If you do a part three, I suggest "Better Days" by Citizen King.
“Bound For The Floor” by Local H
The Verve Pipe - Freshman
I don’t think anyone knows them for anything else
Nada surf- popular
@Creepy Kerri I know them for more than just that. I’m friend with them.
"Standing outside a broken phone booth with money in my hand" by The Primitive Radio Gods
I always heard "Up and down harder baby"....had some awkward moments with that one.
@Steve A great song none the less...
Also. Bittersweet symphony-👆
@@leviathan_is_me same I coulda swore that's what the loop said and my mom loved the song when I was a kid which made for lots of side eyes and awkwardness in the car
My God I forgot about this song!!
Republica: Ready To Go is a huge one that comes to mind
They also did "Drop Dead Gorgeous."
@@GNVS300 I actually heard it a few times on the radio in the US when it came out. In any case, obviously "Ready to Go" was a much bigger success.
That whole album is full of adrenaline and fun. I love their techno rock style.
Cedar Point visitors know that song very well.
@@TheJbhmetal Holly is still one of my favorite songs to listen to from that album
Eagle Eye Cherry “Save Tonight” definitely should be one for the future. Would love to hear your take on Eagle Eye Cherry
Both of his sisters were also one hit wonders in Europe. Especially Titiyo with "Come Along with Me" in 2001
Denmark's alt rock goto
I still can't believe that Eagle Eye Cherry is his actual legal name from birth, that is so awesome.
@@4ll3sb4n4n3 is he related to Neneh Cherry?
@matt alen Yeah I know, so crazy to believe that is his actual name and not a stage name that he came up with. He is also the son of Jazz trumpeter Don Cherry too, which is pretty cool.
Not going to lie, the only thing I remember the Crash Test Dummies song for is the Weird Al parody.
And the singer’s deep ass voice.
Ooooonce, there was this kiiiiiiiid who, took a trip to Singapore and brought along his spraypaint.
@@chriswhinery925 And wheeeeeeeeen... he finally came back... He... had... cane marks all over his bottom.
Superman's Song.
@@MistsMagic he said that they were from when the warden hit him soooooooo haaaaaaarrrrrrrd.
Fun fact: Green Jelly's original lineup featured Maynard James Keenan and Danny Carey of Tool.
Danny was in from 1985 and Maynard 1990 whenTool went big they focused their attention on that but Danny was in 5 bands at the time including playing for Carole King
Maynard is mentioned by name in the song, Green Jelly Sucks too.
.
Not true, people WAY over-state Maynard's involvement with the band. Maynard played a VERY minor role on a couple songs of theirs in the 90s, but they had been going since the '81. He was only doing some brief and sparse appearances and definitely was NOT a member of their original lineup or even a full-fledged member of the band by any means.
Why does he keep saying Jello? I thought the band's name was Green Jelly? Shrug.
It's funny The Verve is on here, when there was another one-hit wonder in the 90s by a band called The Verve Pipe called The Freshmen. It's so easy to get the two confused and mixed up lol.
Neither was The Verve. They had Simple Man and Bittersweet Symphony.
@@pickeljarsforhillary102 and the drugs don't work...
@drummerguy 85 Depends on which chart you're looking at
The Freshman might be my #1 90s song.
@@pickeljarsforhillary102 they’d probably be a two hit wonder in that case.
From an American standpoint, The Verve are severely underrated. That whole album Urban Hymns is a masterpiece. “Bittersweet Symphony” isn’t even the greatest song on that album yet I still love that song. Don’t get me wrong.
Personally, I think “The Drugs Don’t Work” is the REAL shining star from that record!!!
Agree!
I thought Sonnet was a minor hit in the US. Also, I've heard Lucky Man on the radio a few times recently, which I initially was reintroduced to online. I somehow missed that one on the album but it's probably my favorite song off that album currently. That or Rolling People
I'll listen to that if you check out, "Halo," by Deep Blue Something, deal?
Lucky Man still gets radio play on 91x in San Diego.
Nah, Urban Hymns is way too long and soft
Maybe 4-5 good songs
The verve’s album were so damn good.
It’s ashame the drugs don’t work and sonnet didn’t become a hit in America.
And Lucky Man!
The Verve are fucking sweet
@@plugspecial lucky man was a minor hit here in the u.s. and charted. Should’ve been much bigger tho
The Verve rule. A storm in heaven is legit brilliant.
