Some good ones here, White Town!

Anyone fancy linking me a little Yes by McAlmont and Butler? Maybe a little not-one-hitty but who cares, it's ace.

How about Black - Wonderful Life?

or Tamsin Archer - Satellites
or The Only Ones - Another Girl, Another Planet

and as for Kung Fu Fighting - technically a two hit wonder, as I think it made no 1 note once but twice...

In the UK yes, they were only big in Oz though.

[i]Driver's Seat[/i], by Sniff 'n' The Tears. Only got into the Top 40 here because of a pressing plant issue delayed release after their TOTP appearance. Bigger hit worldwide, though.

Credit to the Nation - Call it What You Want

Not strictly a one hit wonder, should have been far more successful.

Actually they were a one hit wonder, but with "Teenage Sensation", not "Call it What You Want", which I am listening to now, and it is awesome.

Can't believe it was twenty ago I was bouncing to that at the Cambridge Junction. (ETA: also supporting Therapy?)
Good times.

Teenage Sensation, how did I forget that track?

Will be in the loft tomorrow digging the album out, happy memories, finishing college and heading to uni...

IIRC I saw them at the Manchester Academy, vague, hazy memories...

Happy memories of Gunshot 25 Gun Salute as well, though I guess Mind of a Razor or Colour Code were their one hit wonder contenders....

Its immaterial, if they had another hit I don't know about it.
