Lord Larehip Wrote:A one-hit wonder is a band or artist with one hit. I see no reason to make it any more difficult than that. The ones I posted, I'll go out on a limb here, are bona fide one-hitters. yeh...but what defines "a hit?" a #1 hit, something that made the top10,top20,top40...or even a single that made the charts in any position???? and its all relative to where you live isnt it?, like what i posted previously about artists with numerous hits in some countries but not in others??!!, like the ones i posted that you disagreed with...does this mean you only think that it has to be in your location that defines overall chart success for an artist?

and then we get into another area of "band members in groups"....
ELO had one hit under their original lineup with Roy Wood at the helm instead of the more well known Jeff Lynne as "commander and chief"...that song was "10538 overture"... so technically, when original leader Wood left, these guys became ELO mk.II and were obviously not the same band....therefore,were ELO a one hit wonder from that perspective????
