There have been so many over the years. Nick Gilders Hot Child in the City comes to mind. Not sure how far up the charts it got, but I thought it was catchy

I would say Soft Cell's Tainted Love. I think that was their only hit.

Agree with Tainted Love/Soft Cell.  When I hear "one-hit wonder," that's the song I think of.

867-5309 would be right up there too (Tommy Tutone by the way).

Go Bruins!

I like A-ha's Take on me too. The video is a classic. What ever happened to B-Movie's Nowhere Girl?

re: whats the greatest 1 hit wonder ever
if this is not just limited to the 80's, then i would have to say "kung fu fighting" by carl douglas as the greatest one hit wonder
if it is the 80's then it has to be "just a friend" by biz markie hands down
