Eye of the Tiger was their biggest hit, but Survivor also had Burning Heart (Rocky 4), The Moment of Truth (Karate Kid), Burning Heart, the Search is Over, High on You, etc. The band had only one #1 song, but 5 made the top 10. They weren't quite a One-Hit Wonder.
A-HA, not a one hit wonder. However the song everyone remembers them most is Take on Me. Rick Astley, also not a one hit wonder, but he is most remembered for Never Gonna Give You Up. But for those interested, A-Ha and Rick have tons of great music to listen too. Rick Astley also just put a new album recently. Check 'em out. 🎵🎵🎶🎶🎵🎵
I have never heard of Rick Astley being referred to as a one hit wonder. He had two #1 hits in the US ("Never Gonna Give You Up" and "Together Forever") as well as three other top 10 hits ("It Would Take A Strong Strong Man", "She Wants To Dance With Me", and "Cry For Help"). And Survivor had a #1 hit with "Eye Of The Tiger", but "Burning Heart" went to #2, "The Search Is Over" went to #4, and both "High On You" and "Is This Love" were also top ten hits. I hate when videos feature "one hit wonders" but don't know what the hell that actually means. Just because you only remember one hit doesn't meant the other multiple hits cease to exist.
The search is over was my wedding song. The makers of this challenge didn't even do a basic Wikipedia check. Lazy and not finishing the vid. Thumbs down.
Survivor came to my town and played our county fair. I happen to be out for a run and they started playing eye of the tiger. You better believe my pace picked up and I started air boxing. Still one of my top 10 moments
Am I the only one that instantly thought of Under Pressure by Queen instead of Ice Ice Baby? I know Queen isn’t a one hit wonder, but Vanilla definitely stole that opening sound.
Okay, Survivor had a dozen hits in the 1980s including "Burning Heart" (US number 2), "The Search Is Over" (US number 4), "High on You" (US number 8), "Is This Love" (US number 9), and "I Can't Hold Back" (US number 13).
Some, if not most, of the artists featured here aren't one hit wonders. But maybe because they have that really one great, massive hit song that all of their other songs weren't noticed as much
His work is genius level. There's a video of him presiding over an educational-type show/performance with, I believe, a young audience that's simply jawdropping. So talented!
Wait, Rick Astley is no one hit wonder. Besides "Never Gonna Give You Up", there was "Together Forever","It Would Take a Strong Strong Man","She Wants to Dance with Me" and "Hold Me in Your Arms" and "Cry for Help". They probably heard them and thought it was someone else.
I hope more people get to know Bobby McFerrin more, in a deeper way. I think many people only know "Don't Worry Be Happy" but he is a very special musician. He is a very talented jazz vocalist plus songwriter and his videos are fascinating. He uses many different parts of his body to create music. Imagine beatboxing, but taken to a higher level. He also demonstrates how to easily get an audience of strangers to use the pentatonic scale, "Ave Maria" being the piece he used as an example. He is a treasure.
Of love to know the definition of a one hit wonder they’re using because many of these aren’t one hit wonders. Right out if the gate, Rick Astley was not a one hit wonder. He had at least three too 40 hits.
I absolutely adore these videos! They are wonderful. However, Rick Astley and Survivor were not one hit wonders. Die-hard A-ha fans will remind you of The Living Daylights and The Sun Always Shines On TV. Sorry. I'm a massive 80's nerd!
@@marydavis5234na then majority of top people are one hit wonders and that misleading cause one hit wonders means 1 hit when that not true when people like survivor have multiple hits
Charlie Dore's "Pilot of the air waves" nobody ever talks about this song but I think it's cool and we used to call the radio stations dj to play our request, since waaaaay back then no internet/ you tube

