recent one hit wonder bands

umm......Toadies-Possom kingdom
Actually a good band though.

any one know any recent ones?

The Hives- Hate to say I told you so

What about "Main Offender"? I'd say 2 hit wonder...

those 'swing, swing' rejected americans

recent? that song came out when i was in the 7th grade (1994)

i miss my Toadies cd, where the hell did that go???

During the atrocious teen-pop craze of 1999, I always thought "You Get What You Give" by New Radicals was a relative breath of fresh air, speaking in strictly pop-single terms. You've gotta admit it's catchy, without being too gimmicky. Only hit this one-man-band ever had, and mastermind Gregg Alexander has been more interested in producing than performing since cutting that album.

EMO... Yeah, all of it.

white stripes. hopefully

that Russian mock-lesbian duo. Tatu? I think that's it.

THE VINES...had one song that really was very terrible, they get a rolling stone cover....and now....where the fuck are they? and more importantly, who the fuck cares?

oh i really hope that fountains of wayne "stacy's mom" song is a one hit wonder, i don't know if it will even be a hit though, haha. god that's terrible.

the rolling stones

You obviously don't remember "Sink To the Bottom", "Radiation Vibe", or "Troubled Times".

Oh, and Fountains of Wayne are a fantastic band who have never written a bad song in their lives.

Ah yes, I think I remember them... had a minor hit in '68, I think it was called "She's a Rainbow." Wonder what happened to those guys...

Poppa Roach seem to have gone the way of the Dodo.

That be cold.. I think you mean the Strokes.

No winkie forgotten. I love Fountains of Wayne. Everyone else would, as well, if they had a heart beating in their chest -- if they went out and picked up any of their three records.

Critic's darlings, I guess.
