1 Hit Wonders

[Dana]

What is it about 1 hit wonders... they either age horribly or they put on 100 pounds when they do a look back special?

 

[Margene]

Possibly because after they got a hit and then went nowhere, the angst of having had no more than a taste of success, eats them up?

Just a thought.

What is your favorite one-hit wonder song?

[Margene]

YouTube - Godley & Creme - Cry: Stereo
