One Hit Wonders met Daantjie Dinamiet - Nena se '99 Red Balloons'.
Dans One Hit Wonder, Margaux Lassalle s'interroge : peut-on vraiment qualifier Kaiser Chiefs de groupe à succès unique ? En France, leur nom reste souvent associé à "Ruby". Pourtant, la formation originaire de Leeds, d'abord connue sous le nom de Parva avant d'adopter son patronyme actuel en hommage au club sud-africain Kaizer Chiefs, a construit une carrière bien plus riche. Dès 2005, le groupe mené par Ricky Wilson frappe fort avec "Employment", porté par "I Predict a Riot", "Everyday I Love You Less and Less" et "Oh My God". Ce premier disque, aux influences new wave et punk rock, leur vaut plusieurs Brit Awards. Ils confirment en 2007 avec "Yours Truly, Angry Mob", qui contient "Ruby" mais aussi "The Angry Mob", puis enchaînent avec "Off with Their Heads", porté par "Never Miss a Beat". Toujours actifs, les Kaiser Chiefs ont poursuivi l'aventure au fil des années, jusqu'à "Kaiser Chiefs' Easy Eighth Album", paru en 2024, confirmant leur évolution vers un son plus pop et dansant.Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Want to request a song? Tell us your rating? Send us a Text Message right now! This week on 1001 Songs That Make You Want To Die, we take aim at Lips Are Movin by Megan Trainor — a song that somehow convinced the world it was quirky, empowering, and not just the same chorus shouted at us for three straight minutes.We break down how this track rode the post-All About That Bass wave, why the lyrics make absolutely no sense if you think about them for more than five seconds, and how Trainor built an entire pop empire on retro vibes and lyrical confidence that may or may not be earned.There's production chat, pop culture context, questionable messaging, and the important stuff — like whether Megan Trainor could beat one of our hosts in a fight.Was this song harmless fun, or a crime against radio listeners everywhere?Press play and let us complain properly.DUBBY DUBBY is declaring WAR on big Energy!

One Hit Wonders met Daantjie Dinamiet - Schoking Blue se 'Venus'.
Dans One Hit Wonder, Margaux Lassalle revient ce mardi sur le parcours de Fools Garden, groupe allemand formé au début des années 90 par Peter Freudenthaler et Volker Hinkel. Un nom indissociable d'un immense succès : "Lemon Tree", tube planétaire devenu un classique de la pop des années 90. Le duo débute en indépendant avec l'album "Once in a Blue Moon" en 1993, avant de connaître la consécration en 1995 avec Dish of the Day. Ce disque, porté par "Lemon Tree" mais aussi par le single Wild Days, propulse le groupe sur le devant de la scène internationale. La suite sera plus contrastée : "Go and Ask Peggy for the Principal Thing" puis "For Sale" ne rencontrent pas le même écho, malgré des titres comme "Probably" ou "Suzy". Malgré les départs de plusieurs membres, les deux fondateurs poursuivent l'aventure et continuent de sortir de nouveaux disques, dont "Who Is Jo King?", confirmant la longévité du projet au-delà de son plus grand succès. Margaux Lassalle souligne que Fools Garden reste l'exemple parfait d'un groupe à la discographie riche, mais dont toute la carrière a été éclipsée par un seul titre. Écrite par Peter Freudenthaler, "Lemon Tree" raconte l'attente mélancolique d'un homme pour la femme qu'il aime, un morceau immédiatement reconnaissable qui continue de marquer les esprits et les concerts du groupe.

One-hit wonders are not to be f#cked with! In the first episode of our "One-Hit Wonders Trilogy," we don't look down on the songs or make fun of the artists - we celebrate the sh#t out of them! One-Hit Wonders pack a nostalgic punch that resonates across generations and, despite their fleeting success, these songs have left an indelible mark on pop culture, reminding us of specific times and places in our lives. The enduring appeal of One-Hit Wonders lies in their ability to evoke emotions and memories, making them timeless musical treasures.
Want to request a song? Tell us your rating? Send us a Text Message right now! In this episode of 1001 Songs That Make You Want To Die, we take on WHERE IS MY HUSBAND by RAYE — a song that somehow manages to be chaotic, catchy, and deeply unhinged all at once. We unpack the vocal acrobatics, the theatre-kid energy, and the lyrical panic of a woman sprinting through emotional traffic with zero plan and maximum confidence. Along the way, we ask the important questions: is this genius, is this annoying, or is it both at the same time? Plus, a brutally honest breakdown of the song's backstory, production choices, cultural context, and the inevitable question that defines the show — does this track earn its place on the list, or is it getting off lightly?