Rick Astley a one hit wonder? "Together Forever" was also a Billboard Hot 100 number 1 song. "It Would Take a Strong Strong Man", "She Wants to Dance with Me" and "Cry for Help" were Top 10 hits.
Rick Astley had 5 top ten hits. Never Gonna Give You Up and Together Forever both hit #1. Cry For Help hit #7. She Wants to Dance with Me hit #6. And It Would Take a Strong, Strong Man hit #10. He had another really underrated top 40 hit in the 90's, Hopelessly. It hit #28, but it's such a great song and was able to get to #4 in the adult contemporary charts.
9:39 Sorry; that riff is from "Under Pressure" by Queen and David Bowie (1982). Vanilla Ice sampled it for his 1990 song "Ice Ice Baby", and published it without giving Queen or Bowie any credit.
But neither Queen nor Bowie would even be close to considered a "one hit wonder", so while sampled from Under Pressure, the correct answer is Vanilla Ice.
Rick Astley WAS NOT a one hit wonder. He had "4" top 10 hits. Survivor was not a one hit wonder group. They had "5" tip 10 hits. Vanilla ice had 2 top 10 hits. I have played all their hits on the radio.
A little disappointed because I saw the Heaven's Fire story on IG and was hoping that was actually one for Wally & Betty. It did remind me that I forgot to come back and watch this the other day though. Song battles are always fun to watch!
Technically... Rick Astley was a two-hit wonder: Never Gonna Give You Up and Together Forever. Both made it to #1.
Came here to post this as well. Thanks, Kevin. :)
A ha had more than 1 hit too. Vanilla ice had 2 hits.
@@trevorkearley4623 Go Ninja, Go Ninja, Go! :)
Rick also had She Wants to Dance with me. What kind of casual music fan are you to think that Survivor only had one hit???
@@davidhogansrevenge4604 ...
True: High on You, The Search is Over, Burning Heart, I Can't Hold Back... They were a virtual 80's powerhouse!

i was going to say the same x) good one :)
Survivor is definitely NOT a one-hit wonder.
Exactly.
SURVIVOR, A-HA and Rick Ashley aren't One Hit Wonders. They have a whole career.
A-HA, not a one hit wonder. However the song everyone remembers them most is Take on Me. Rick Astley, also not a one hit wonder, but he is most remembered for Never Gonna Give You Up.

Idk why but I find Betty and Wally’s friendship very entertaining ❤😂😂😂😂
Oh yes 😂
Oh, you're not alone on that point lol. Freakin hilarious!! 😆😆😆
That's exactly what I came here to say... So, we're practically related! 😂😂
Play that funky music -mercy me 🤣🤣🤣
Bruh. Tina Turner was with Ike Turner. Whitney Houston was with Bobby Brown. 😅
Plain White T’s are also not a one hit wonder either although Hey There Delilah is there signature song!
Definitely not a one-hit wonder. "1, 2, 3, 4" and "Rhythm Of Love" were also pretty big hits for them.
@@christianhardtofind6349 i was about to come write this. how dare they. the. disrespect. lol. jk
Hate I really don’t love you is my favorite it was the first song I heard from them and just prefer that over hey there Delilah

Their producer messed up.
That's why I don't appreciate putting A-ha on those lists.
Survivor had several hits. Burning Heart, The Search Is Over, High On You, Moment of Truth, so on.
I Can't Hold Back...
They're like a 10 hit wonder
We need more of Wally and Betty😂
Wally and Betty are hysterical!
Can't believe Bekah lost!
A-Ha is a two hit wonder. They also had The Sun Always Shines on TV, which went to no. 20 in the US. But they actually had 8 no. 1 hits in the UK.
Of course, in Norway they had a lot of hits, and some of them went outside our borders as well, but I guess did not cross the big pond
Survivor came to my town and played our county fair. I happen to be out for a run and they started playing eye of the tiger. You better believe my pace picked up and I started air boxing. Still one of my top 10 moments
Bobby McFerrin has 11 grammies, including a lifetime achievement award, plain white tees have 3 platinum singles. How are they one hit wonders?
Must have been US one hit wonders, as I know Rick Astley and A-ha had more than that!
A-ha technically wasn’t a one hit wonder, they had quite a few hits
i can say with confidence that, that face of Bekah (7:14) is exactly like Larry the Cucumber
You can‘t be serious! A-ha had many more hits, too!!! (I love „Hunting high and low“!)
And what about their James Bond-song Living daylights? They have a huge catalogue of songs. Definitely not OHW!
Their version of "Cryin' in the Rain" is also so, so good.
“Get pumped up fur nothing” lol
I never thought I’d hear Betty mention Death Cab, but I’m glad I did!
Can't wait the song battles aways full me with joy!
We love to hear that! Thanks for watching!
Several of these artist were not 1 hit wonders. They had multiple hits
Am I the only one that instantly thought of Under Pressure by Queen instead of Ice Ice Baby? I know Queen isn’t a one hit wonder, but Vanilla definitely stole that opening sound.
true and Freddie sued him hard and won 8-)
also, David Bowie sang along with Queen for Under Pressure
Cry for help is an amazing song by Rick Astley

