Editorial Reviews

Album Description
The title says it all, 'The Best One Hit Wonders In The World'. While most artists aim to have a string of hits, here is proof that you can achieve pop immortality with just one. Ranging from the sublime to the, quite frankly, ridiculous, this fantastic double-CD brings you no less than 44 one hit wonders from the 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s. There'll be no argument with the inclusion of, Cutting Crew '(I Just) Died In Your Arms', Deep Blue Something 'Breakfast At Tiffany's' (1996 - No.1 UK Hit), Nena '99 Red Balloons' (1984 - No.1 UK Hit), Trio 'Da, Da, Da' (I Don't Love You, You Don't Love Me, Ha, Ha, Ha) (1982 - No.2 UK Hit), Men Without Hats 'The Safety Dance' (1983 - No.6 UK Hit), The Knack 'My Sharona' (1979 - No.6 UK Hit) and many, many more. 44 tracks in all. Virgin. 2003.
