    Default Biggest One Hit Wonders

    Driving along today and out from the radio comes Margaritaville. Couldn't resist singing along. Got me thinking about one hit wonders. For me it's got to be Jimmy Buffett. He's has to be the most successful. List yours.

    Keep your concentration high and your angles low!

    Despite the high cost of living, it's still very popular.

    "Ice Ice Baby" by the one and only Vanilla Ice. What a cheese ball song that was, I still can't believe how popular it was.

    Oh yea, awesome, remember that one, and how could we ever, ever forget....the 80's, the "all inclusive" decade...

    "Sunny" by Bobby Hebb! Top 25 in 1966, then never had another hit.