Yes, and not any of them were No. 1. Survivor is one hit wonder.
@@kelvingunawan1099 You do realize that "hit" doesn't mean "#1 hits only," right?
I think it's a bit unfair to call Plain White T's a one hit wonder. They had several great songs.
Yeeeeeeeeees
They had more than 1 hit
@@abrahamesparza01 I guess it depends on what you consider a hit.
@94ccf they had 3 songs hit top 40 on Billboards Top 100 soooo. Not a 1 hit wonder
Betty wins for the bass fish comment. That was hilarious.
Rick Astly had MULTIPLE hits. Ay least 6 or 7
Damn, I was lost once they left the 80s. Graveyard Truckers is a great name for a band! Fun episode.
The bit where he hits the very high note - its "in a day or two".
Hey now Austin, don’t you be callin out us drama kids! 🤣 Besides, we’re getting pumped up to show tunes!
My cast mates and I were vibing to Take On Me in a Whataburger at like 11pm last weekend, just to bring that drama thing full circle 🤣
I LOVE THESE BATTLES!
Give a shoutout to the producer. What a voice she has. I love these song battle.
Survivor is NOT a one hit wonder! Still love watching this episode though. Keep them coming!
11:18 that reaction from Bekah is priceless.
Survivor only has one song (thus one hit) which was able to reach no. 1 on Billboard. They are one hit wonder.
Some, if not most, of the artists featured here aren't one hit wonders. But maybe because they have that really one great, massive hit song that all of their other songs weren't noticed as much
Bobby Mcferrin is a wonderful artist. Look up his version of the wizard of oz. It is amazing.
His work is genius level. There's a video of him presiding over an educational-type show/performance with, I believe, a young audience that's simply jawdropping. So talented!
I think he got the audience to do "Ave Maria".
Bobby McFerrin is really unique and a treasure.
Wait, Rick Astley is no one hit wonder. Besides "Never Gonna Give You Up", there was "Together Forever","It Would Take a Strong Strong Man","She Wants to Dance with Me" and "Hold Me in Your Arms" and "Cry for Help". They probably heard them and thought it was someone else.
So when do you pick a random TH-cam fan to do one of these? I want to try and win!
Survivor had many hits. Their Vital Signs album was great.
Many hits? A song has to reach no. 1 on Billboard to be categorized as "hit". Survivor only has 1 no. 1 song, Eye of The Tiger.
I hope more people get to know Bobby McFerrin more, in a deeper way. I think many people only know "Don't Worry Be Happy" but he is a very special musician. He is a very talented jazz vocalist
plus songwriter and his videos are fascinating. He uses many different parts of his body to create music. Imagine beatboxing, but taken to a higher level.

What, no "Chesney Hawkes - I Am The One And Only" ??? best one hit wonder ever 😮😮😮😮
I haven’t been Rickrolled in ages 😂😂😂

For billboard to consider you not a one hit wonder you have to have 10 or more songs at number one on all music chart’s worldwide.

No the background of Under Pressure doesn't have the sand-like sound
Survivor had so many hits. Definitely not a one-hit wonder! Immediately disqualified this video.
I love all of these already
I would totally listen to or be in a band called Graveyard Truckers.

I wouldn't consider Survivor's Eye of The Tiger a one hit wonder, they also hat Moment of Truty from the first Karate Kid movie soundtrack .
Plain White Ts also had “Our Time Now” so nit quite a one hit wonder
Also Rhythm of Love and 1,2,3,4

Love Betty rocking the Buc-ee's shirt!!!!

Rick Astley had at least one more hit. "Cry for Help." Real good song.
Rick Astley, Plain White Ts, and Survivor had more than 1 hit
I was waiting for "It's Raining Men" by the Weathergirls. The name of the group and their one hit match so perfectly.
