Pour tous ceux qui se posent la question de savoir où vont tous les hits qu'on n'entend plus jamais, je leur dis : ben, au paradis des tubes oubliés. Car oui, ça s'oublie, des tubes. Tellement que je retrouve très souvent dans des listes de One Hit Wonders, ceux qui n'ont connu qu'un seul hit, des gens qui n'ont rien à y faire.Allez au hasard, début des années 80, on a tous été babas du même groupe anglais qui nous faisait le coup du slow façon La Boum mais à la puissance dix, version New Wave … Et aujourd'hui, un tas de gars qui devraient se renseigner s'ils n'ont pas vécu l'époque, disent qu'ils n'ont fait qu'un seul hit et puis ont disparu, après ce premier succès. Déjà, pour le groupe The Korgis, ce n'était pas leur premier succès en Grande-Bretagne. Et non. Cela faisait des années que le duo moteur, voix, guitariste et clavier, du groupe existait. Depuis la fin des années 60, pour tout vous dire. Le groupe s'appelle alors Stackridge, un de leurs albums produit par George Martin, le 5ème Beatles, a même connu un joli succès en Grande-Bretagne, en 1973.Mais voilà, séparation en 1976, deux années passent, et revoici notre duo qui recrute deux autres musiciens pour relancer la machine, cette fois sous le nom de Korgis. Et là, bingo ! Nouveau hit avec ce titre que tous les British des 70's connaissent … If I Had You… C'est plutôt pas mal, non ?Si la chanson n'arrive pas jusque dans la partie francophone de la Belgique, et la France, probablement trop occupée à écouter ce que Paris nous envoie, l'arrivée en force de la New Wave avec Orchestral Manoeuvres et Gary Numan change complètement le son des Korgis sur l'album suivant, qui submerge d'émotion tous ceux qui ont une âme romantique…Il est question un temps que les Korgis fassent la première partie de la tournée de Peter Gabriel, cette année-là, il faut dire qu'ils utilisent sur leurs chansons ses synthés dont son précieux Fairlight, et que son batteur joue aussi souvent avec eux.En tout cas, avec les Buggles, Ph.D, New Musik, M, Jona Lewie, les Korgis font partie de cette vague d'artistes britanniques actifs depuis longtemps à surfer sur le son de la New Wave. Et s'il est vrai que le single suivant n'a pas connu le même succès que l'immortel Everybody's Got To Learn, le 45 Tours doit encore se trouver dans pas mal de maisons en France et en Belgique francophone. On en a perdu le souvenir, probablement parce qu'il y avait trop de choses géniales dans le Top à ce moment. Un embouteillage de trouvailles à la hauteur de la créativité foisonnante des artistes d'une époque où on créait la musique qu'on avait dans la tête. Et non pas en se préoccupant de répondre aux attentes d'un grand public imaginaire, sorti de données statistiques ou de playlistes radios qui n'existaient pas.

One Hit Wonders met Daantjie Dinamiet - Mi-Sex se 'Computer Games'.

Cette semaine Margaux Lassalle nous ramène dans les années 60 pour redécouvrir The Monkees et leur inoubliable tube "I'm a Believer". Formé à Los Angeles en 1965 pour les besoins d'une série télévisée, ce quatuor est initialement pensé comme la réponse américaine aux Beatles. Composé à l'origine d'acteurs ayant quelques bases musicales, le groupe dépasse très vite le simple cadre de l'écran. Après un premier succès avec "Last Train to Clarksville", ils explosent mondialement en 1967 avec l'album "More of the Monkees" et l'incontournable "I'm a Believer". D'abord critiqués car ils ne posaient leurs voix que sur des pistes enregistrées par des musiciens de studio, ils finissent par imposer leur volonté de jouer eux-mêmes dès l'album "Headquarters", gagnant ainsi une véritable crédibilité artistique. Si l'arrêt de la série à la fin de la décennie marque la séparation du groupe, l'histoire ne s'arrête pas là. Les années 80 leur offrent un regain de popularité inattendu, donnant lieu à des tournées anniversaires et de nouveaux projets musicaux jusqu'en 2016 avec l'album "Good Times!". Endeuillé par le décès de trois de ses fondateurs entre 2012 et 2021, le groupe ne compte aujourd'hui plus que Micky Dolenz. Finalement, l'étiquette de "One Hit Wonder" est plutôt réductrice : s'ils sont aujourd'hui souvent associés au seul "I'm a Believer" (un titre qui connaîtra d'ailleurs une seconde jeunesse en 2001 dans le film "Shrek" avec une reprise de Weezer), les Monkees ont en réalité enchaîné de nombreux succès et marqué l'histoire de la pop des années 60.

One Hit Wonders met Daantjie Dinamiet - PhD se 'I Won't Let You Down'.

