National One-Hit Wonder Day 2024

Reason to celebrate: September 25, 2024 is National One-Hit Wonder Day.

One-Hit Wonder Day

It’s what we have all been awaiting, each day to celebrate every artist that has conspired to provide us one massively effective song….and also the grand total of nothing since. One-Hit Wonder Day was established by music journalist Steve Rosen in 1990 to pay for tribute to individuals who may have had their 5 minutes (or fewer) of fame and subsequently disappeared, departing us merely a appealing (hopefully!) tune to keep in mind them by.From bizarre, middle-aged Spaniards Los Del Rio doing the ‘Macarena’, to beanie-hatted Daniel Powter singing about his ‘Bad Day’, via Lou Bega’s Mambo #5, their email list of 1-hit miracles is really a lengthy and varied one, so search your old record collection and find out the number of of those unfortunate souls are hiding there.Then come along in sitting back, hearing their tunes and wondering what is these artists do now (aside from investing their massive royalty cheque).
