This is Blackstreet's biggest song. They had several albums and were not obscure but this one was huge. So kind of counts.

I like the way you work it. No Diggity. I got to bag it up.


Now that's a lyric.

Spice Girls - Wannabe: not a one hit wonder but I would rather hear nails across a chalk board than hear this.

So many NON one hit wonder and NON weird songs being posted....

But selection of music none the less.

Plenty of odd ball stuff as well.

Always need to consider the era and the genre....

Cheers

This isn't techically a one hit wonder because this guy had other releases AFAIK (and I may have posted this earlier in the thread), but enjoy...

Not sure how big of a hit this was, but they play a bit of it on the Radio. Canadian. 'Bout the same time as Quarterflash

The not so wierd and not so one hit wonders are keeping the thread alive until a gem comes along.

I think it's a fair balance.

Just sayin'.....and that's all I'm doing. Not arguing.