Cette semaine dans la chronique "One Hit Wonder" du #LeDriveRTL2, Margaux Lassalle s'intéresse au groupe américain Sixpence None The Richer et à leur tube d'une grande tendresse, "Kiss Me". Formé au Texas dans les années 90, ce groupe de rock chrétien, dont le nom original s'inspire d'un ouvrage de l'écrivain C. S. Lewis, se cherche d'abord avec deux premiers albums sortis en 1994 et 1995. Mais la consécration mondiale arrive en 1997 avec la sortie de leur troisième album éponyme. Porté par l'incontournable "Kiss Me" et par une reprise réussie du titre "There She Goes" de The La's, le disque offre au groupe une reconnaissance massive et lui vaut même une nomination aux Grammy Awards pour le meilleur album de rock gospel. La suite de leur carrière est malheureusement freinée par des problèmes de label, retardant la sortie de leur album "Divine Discontent" à 2002. Épuisé, le groupe finit par se séparer en 2004 pour se consacrer à des projets solos, avant de se reformer trois ans plus tard. S'ils restent perçus par le grand public comme un "One Hit Wonder", les membres de Sixpence None The Richer n'ont jamais totalement abandonné la musique et ont continué à sortir quelques projets discrets. Preuve de leur longévité, le groupe existe toujours aujourd'hui et part en tournée européenne cet automne, avec un passage prévu le 7 octobre à la Marbrerie de Paris. Hébergé par Audiomeans.

He speaks honestly about fatherhood, his relationship with his father, overcoming criticism and “one hit wonder” conversations, and embracing his legacy as an artist who helped shape Atlanta music culture.

The 2016 Giro d'Italia was the first edition covered end to end, on the ground, by The Cycling Podcast, and what a race it proved to be. A thrilling last week saw Steven Kruijswijk fall at the last hurdle, almost literally, and Vincenzo Nibali mount an extraordinary comeback. But neither of these stories could rival stage 15 to Alpe di Siusi and more specifically the victory of rank outsider Alexander Foliforov for sheer shock value. Foliforov disappeared almost as quickly as he burst onto the scene, retiring two years after his Giro stage win. Since then he has become a meme, a sort of post-ironic legend, but above all an enigma: what mysterious force propelled him to victory that day, and where has he vanished to over the last ten years? Exactly a decade on from the Russian's greatest day, Daniel Friebe tracked him down and invited Foliforov to relive and explain one of the strangest days and results in recent Giro history. One-Hit Wonder was written and produced by Daniel Friebe.

In this episode we discuss our Top 5 90's one hit wonders with Kerri Spader and Lukas Brown 

Welcome to a another journey through the golden era of R&B and hip-hop culture. In this episode of I Only Listen to 90s Music, Darryl, Stacey, and Scott celebrate the 40th anniversary of Janet Jackson's revolutionary "Control" album. The crew breaks down how Janet asserted her independence from the Jackson family shadow to deliver seven number-one singles and set a new standard for empowerment in the industry. The conversation also delves into the complex history of the Jackson family dynamics, featuring a breakdown of the viral reaction to Diana Ross performing for Katherine Jackson and the bizarre, alleged shooting incident involving Tina Turner and Randy Jackson. Beyond the headlines, the hosts explore the "Dirty Mac Tour" and curate their dream 90s R&B concert lineup, debating how artists like Donnell Jones, Tyrese, and Jon B would transform a modern stage. They also tackle the most influential hip-hop features of all time, debating the chemistry behind Mariah Carey's iconic remix with ODB and the unexpected success of the DMX and Sisqo collaboration. From the surprising origins of Groove Theory's hit song "Tell Me" to the hilarious story of a dad going rogue at a Stephanie Mills concert, this episode offers a perfect blend of high-level music analysis and genuine nostalgia.   0:00 90s Music, Sorority Drama, and Michael Jackson Movie Reactions 5:43 Diana Ross's Performance for Katherine Jackson Sparks Mixed Reactions 12:48 Tina Turner Allegedly Shoots Randy Jackson During Domestic Dispute 16:09 Celebrity Drama, Rumors, and 80s Music Industry Scandals 23:46 Impact of Key Member Departures on Music Groups 33:50 Nostalgia, One-Hit Wonders, and Chaka Khan's Comeback 41:51 Throwing draws at a Stephanie Mills Concert 48:11 Imagining a 90s R&B and Rap Concert Lineup 57:13 Planning a Nostalgic R&B Tour Featuring Underrated Artists 1:07:09 Unexpected Origins of Groove Theory's Hit Song Tell Me 1:22:51 Debating The Top Hip Hop Features Of All Time List 1:34:34 Debating Billboard's Top 50 Female Rappers List 1:42:24 Revisiting The Classics: 40 years of Janet Jackson's Control Album and Its Cultural Impact BRAND New Voicemail 314-649-3113 Join the I Only Listen to 90s Music Facebook Group http://bit.ly/3k0UEDe      Follow I Only Listen to 90s Music on IG https://bit.ly/3sbCphv       Follow SOLC Network online Instagram: https://bit.ly/39VL542                          Twitter: https://bit.ly/39aL395                          Facebook: https://bit.ly/3sQn7je                To Listen to the podcast Podbean https://bit.ly/3t7SDJH                      YouTube http://bit.ly/3ouZqJU                      Spotify http://spoti.fi/3pwZZnJ                     Apple http://apple.co/39rwjD1  IHeartRadio http://ihr.fm/2L0A2y

Many Disc Jockeys see one-hit wonders as "time capsules" of their youth because when replayed they represent a specific moment in music history.