@@daneleslie9534 shes a supetstar is insane, and beautiful mind are insane
My mom met the lead singer of Spacehog after a concert in the mid 90s. He drew a picture for her and she described him as "weird, but nice".
"Cannonball" is another great song, in addition to "In The Meantime," that most people know but to which very few know the title. It's made me wish I had an app on my phone that I could ask, "Hey, what's the song that goes 'bow-oo-wow-ah, bow-oo-wow-ah, bow-oo-wow-ah, bow-oo-wow-ah . . .?"
There's room for a 3rd. Here are some suggestions:
Fastball: "The Way"
Semisonic: "Closing Time"
Refreshments: "Banditos"
Verve Pipe: "The Freshman" (I know they had more, but this really was their 'one hit'.)
Here's the most obscure hit I own:
Oleander: "Why I'm Here"
Oleander had a hit with Are You There also.
Out of My Head by Fastball was big too.
I still listen to that entire album by Oleander. Also, excellent choice on Banditos. I was hitting the comments to mention that song myself.
Fastball are a really interesting case. They had one top 20 hit in the US.
It was "Out of My Head". "The Way" didn't even make the Hot 100. Another victim of the airplay vs. record sales dichotomy of the late 90's.
Was gonna say Fastball in no way was 1 hit with "The Way". "Outta My Head" maybe. I liked "Fire Escape" as well, that song is the 90's in that first riff 100%. You hear that opening guitar and instantly know it was 1990's.
I’m surprised What’s Up by 4 Non Blondes wasn’t on here
The techno version was horrible though. One of our local stations plays Morphine and Chocolate once in a while.
There best song is Mary's House , was on a wayne's world soundtrack I think
I personally think Bloodletting is better but yes 4 Non Blondes should be included
it was bad
Despite the song, liking "Breakfast at Tiffany's" is probably not a firm basis for a long-term relationship.
not even liking it. only that they both "kinda liked it"
Exactly. That's why the song is about breaking up and they only thing they got out of it was they watched that movie
@@The_Keh27 As she recalled, she thought, they both kind of liked it. It might be the most non-committal line in a song ever.
Always love to see “Three Little Pigs” get some love lol.
Orange KRUNCH!!
My high school band formed around this song!
We did our own video of it as an assignment in the days when you had to sign the video recorder out from the school library overnight or for the weekend.
😆 Our audio recording was sooo lofi and crappy..! And then for the video, we had cardboard cutout guitars for some reason..🤔
Except he said Green Jello
That album slaps!! Also I was told that both Maynard and Danny from tool-- where involved....
Correction, I knew about them before this dude announced it.😪
EMF - Unbelievable?
OHHHHHH
WTF was that?
When Andrew Dice Clay was at his height.
That’s because they had another top 20 song...
I said this on the last video, but Kidneythieves "Before I'm Dead" is one that sticks out for me. Came out in the late '90's and was most notably used in the Queen of the Damned soundtrack (which is the best thing about that film, imo)
Killer song, but imo Chino Moreno and Chester Bennington were the best parts of the film/soundtrack lol I get chills just thinking of Chester singing that chorus. Glad I rediscovered this one for sure
Does tal Bachman’s “she’s so high” count?
My alt station plays it so kinda
That's my theme song for life. I have that song on 2 mixes. Every time it plays I hit repeat.
Absolutely
@Steve A Too bad he couldn't hold a candle to his dad's talent. (All this time, didn't know he was Randy's son! I'll be damned).
@@EJY318 I know I did!
At least Jesus Jones never claimed to be bigger than the Beatles
Cannonball and Cumbersome are some of my favorites. They're definitely on my 90s playlist. Another one that you didn't mention is "Space Lord" by Monster Magnet. The song and its music video were just so over the top, that's what I love about it.
Monster magnet was known for negasonic teenage warhead before spacelord tho
And Power Trippin did well too
“Waters Edge” was a way better 7M3 song than “Cawwwmbersurrrrrme” Imo.
How about "My My"? I really enjoy that record whole...
I agree with you
For real. So is Lucky.
And Lucky was better than Waters' Edge. But you'll struggle to find a bad track from 7M3
Waters edge is great
Bitter Sweet Symphony is one of my favorite singles from the 90s.
Check out the cover by First To Eleven
Eww
@@leviathan_is_me it’s just my opinion :) if you don’t like it, that’s alright. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
@@davidepling724 alright :)
I agree! I was driving through the wooded area near Monterrey, CA after a rain when Bittersweet started playing. It was a perfect backdrop and I relieve those moments every time I hear it!
