One hit wonders with more than one good song

[Dennyislife]

I was listening to this lot earlier



When I stick on the Christmas song of theirs ( bell end is a immature name for the end of your penis)



And it me to this one now obviously they are a slightly jokey parody of a band but what other one hit wonders have something else as good as their big hit

i dont know if this counts cuz they had like 3, but their second was the best

This was Rainbow’s only hit


But it doesn’t hold a candle to their 70s material

Genesis with Ray Wilson was a zero hit band.

Not so.
Congo was a top 5 smash in Hungary

 

[Mitch Weaver]

The Wallflowers are a great band, idgaf who says otherwise, still putting out solid albums.

 

[Mitch Weaver]

Fastball is pfg too if you dig solid power pop

Don't get me started, Mike hyper-focused on the chart performance for weeks. Fucking miserable time.

@Mitch Weaver , I appreciate your factual awareness...

It did better in America than I remembered.

Everybody knows Mountain from Mississippi Queen but the rest of that album is pretty good.

Iron Butterfly with In a Gada da Vida but the rest of their shit is pretty good too.

The whole first Darkness album is great all the way through 10/10. The second one is about 6/10, so definitely worth checking out. After they quit the blow it went to shit 100% nothing worth listening to since.

You ever see the Ritchie Blackmore documentary? It's so funny and Spinal Tap-y. At one point when he's cycling through singers and people in Rainbow he's says basically "well I was trying to write whatever would sell the most and he had a voice that I thought could help us sell more records" or something to that effect, I think about Joe Lynn Turner. Not "I wanted to push myself as an artist" or any of that kinda shit just like "I was trying to figure out what the common mouth breather would hand over money for."

April Wine is a one hit wonder in most of the world but had 10 years of albums with amazing shit on them before their "hit."

 

[Jesse Ventura]

Marcy Playground is known for Sex and Candy but this song is PFG.




Biz Markie is mostly known for Just A Friend but I always enjoyed this one.

 

[Bullhauler Bob]

Thin Lizzy is criminally underrated, and underappreciated. So many good songs that aren't 'The Boys are Back In Town' (which still fawkin rules):

 

[Patrick O'Neal]

This is kind of a vibe.

People tend to think Outkast and Crowded House are one hit wonders but they both have great discographies.
