The finalists for me are
8675309/Jenny by Tommy Tutone and Come on Eileen by Dexy's Midnight Runners, but I think that 8675309 comes out ahead.
If you want to check yourself I might suggest http://www.onehitwondercentral.com/80s.cfm
It has all of the bands with one billboard hit from the decade listed, so you can run through and check yourself

I loved Peter Schilling's "Major Tom." I don't think most people remember him though.
Other favs: Gary Newman "Cars"
Real Life "Send Me an Angel"
Planet P "Why Me?"