This is chapter six of a five-part series on the greatest alt-rock one-hit wonders of the last 50 years…yes, chapter six of five…after going through a ton of data—radio charts, Spotify plays, and YouTube views, mostly—I thought I'd compiled a really solid list…and it was—except for a few things that need some attention: the errata… This means songs that should have been on the original top 50 list but were for whatever reason left out…those omissions need to be addressed—and we will…I've identified five such songs, so if you've been following along and were wondering why a certain favourite one-hit wonder was left out, maybe you'll find some satisfaction… We'll get to those later…first, though, I want to talk about some songs that did not fit the criteria of making international radio charts and fell under the minimum threshold of Spotify plays and YouTube views…at the same time, though, it feels like the stories of these songs should be told…you know what I mean?...they are great but not the biggest… This is a bonus episode on the 50 biggest all-time alt-rock one-hit wonders Learn more about your ad choices.

From 1953 to 1973, the CIA carried out a massive operation, the ripples of which are still felt today and the extent of which is, frankly, unthinkable. Coming as a reaction to the Nuremberg trials at the end of World War 2, MK Ultra contained over 100 subprojects which took in drug smuggling and drug testing plus unethical and illegal human experimentation, both on military personnel and civilians.These are the stories of Frank Olson, of Harold Blauer and of Lana Ponting plus many more, of the hypocrisy of a psychiatrist so terrified of the Nazis he adopted their methods to prevent them from happening again, the lack of scruples in certain CIA personnel as they tortured American citizens and of the shameful lengths they would go to in order to cover it up.This is the story of how evil, despite what you may want to hear, isn't always at a safe distance...______If you're new to Mystery on the Rocks, hosted by award-winning comedians Masud Milas, Chris Stokes, and Sooz Kempner, the podcast is a high concept comedy and true crime/unexplained phenomena podcast set in a fictional mystery-solving bar with real cocktails!

Let's talk one-hit-wonders, starting with the 50th anniversary of the single-hitting chart toppers of 1976. Then, let's fast forward to “the day the boat sank” — 1984. What makes a one-hit wonder a true flash in the pan? What was common to the wonders of 1976, then let's look at 1984. Same dynamic at play? What's consistent?

Bobby and Eddie take a trip through some of the biggest one-hit wonders of the ‘90s and 2000s and dig into what happened after the songs that made them famous. From Vanilla Ice and Chumbawamba to Lou Bega, Eagle-Eye Cherry, Blind Melon, Daniel Powter and more, they break down the stories behind the hits, the careers that followed, and why some artists never quite escaped that one song. Along the way, Bobby shares his own thoughts on playing music on the radio, whether being a one-hit wonder is actually better than grinding it out with a long career and puts Eddie to the test trying to guess the final band on the list. Plus, a random Hanson VHS makes an appearance. Watch The BobbyCast on Netflix! Follow on Instagram: @TheBobbyCast Follow on TikTok: @TheBobbyCastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Something occurred to me the other day: did the person who came up with the term “one-hit wonder” ever come up with anything else that good? I looked it up… the Oxford English Dictionary traces its origin to about 1914, when baseball was starting to become America's pastime… it was given to pitchers who held the opposing team to just one hit. We do know that when Ramon Monzant was pitching for the San Francisco Giants in 1956, he was given that nickname…to be called a “one-hit wonder” was very high praise. But around the same time, “one-hit wonder” migrated over to the music world and acquired a pejorative ring…in musical terms, a one-hit wonder was an artist who could manage one and only one big song…everything else they might have done was a flop, a stiff, a failure, and was ignored. Billboard magazine began to incorporate the phenomenon of the one-hit wonder when it came to its charts…their definition was an artist who released just one song to reach the top 40, the realm of “hits” on the singles charts. But that's pretty narrow and really only considers songs and artists for that one chart…what about all the other non-top 40 artists who achieved fame for one and just one song? The more I went down this rabbit hole, the more intrigued I became…was there a way to look at the history of alternative music to determine the biggest one-hit wonders of all time? There just might be…and after going through a lot of numbers and statistics, I may have cracked it…But I'm going to let you be the judge…This is part one of the 50 biggest all-time alt-rock one-hit wonders of the last 50 years.