This episode is about the part of success that doesn't get talked about. Not the first win. Not the breakthrough. But what happens after you're seen. Emma explores why the real challenge isn't achieving momentum - it's sustaining it without losing your instinct, creativity, or edge. Once exposure enters the room, something subtle shifts. Expression turns into management. Freedom tightens. The body starts tracking expectations instead of following impulse. She talks about the quiet pressure to replicate what worked, the fear of deviating from the formula, and how "one hit wonder" energy isn't about talent, it's about what pressure does to the system once attention is on you. This conversation looks at how success can slowly move you from creating to curating, from trusting yourself to second-guessing every move. Not because you've changed but because the environment has. It's an honest look at why spontaneity often disappears after visibility, why creativity becomes filtered, and why maintaining self-trust matters more after success than before it. This isn't about doing more. It's about staying connected to the part of you that knows even when the room gets louder. If this episode landed for you, share it. Send it to someone you thought of while listening. Post it. Talk about it. Let it travel. The more eyes and ears that find this podcast, the more conversations get started and the more people get to understand what's actually happening in their system instead of judging themselves for it. You can listen to this episode (and every episode) via unapologeticrebelpodcast.com, where you can also leave feedback, share what came up for you, or ask a question for a future episode. If you're curious about your own collapse points and want to explore an audit, DM me the word AUDIT on Instagram and I'll send you the details. And if you want to stay connected beyond the podcast, come and find me on Instagram. That's where the conversation continues.
Dans One Hit Wonder, Margaux Lassalle s'intéresse cette semaine à Black, le nom de scène de Colin Vearncombe. Si l'artiste britannique reste peu connu du grand public, sa chanson "Wonderful Life" est, elle, immédiatement reconnaissable, tant elle a marqué la fin des années 80 et accompagné de nombreuses campagnes publicitaires. Né près de Liverpool, Colin Vearncombe débute au début des années 80, mais c'est en 1987 qu'il connaît la consécration avec l'album *Wonderful Life*. Porté par le titre éponyme, devenu un classique, le disque révèle aussi d'autres morceaux marquants comme "Everything's Coming Up Roses", dans une veine pop new wave élégante et mélancolique. Il enchaîne ensuite avec *Comedy* en 1988, plus mature et introspectif, puis un album éponyme en 1991, plus sombre et personnel, avant de poursuivre une carrière discrète mais régulière jusqu'à *Blind Faith* en 2015, aux sonorités plus acoustiques. Souvent réduit à un seul tube, Black a pourtant construit une œuvre riche et sensible. Derrière "Wonderful Life", au ton volontairement sarcastique, se cache une histoire personnelle difficile : la chanson a été écrite à une période où l'artiste traversait de lourdes épreuves. Une trajectoire marquée par la discrétion, saluée par le public fidèle jusqu'à sa disparition en 2016. Hébergé par Audiomeans.

He-Man & los one-hit wonder del universo. Con Juanito Pereira & Erasmo W. Neumann.
Cette semaine, focus sur Frankie Goes To Hollywood, groupe britannique formé à Liverpool au début des années 80 autour du chanteur Holly Johnson. Derrière un nom qui évoque un artiste solo se cache un collectif à l'image provocante et assumée, mêlant synth-pop, new wave et rock, avec une forte dimension politique et sexuelle. Leur premier album "Welcome to the Pleasuredome" sorti en 1984 connaît un succès colossal, porté par le tube "Relax", mais aussi par la ballade "The Power of Love" et le titre engagé "Two Tribes", produit par Trevor Horn, figure majeure de la pop des années 80. Deux ans plus tard, le groupe publie "Liverpool", un deuxième disque plus rock qui ne rencontre pas le même accueil commercial. La séparation intervient peu après, ouvrant la voie à des carrières solo, notamment celle de Holly Johnson, marqué par le succès "Americanos" en 1989, avant son retrait de la scène musicale au début des années 90. Mais malgré une discographie courte, Frankie Goes To Hollywood ne se résume pas à un seul tube. Leur impact culturel et musical sur la pop des années 80 reste considérable, et "Relax", censuré à sa sortie avant de devenir un phénomène mondial, demeure l'un des titres les plus emblématiques de la décennie.

In this episode, Dion, Irv, and Jon dive into a nostalgic debate over the greatest one-hit wonders of the 1990s. After setting the rules for what counts as a true “one-hit wonder,” they review a lineup of memorable tracks—spanning pop, rock, hip-hop, dance, and alternative music—that briefly dominated the charts and then disappeared.The hosts share personal memories connected to each song, discuss whether some artists deserve more credit, and examine why certain tracks captured the decade so perfectly. The conversation blends humor, music history, and friendly disagreement as the panel ranks their favorites using their signature “Good Point” scoring system.Follow us on X & Instagram @ThatsaGoodPoin1 and check out That's A Good Point on Facebook.

Now You Are God's People. The author writes to people for whom God's merciful selection is new, and delicious (“if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good,” v. 3). And so he exhorts them to remember that theirs is not an individual project, but that their identity is collective. In partnership with Jesus, the “living stone,” they themselves become living stones, built together into a place of worship – not a building but a people. “Once you were not a people” – there was no community, no solidarity, no companionship for life's journey. But God's mercy includes the gift of community. Thanks be to God. To tell us your thoughts on this sermon, click through to the web posting and leave us a comment.

