    One hit wonders are artists that are mainly known for one single success.

    What one hit wonders come to mind? Why do you think one hit wonders don't last after their hit?

    For me, I think of Gangnam Style from PSY. The song itself had blown up too big, and all his other music really didn't live up to the craziness that was Gangnam Style.

    That's a good choice for one hit wonders, but Psy did have his Gentlemen video too that did get rather big though not nearly as big as Gangnam Style.


    Now, you might laugh at this, but the first song that came to mind was this:

    This might have been a one hit wonder before a lot of people on this website was old enough to remember it (or wasn't even born O_O ), but still. THIS SONG IS FREAKING AWESOME SOMEONE NEEDS TO DO A MAXIE/ARCHIE/STEVEN MMD OF IT

    We can all agree that DJ Khaled was a one-hit wonder. The only song anyone knows by him is that one song "All I do is Win" or whatever. :P

    Everyone on this topic will agree with me when I say that Baauer was a one-hit wonder. You may not recognize the name, but he made the Harlem Shake video. You know, the internet phenomenon back a year ago?

    Honestly, I think All about that bass, and the artist who sung it was a one hit wonder. I've honestly never heard about her before that song or since that song.

    PSY only had one huge hit and of course that was Gangnam Style. Nothing else really comes to mind when I think of one hit wonders because I don't listen to pop music very much.