This series could seriously go on with several more lists because there's just so much material to work with. Love these videos. I shall offer a suggestion I haven't seen listed. Semisonic- "closing time"
He covered it in the first video he did on this topic.
Bound For The Floor - Local H
Touch, Peel, And Stand - Days Of The New
Really Good One Hit Wonders, Even Better Bands
Days of the New, the bizzaro world version of Simple Plan.
Can't Forget
Save Yourself - Stabbing Westward
Days of the New was the shit, and had several hits...
@@saucegrgrfin2720 Man, gotta spin Darkest Days in my car when I leave work now.
@@nightmarefanatic1819 Not Always A Bad Thing lol
Crash Test Dummies where definitely much more successful in Canada. As I am from Canada, I still remember a lot of their singles that where at least released here
2 songs that come to mind are
“Two Princes” by Spin Doctors. aka the song everyone knows but nobody knows what it’s called.
And “Hey Leonardo” (She Likes Me for Me) by Blessid Union of Souls.
Lately i’ve been going back listening to “90s Pop Rock Essentials” on spotify. Has some good radio rock from that era.
Spin Doctors had two hits.
Spin Doctors had three, Lil Miss Can't Be Wrong, Two Princes and Jimmy Olsen's Blues. A fourth single What Time Is It was a rock radio hit but didn't make the Billboard hot 100.
Aw yes, the song that always plays in the background when someone puts on that hemp hat!
"Hey Leonardo" wasn't remotely the biggest hit in Blessid Union of Souls's career. Their first single, "I Believe", hit the top 10 in the US.
Thanks for the Spotify recommendation
The singer from Deep Blue Something looks like Josh Homme fused with that one guy from Firefly (the show)
That’s green jelly guys, not primus.
I was about to say-
THANK YOU!
@@RockedNet On the story post it seemed 90% of the comments were “pRiMus??”
It's a shame that they had to change their name from Green Jello to Green Jelly because of Bill Cosby and the Jell-O pudding.
@@wstine79 still pronounced Jello. Lol
New Age Girl - Dead Eye Dick
Released: June 1994
I remember this song when i was in 1st year high school as its always play in every radio stations. One of the most played songs back in the day of most of the radio stations in the Philippines. Considered as one of the One-Hit-Wonder Bands in 90’s Alternative Rock Era.
yes!!! this one!
Dumb and Dumber
She don't eat mean (but she sure likes take bone)...
Breakfast at Tiffany's was proper 90s super market background music. Usually on a playlist which featured Light House Family and The Beautiful South.
Perfect for coffee shops and CD stores
It's probably not hip enough for coffee shops and cd stores in the UK. I'm thinking of when I was a kid and walking around Kwiksave and low-cost with my mum.
I work at a grocery store i hear it at least 3 times a shift...just fades into the background, almost like muzak
The 90s were the decade of one hit wonders
Two that you could have added were Semisonic with Closing Time and The Verve Pipe with The Freshmen.
You could argue that, "Singing in My Sleep," by Semisonic was a hit; it made it to #11 on the Alternative chart and #31 on Billboard Mainstream Rock.
@@brandonjames412: I never heard of that song before, I'll check it out.
I actually think Photograph is a better song than The Freshman
Toadies had a great track off of a great album.
“Possum Kingdom”
Len-Steal My Sunshine. I think that was still the 90's lol.
You are correct! I was lying on the grass on Sunday morning of last week and it came on, in fact.
I love these! Please do a part 3 with Local H, they 're great!
I LOVE THEM!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁
Bound for the floor.... great song....😘
Eddie Vedder was good too!
@@desireedecerio7790 🎶 yeah,ya just don't get it, keep it copacetic, yeah ya learn to expect it, y'know you're so pathetic, and ya don't, and ya don't 🎶
Mmm mmm mmm mmm is one of the oddest to name's when there is people that aren't familiar with the song
As a Canadian, I can't think of the Crash Test Dummies as a one hit wonder.
If I hear the actual song, the first thing that comes to mind is the lyrics from the Weird Al version.
"Once... there was this guy who... made his wife so mad one night that she cut off his weiner..."
Green Jello having to change their name to Green Jelly was a sad day in Rock
New Radicals played a Y100 Festival in Philly and opened with their hit. They played the rest of the set, and their family showed up toward the end of their set. They ended up playing You Get What You Give again. 😂♥️
Crash Test Dummies were far from a one hit wonder here in Canada. I was surprised to see them on the list, but Canadian Content laws probably made it seem like they had a bigger career here than in the States.
