger. Get “not” well here.
11. Eiffel 65 – Blue: Eiffel 65 may have just been ahead of their time when they recorded this hit. They disappeared quite quick and for that we too, are blue. You can be blue here.
12. Crazy Town – Butterfly:Â Crazy Town was our Butterfly until they turned back into a caterpillar and fell out of the limelight. Check it out here.
13. Shop Boyz – Party Like a Rockstar:Â Admit it, you’ve partied like a rockstar. Don’t be ashamed! Relive the fond memories here.
14. Asher Roth – I Love College:Â It might be too soon to tell, but I’d bet that nothing Asher Roth releases will top this instant classic. Listen to it here.
15. The Outfield – Your Love:Â The 80’s were awesome, and this song will never let us forget it. Click here if you don’t want to lose the love tonight.
