Babylon Zoo - Spaceman
Aqua - Underwater love
Berry - Sunshine after the rain
Often songs used in TV adverts become famous, but no one ever hears the bands other material - most Levi jeans ads of the 90s
There is normally a very good reason one-hit-wonders exist...a flukey great song from a crap group.

If you really want to find a lot of "One Hit Wonders", you don't have to look but to the music of the 80's to hit the jackpot! Let's see, there's "Men at Work", Devo, Chris Isaac, "Emerson, Lake and Palmer", "Vanilla Ice", "Salt and Peppa", "New Edition", "The Talking Heads", Robert Palmer, the "B-52's", "UB-40", "Chaka Khan", just to name a few! It was the "New Wave" generation, and I was a teenager then and it's embarrassing to admit it now, but I loved that stuff!! I wonder if the "Wave" will ever "come back"? (They said the 70's "never would", and look what happened with that! Never thought I'd see "bell-bottom jeans" again. I guess that means ANYTHING could happen?) LOL
Hey "DJK"- GO BLOW A MONKEY!!!

Murray Head was a one hit wonder in the 80's with "one night in bangkok". Also try "i can't wait" from nu shooz. Hope it helps.

The Blow Monkeys-Digging your scene
TERA I disagree with you. All the bands you listed have more than one hit.
