Fez of Mahrez Posted 1 March 2007 Share Posted 1 March 2007 Anyone else like any bands who are regarded as one-hit wonders by the great unwashed? My obvious two would be Underworld ("Oh, the ones that did Born Slippy?) and the Dandy Warhols ("Oh, the ones that did Bohemian Like You?") Also most people tend to know Concrete Schoolyard by Jurassic 5 or The Seed (2.0) by The Roots but not a lot else by them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Libertine Posted 1 March 2007 Share Posted 1 March 2007 Nirvana - Teen Spirit Foo Fighters - Learn To Fly Feeder - Buck Rogers Green Day - American Idiot/Good Riddance/Basket Case Pretty much all some of the worst songs they've done too IMO.

Libertine Posted 1 March 2007 Share Posted 1 March 2007 All very harsh. Kind of agree with American Idiot but the other's no.... Why harsh? I like most of them but it's annoying when people recognise a band for just that song when they've done much better IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

potter3 Posted 1 March 2007 Share Posted 1 March 2007 QOTSA ("No One Knows") Agreed, I've got Lullabie to Paralyze and its quality, a couple of the longer songs get broing though. Nirvana - Teen SpiritFoo Fighters - Learn To Fly Feeder - Buck Rogers Green Day - American Idiot/Good Riddance/Basket Case Pretty much all some of the worst songs they've done too IMO. I find myself dissagreeing with all of them, nobody I've ever met would ever call any of those "One hit wonders" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hairy Posted 1 March 2007 Share Posted 1 March 2007 New Radicals made a brilliant song that I still listem to today, the rest, shite. Transvision Vamp, good song rest shite, but she was hot. Stardust, wheres the follow up? Beck, Black Grape, Crazyhead, Sneaker Pimps and the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lineker's Left Foot Posted 2 March 2007 Share Posted 2 March 2007 Anyone else like any bands who are regarded as one-hit wonders by the great unwashed?

Also most people tend to know Concrete Schoolyard by Jurassic 5 or The Seed (2.0) by The Roots but not a lot else by them. Yes I know what you mean. Other artists like this include:- The Cure for either 'Friday I'm In Love' or 'Lovecats' Talking Heads 'Once In A Lifetime' Stranglers 'Golden Brown' Fine Young Cannibals 'She Drives Me Crazy' Aphex Twin 'Come To Daddy' - yes people in Metal love them, but check out his other stuff too!! Nuyorican Soul - 'Black Gold of the Sun' Tracy Chapman - 'Fast Cars' Roots Manuva - 'Witness (1 Hope)' Talk Talk - 'It's My Life' Sinead O'Connor - 'Nothing Compares To You' Dexy's Midnight Runners - 'Too Rye Aye' Curtis Mayfield - 'Move On Up' Jackie Wilson - 'I Get The Sweetest Feeling' Visage - 'Fade To Grey' To name but a few..............

Good picks there, especially Underworld (I prefer pretty much all their tracks to Born Slippy nowadays!), J5 and The Roots. A lot of people might just know Glory Box and/or Sour Times by Portishead. And Massive Attack are certainly best know for Unfinished Sympathy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