Americans didn’t like the tragically hip either so we all know they have no taste lol
Still so many more one hit wonders you can do a 3rd
Green Jelly was awesome! They were fun in a FNM way.
Breakfast at Tiffany sounds like music you hear when you building your Sim a home
Exactly.
The album, "Home," is actually pretty great, overall, in my opinion. "Breakfast at Tiffany's," isn't even one of the better songs on it.
They aren’t technically touted as a one hit wonder, due to being highly successful in their home country of Australia, but “I Touch Myself” by Divinyls charted highly in the Billboard charts at #4 in 1991 despite the band doing a number of gigs in the United States in the eighties as well as making an appearance at the 1983 US Festival. Despite having a huge number of hits in Australia in the eighties such as “Boys in Town,” “Science Fiction,” “Pleasure and Pain,” “Back to the Wall” and my favourite “Sleeping Beauty.” “I Touch Myself” was their only huge hit in the United States even gaining controversy with its release in 1991 with various radio stations refusing to play the track due to it being a Frank reference to female masturbation. In 2014, the song became a breast cancer awareness anthem, a year after the death of Divinyls vocalist Christina “Chrissy” Amphlett at age 57 after a three year battle with breast cancer, mind you she had been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis since the late nineties. The song had been sung by various female figures in Breast Cancer Awareness PSA’s such as Serena Williams.
It's funny that The Edge was jealous that he hadn't written "You only Get What You Give" because I remember telling my friends back in high school when the song came out that to me it sounded like U2 meets The Offspring.
I remember hearing "Bittersweet Symphony" at Disney World back in 2014. I thought that was pretty ironic! XD
Amazing that "(Got You) Where I Want You" made so much out of just two chords.
Presidents of the United states of America did more with 1 string....
NEVER heard of the group OR song....
As a Brit, I completely agree that the verve are a one hit wonder. Yes I can probably name a few more songs but that is the only one people know and care about
In the UK its their signature song for sure, gets played more than all their other work put together. But you do still hear things like Sonnet, Lucky Man and The Drugs Don’t Work now and again.
90's had a bunch of two-hit wonders
Tpotusa- lump, peaches
Seven Mary three - cumbersome, waters Edge
Stabbing Westward - save yourself, what do I have to do
Paula Cole - I don't wanna wait, where have all the cowboys gone
We could go all day on two hit wonders!!!!
I literally heard the "Breakfast At Tiffany's" song at Walmart earlier this month. That's it. That's all I have.
As you recall, do you think, that you kind of liked it?
Also if there’s a volume 3 of this, put Local H on there. Mid 90s OHW, but they are sincerely one of the most underrated bands out there - two person band who have consistently put out fantastic music for over 30 years.
Underrated maybe... 1 hit wonder?... no, they were more than that...
They weren’t really a one hit wonder.
I LOVE THEM!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁
“Doubt” is a great record and they had a few hits in the U.K.
Right Here Right Now was as ubiquitous as a song can be that year and even kind of stuck around for quite a few. I was sold, I had the cassette. I liked the more “industrial” songs like Stripped and 2 and 2.
At the time the had a follow up with Real Real Real that had a little bit of traction but from today’s perspective, they definitely qualify as one hit status here in the states.
And New Zealand. International Bright Young Thing made me buy their album. Right Here Right Now came out after that here
Real Real Real was big everywhere.
American Standard by Seven Mary Three is one of the best albums I've ever heard...Water's Edge, Cumbersome, My My, Headstrong...even the songs that didn't get airplay are very good. Rodrigo, Margaret. It's one of the few I play as loud as possible from beginning to end.
Agreed ... holds up well too.
A nice little fact, the Three Little Pigs music video was the first music video I remember ever seeing in my life. My dad put it on MTV while I was watching TV with him as a wee one sometime in the early 90s. I was probably about 4 or 5. It's simultaneously the dumbest song I've ever heard and one of the best for that reason.
Eagle Eye Cherry, who made the one hit wonder 'Save Tonight', is actually the brother of Neneh Cherry, who wrote 'Buffalo Stance', another great one hit wonder... 😉👍
Actually, he's her HALF-brother.
Between these two lists I think that this was the better one. I surely would have included all the entries here and would have found room on the first list for The Wallflowers “One Headlight” and Lisa Loeb “Stay”. Having spent my pre-teen and teenage years in the 90’s those were two big songs that I think were missed.
