Good one, Lib.

One hit? Offspring? You spend too much time out in Colorado Thor?

One hit? Offspring? You spend too much time out in Colorado Thor?

There is no such thing.

It's the only song I considered a "hit"
I bought one of their albums (don't know if they cut more than one) what other "hits " do you wish for me to consider sir?

Original Prankster, I Want You Bad, Million Miles Away, Conspiracy of One, Gotta Get Away, Come Out and Play, Self Esteem, Gone Away, Get My Head Around You

They have had four or five Billboard top 10 albums and their ninth and latest album is currently sitting at #12.

Guess we don't listen to the same stations.

I WILL agree about Colorado. Love that state. Unfortunately, it's been 30 years since I've been there.

Ok,i also gotta call BS on the Queensryche choice. One hit wonder is more than just one hit....its ONE BIG SONG and then ...poof! GONE.

Also no maas on the Depeche Mode choice...that band has many popular hits(love that band btw...the only electronic pop band i ever admired because they were strong melodically).

Aldo Nova was an awesome pick

To be honest the 80's were chock full of one hit wonders due to this wonderful new thing called the music video,where artists could get exposure through this wonderful new thing called MTV... where as they couldn't initially get it through radio airplay based on years of work touring etc....

Here's mine:

Hate ta do this to ya mojo , but Stu busted me so here ya go, second hit by T.Twins

[Mojo Ram]

Thanks Dude. You pulled out the Rainbow....NICE! Good tune. I love that meaty guitar riff matching the organ.

Also the Bowie remake....damn that song was like a rash on the radio for awhile....lol.

@ Thor,yeah i guess the T twins had a 2nd hit...i'd forgot about that one. I cant remember if it was off the same album..? They actually opened up for The Police here in AZ in '83. <---my 1st concert btw

Great song! They opened up for Rush back in '82.

I dont think it qualifies as a 1HW ... but who cares. Remember their follow up? I dig this tune even more...
This is a crank it the F up song.
The groove around the 4:30 mark always gets me pumped up.

Forgot about that one. Just don't let Thor see that. :sly:
