"One Hit Wonders....."

I've just been listening/watching the selection of Music channels on sky digital and i've seen quite a few songs that have made me think "What else have they done?" Then i realised that there must be a lot more but i can't remember them all, mostly due to the fact that they are people who do one dance song and then vanish. Some have been good and we wish they would have done more or at least released an album, and some have been annoying and we are glad they faded into the nothingness that they so rightly deserve. I really want to see how many bands/groups/solo artists have come and gone while only making a small impression on the music industry. Below are just a few examples of them the aforementioned:

Scooch: (don't know if that is spelt correctly)
Bad steps rip off that got dropped by their record company after about two songs.

Vanilla:
Do-do-a-do-do phenomenon. A girl group who's song didn't get into the charts and then used to advertise B'N's. A scary rumour is knocking about that they might be re-forming.....please god NO!

Hepburn:
After two songs (one for Buffy i believe) they were also dropped by their record company.

Gary Barlow:
People believed he would be the only one to make it after That Take split up. After relising one song and an album (as far as i know) he then faded into nothing.....a shame Robbie Williams can't do the same!

Victoria Beckham aka Posh Spice:
Leaving the Spice Girls and then making a duet with Dave from Another Level which only made it to number 2. She hasn't really done much after that, but then again she doesn't really need to either.

Lolly:
Dodgy bint who obviously didn't write her own songs, one of them being "Micky". She did hang around for a bit to release an album cleverly called "my first album" which also should of been called "my LAST album" but i just wanted to s**g her off because she really annoys me!

Well, i'm sorry to say but i'll have to withdraw my posting of Hear'say as a one hit wonder as i've recently heard their new song. That's a shame!
Anyway more one hit wonders:

Sister 2 Sister:
Two sisters (hence the name) who released one song about being best friends and that’s about it.

Chumbawonba: (Don't know if that's spelt right!)
"I get knocked down but i get up again....." they didn't really seem to stick to their own advice. After releasing the aforementioned song, a song for the world cup which did pants and finally that guy called "Eggs but no Bacon" tipped that bucket of water of John Prescot.

Darkreaper

No no no! Aqua are good! Did you not see them 'trying to mime' in the Eurovision song contest? How sweaty did that guy's head get?!

K, one hit wonders, Nasser Hussain?

No in music terms, erm - Hear'Say hopefully, and as I type - Steps' radically indifferent 'You'll be sorry' starts, someone'll be sorry, and it won't be me...

Err, No Doubt's Don't Speak, Pato Banton?! Elvis?

Mandy Moore

She damn fit

> girl with the funny nose in B*Witched?

One of them is related to Keith Duffy from BoyZone and i THINK either him or one of the other blokes from boyzone is related to one of that lot from B*Witched.....haven't herad anything from them in a long time.


Anyway more one hit wonders:

Hear'say:
I know but one song after a tv series then nothing. How long does it take to release a song?

Girl Thing:
Kinda glad they only did one song! Another attempt to get that girl power thing behind them but it never really picked up.....in fact they never started.

Keith and Shane:
Did a really, really, really bad attempt at rapping and being funny but it didn't work. Their record company dropped them for not only doing a crap song but they thought song of the lyrics in thier song were a bit nasty!

Mandy Moore:
Another one of those Britney clones a 16 year old who as far as i know has done one song and not much else.

haha buffalo G, the only reason they got a record deal in the first place was cuz the company thought they'd make big money out of promoting the fact that one of them was related to that boyzone bloke.
oh how they failed.

Lucky git! You didn't miss anything.

Buffalo G?

They passed me by.

Just remebered Buffalo G. Those two "rapping" irsih sisters who are related to that bloke from Boyzone.

Fair play to you.

They all blow ponies.

And what about:

Aqua
Shampoo

er...and some others