I was in 10th grade when “Cannonball” was released & that song was one that I would blast no matter when it came on the radio or MTV.
Vertical Horizon and their song "Everything You Want". Yes, the got some airplay with other songs off that album, but nothing was a big as that song.
I don't think Vertical Horizon really counts, since "You're A God" hit 23 on the Billboard Hot 100 and 12 on Adult Alternative, so it was, by every metric, a hit.
Completely agree about "You get what you give" as greatest one hit wonder of all time
Over 20 years later and I still love it.
I listen to ‘you get what you give’ with my students at school here in Japan.
I hear cumbersome every other day on the radio. It will never die
“In the Meantime” is well known in the U.K. but only the intro riff which was used in advertising for Vodafone for years in the 2000’s.
Now that was a great list that hit me like a nostalgia brick
In my head Dishwalla - Counting Blue Cars and Deep Blue Something - Breakfast at Tiffany's are interchangeable
DBS lead singer sounds like the Friends' theme singer
??? What
I got to be Captain Crunch for Green Jello at a show and get on stage with Bill Manspeaker, for 3 Little Pigs, it was so cool. Bill is also a nice guy he does free meet and greets after his shows, he just gets off stage and talks to whoever wants to meet him.
Belly -Feed the Tree
The Refreshments- Banditos
Catherine Wheel- Black Metallic
Fun Loving Criminals-Scooby Snacks
Sneaker Pimps - Six Underground
Weird fact in Canada the Crash Test Dummy's big hit wasn't Mmmmm, that was their big hit internationally, but in Canada their biggest hit is Superman's Song. So not only are the Crash Test Dummies in the League of One Hit Wonders Who Had More Hits At Home, but in their home their big hit is different song.
The song God Shuffled His Feet seemed pretty successful to me too.
Brother Cane - and fools shine on
Dovetail Joint - level on the inside
Dovetail Joint!!!
Got No Shame was a bigger hit for Brother Cane.
I stand corrected! Just listened to got no shame and I do remeber hearing that one on the radio
Why Campbell's soup never used the Crash Test Dummies- Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm in their marketing is thee greatest blunder in advertising history
I'm still obsessed with "Right Here, Right Now". It features heavily on my Spotify playlist of my favorite 90s tracks. It's 4 hours long lol. Maybe this song in particular is because I have such vivid memories of myself when I was 12, listening to this song. So the nostalgia is strong. But it's very memorable in its own right too.
Green Jelly should also be noted for the criminally underrated "Carnage Rules" off their album 333 which was a tie-in into the comic and video game Spider-Man and Venom: Maximum Carnage.
Loved playing that game and it was the FIRST actual song licensed for a video game
Fucking love that album
A song I loved back the in 90s but don't see mentioned very often--"Girlfriend" by Matthew Sweet.
I mostly remember the anime music video, back before anime was big in the west
I remember Girlfriend fondly. Loved the song when I was in high school.
I think Sick of Myself was the bigger hit of his.
Sick of myself was a bigger hit on the alternative charts.
TO THIS day I catch myself singing- Right Here, right now 😌
Days of the New
"Touch, Peel, Stand"
Absolutely
The Cardigans “Lovefool”
They had a 2nd hit tho.
Losing my favorite game
They also had a lot of success with their cover of crowded house's don't dream it's over
And in the uk and Australia they had a cover of the talking heads song Burning Down The House with Tom Jones
@@patricklauer4452 yes I remember that one..
I remember when I was younger and my mom showed me and my brother the video to Green Jello's "Little Pig" and I couldn't stop laughing my ass off. Especially during the Rambo part
You get what you give is the poster child of 90s. I fucking love it
This is a strong list. I’m one of those people still in the New Radicals camp. I saw the video at 3am when I was in college, and went and bought the cassette when it was in the $7.99 bin. Good stuff!!
Jesus Jones, the lost brother of Jupiter Jones.
D-did you just...
I guess ???
And there dad is mr jones
Osmosis Jones is their uncle.
Three Little Pigs is awesome and the music video is amazing.
90's claymation cheese, and that's not being insulting. XD
The Bauhau's shirt on the guitar player of Deep Blue Something is a tad mindblowing.
That song is basically a horrible 90s sitcom turned into music.
I saw Jesus Jones in concert in '9, and they were amazing! "Doubt" is a great album.
