Celebrating One-Hit Wonders

Posted by on September 25th 2022 @ 8:27 pm

Today is National One-Hit Wonder Day. Whether it’s “Come On Eileen,” “Eye of the Tiger,” “Spirit in the Sky,” “I Melt With You,” or one of my absolute favorites, “Take on Me” … we’re celebrating notable songs by artists that got their 15 minutes of fame. Some of these continued to make music for many years to a devoted fanbase, while others didn’t, breaking up or following other pursuits.

What one-hit wonders do you love to listen to? Do you have a story that surrounds one? Which ones do you love to play? Do you have a video? Please share your thoughts or videos in the comments. 🙂

Ryan's favorite starter ukulele: The Enya Nova U Concert Ukulele 23” on Amazon sounds great, is easy to play, in tune and nearly indestructable. "I left it in the car through the heat of summer to see what would happen, and it still plays beautifully."
