One-hit wonders always have a way of coming back at us and bringing back good memories. Despite being either too corny or annoying after awhile, we can't seem to resist the mighty hooks emanating from one-hit wonders. A one-hit wonder is defined in Wikipedia is "the combination of artist and song that scores big in the music industry with one smash hit, but is unable to repeat the achievement with another hit. The term can refer to the artist, the song, or both together."

Here at the Junk office, we've listed down our Top 11 of one-hit wonders.

Scatman John - 'Scatman'

 

Eiffel 65 - 'I'm Blue'

 

Soft Cell - 'Tainted Love'

 

Nine Days - 'Absolutely (Story Of A Girl)'

 

Right Said Fred - 'I'm Too Sexy'

 

Modern Talking - 'You're My Heart, You're My Soul'

 

Baha Men - 'Who Let The Dogs Out'

 

Fuel - 'Hemmorrhage (In My Hands)'

 

Crazy Town - 'Butterfly'

 

Nick Carter - 'Help Me'

 

Fountains of Wayne - 'Stacy's Mom'

So you've checked out our Top 11s, what's yours?