God Is Love. The story goes: the elderly apostle John is asked to preach to the gathered crowd. He creaks to his feet and says, “Little children, love one another.” And he creaks back into his chair. “Brother John, don't you want to say more?” asks the host. “What else is there?” old John replies.

Last week's episode was our 200th 'proper' one. Yes, the counting got weird at some point so we're not entirely sure but the current numbering convention has Dr No Legs as our 200th episode. So we had a little relax and did a chilled hostful episode like boardgames on the last day of term.______An exclusive extended, ad-free version of this episode with almost 15 minutes of bonus extra chat about all manner of things can be found over at our Patreon!Extended episodes drop over there usually 3-7 days early and with zero ads so if you enjoy Mystery on the Rocks then please consider heading over there to support us, where there is already a huge backlog of exclusive extras such as extended episodes, bonus episodes, minisodes, outtakes, cocktail recipes and more!Hosted by Masud Milas, Chris Stokes, and Sooz Kempner Mystery on the Rocks is a high concept comedy and true crime/unexplained phenomena podcast set in a fictional mystery-solving bar with real cocktails!.

Ricki kicked things off with her cooked sleep schedule before we dove into Pauline Hanson’s sandwich press wagyu for Barnaby Joyce, plus the whispers he might be sliding her way politically. Glossys ran wild with Bieber peeing in the Palm Springs bushes, Kasey Musgraves’ accidental trip to a Sydney gay sauna, Hilary Duff dodging Leo questions and J Lo raking in three million to sing at a billionaire wedding in India. We absolutely lost it over the grandma who proudly froze what she thought were Christmas tree ice cubes that turned out to be, well, festive backdoor surprises. Jeans caused chaos again because apparently no one knows how to size them properly. Then we wrapped the whole thing up with a cracking round of Joel Jivin, artist doco edition, which went completely off the rails in the best way.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ho! Hey! Now that we narrowed the list of 2010s one-hit wonders to 32 on the last episode (and we Feel It Still), we're ready to Shut Up and Dance so we can finish the tournament before Friday. No song is Safe and Sound as some of the match-ups are just Too Close to call. Joel, Kent, and Zack don't meant to be Rude, but we can't take things Despacito, and sometimes that makes us get a little Tongue Tied. Please be our Cheerleader as we reveal the stench of Glee, start the occasional Fight (Song), and expose which Baconsale host secretly loves a Stolen Dance to stomp clap music. What Does the Fox Say? It says to grab your Pumped Up Kicks and press play. If you doo-doo doo-doo doo-doo want to download the advanced bracket, visit Baconsale.com.
Oppa Gangnam Style! On this episode of Baconsale, we're putting one-hit wonders that were Classic around 7 Years ago on a bracket. We'll have many Little Talks to decide which tracks are Bulletproof and which ones don't deserve a Replay. We may leave some millennials Brokenhearted as we Say Something negative about a song they love, but Don't You Worry Child, we don't mean to make Waves. You just need to Let It Go. Joel, Kent, and Zack are going to Sail through this first round of 64 songs. However, we won't finish the tournament Tonight Tonight. It is Written in the Stars that we'll pick a winner next time (Like a G6). So say Geronimo, enjoy the Sweater Weather, and press play!

My guest is Steven Pressfield, author of The War of Art and expert in how to overcome the inner force of "resistance"—the self-sabotaging tendency to procrastinate on your life's most important work that keeps you from realizing your professional and creative potential. Steven shares actionable tools for defeating inner resistance that work. His approach is concrete, not based on slogans or inspirational messages. As the author of numerous best-selling books and screenplays, Steven's routines for cultivating discipline and focus, including his physical training regimen (he is incredibly mentally and physically vigorous at 82), are applicable by anyone. He gives you effective practical strategies for how to structure your day, overcome procrastination and self-doubt and do your best, most meaningful work.

I SEE A FAMOUS BABY IN THE FUTURE – THE STAGE NAME DICAPRIO ALMOST HAD – Shatner in the hospital – AND A GREAT LIST OF ONE HIT WONDERS Rihanna and A$AP Rocky welcomed their third baby . . . and FIRST girl. It's hard to imagine Leonardo DiCaprio with a different name. But it almost happened. A lot of celebrities were born with "ethnic"-sounding names, but changed them as they pursued fame . . . either because they were told to, or they themselves thought it would help. We discussed more celeb name changes. We haven't had a good supergroup in a while. But that's about to change, thanks to Howl Owl Howl. Vince Neil Reveals Multiple StrokesMötley Crüe frontman Vince Neil has opened up about his recent health scare.

Neil says the cause was a blood clot in his leg that traveled to his brain.Next James Bond Casting PlansDirector Denis Villeneuve says casting for the next James Bond begins in 2026 once he wraps Dune: Part Three.