And yes, the 90's were weird, but I miss them. 😊
"You got what you give" is Summer...in audio form to me
Man the 90s had some weird hits. Primitive radio gods, butthole surfers, harvey danger, manic street preachers, beck, cake, geggy tah...God bless them
msp aren't really weird
Beck was far from a one hit wonder. Even within the 90s.
@@Hyde_Hill neither were the manics either
@@Hyde_Hill sorry i wasnt talking about necessarily one hit wonders but just strange bands/hits. Beck had multiple weird hits
@@innotech Ah in that sense yeah definitely. Made for a great time. Lots of creative and out there stuff. Born in 1980 myself so had my teen years during it. It was great. Even though a lot of mainstream crap still dominated there was a lot of good alternative stuff.
Can't forget about Plowed by Sponge. I loved that tune thx to Empire Records and listened to it all thru High School in the 90s
Molly was just about as popular
As soon as you said favorite OHW (plus I recognized Gregg Alexander on the card), I knew what it was. I actually found your channel because of your New Radicals video and rediscovered you a few months ago. Huge NR fan, still hoping for a second album, and a fan of yours too. Well done!
3:30 I remember it as the song that played during JJ venture’s funeral.
I’m British and cannot name another verve song, you’re safe from the uk 😂👍🏻
Ironic as it wasn’t even their highest charting song in the UK (The Drugs Dont Work was). Still i guess its a matter of taste
Seriously, this is my FAVORITE video/list you’ve ever come out with!!! The GREATEST!!!! Awesome job! Rock the fffff on!
What I remember most about Bitter Sweet Symphony is it being played at the end of Cruel Intentions.
Urban Hymns is a great album. “Lucky Man” is one of my favorite tracks ever.
Being a fan of the Breeders/Kim Deal and considering her participation in the Pixies and just all around musical influence on my life, it’s weird to see her lumped in with the rest of these acts who are largely remembered for just the one song featured but I guess in the general consciousness, that’s how Cannonball is remembered.
I was gonna get upset that Eve 6's Inside Out didn't make this list either, but then I checked the wiki and remembered that Here's to the Night is a song. So I started naming other songs I think of as one-hit wonders into this comment, then started looking them up. It's weird how many one-hit wonder bands had other songs, like Lit, Fastball, Extreme, and maybe The Rembrandts (though I didn't recognize any of their other songs). Still got Primitive Radio Gods, Tal Bachman, and somehow Ben Folds Five though.
Shortly after "Cumbersome" arrived to mainstream music, "My Own Prison" popped up. Both deep distinctive voices doing crossover rock. One is fondly remembered despite being a one-hit wonder. The other... well, I still am a fan of that song even if other songs lead to less fond memories involving yelling SEEEEXX!
Your love of Maybe You've Been Brainwashed Too will always make me smile. My shuffle led me to hear "Mother we just can't get enough" this morning.
i was gonna say the Cumbersome SOUNDS like it was sung by Creed, the vocalists really sound alike, at least on that track.
Oasis is my favorite band, but if the Verve had lasted longer I think they could have been more acclaimed than them or even Radiohead. Sonnet and The Drugs Don’t Work are some of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard in my life.
"Prisoner of Society" by The Living End - might be stretching the definition of a hit though - great song and great band either way!
That Deep Blue Something album, "Home," is actually legitimately outstanding! "Breakfast at Tiffany's," (a good song) is probably the third worst song on it. I'd recommend anyone interested to check out, "Halo," "Red Light," or "I Can Wait."
Also, I do in fact know all of the lyrics to, "Breakfast at Tiffany's." I know all the lyrics to every song on the album, even, "Done," which I don't actually like.
I am so happy to have found this channel!
Never heard an awful lot from this list. But I remembered being annoyed to death by some of them like New Radicals because my local radio station at the time played it 2 - 3 times in a given day. Same with Deep Blue Something, forgettable band name but can't forget that song.
It was a joke though, during a time when you can actually call radio stations to request songs to be played live, as to how to request Crash Test Dummies. Like, how do you do it without sounding awkward and not resorting to mentioning Crash Test Dummies? It was amusing for a while.
Is Fastball considered a One-Hit Wonder? I know "The Way" was their biggest hit, but I'm the only one I know that seems to remember their other lower charting songs "Fire Escape" and "Out of My Head."
It's always so weird to be reminded that You Get What You Give was released in the 90s. I still vividly remember first hearing it on a car ad, and it feels like yesterday.
