Of course Artem Anisimov Olympics Jersey , any musician would want a long and lasting career in the music industry. This is, after all, a very profitable and very fulfilling occupation, and it can open doors to a number of opportunities beyond music. But there are times when this isn't meant to be. A number of artists have tried to penetrate the music business and have partially succeeded. But what happens when their initial attempt succeeds, yet their succeeding efforts fail? They become the sad entities we know as one-hit wonders.
The definition of a one-hit wonder can be somewhat loose Nikita Zaitsev Olympics Jersey , although it is acknowledged that anyone with just one hit of a song is considered as such. However, not all one-hit wonders can be defined in this category. For instance, strictly speaking, Jimi Hendrix is a one-hot wonder since he only managed to get one hit in his wide range of released. Yet it is undeniable that his entire body of work is also well-known, although not necessarily big hits. But there are artists who cannot achieve that. Here are some of the more famous one-hit wonders Nikita Nesterov Olympics Jersey , and the music and lyrics that gave them their one shot at success.
"Macarena," by Los del Rio
What could be a bigger one-hit wonder than "Macarena," that infectious Latin dance song that conquered not just American but the whole world? At one point, Billboard even recognized it as the fifth song in their All Time Top 100 list, and it probably remains in that list until now.

Of course Dmitry Orlov Olympics Jersey , no one listens (or dances) to the "Macarena" because of its lyrics, but it does make one wonder how something with incomprehensible lyrics (at least in most parts of the world, where Spanish isn't spoken) top the charts around the world.
"Take On Me," by a-ha
"Take On Me" was popular during the 1908s, and it even reached the top one spot of the Billboard charts. Its music video is even considered as innovative during the time of its release. The lyrics of the song (sample lyrics: "So needless to say I'm odds and ends But that's me stumbling away Slowly learning that life is OK") weren't horrible Andrei Markov Olympics Jersey , just simply typical of songs created during that time. Yet a-ha never managed to follow their initial success, relegating "Take On Me" in a one-hit wonder status.
"Kung Fu Fighting,' by Carl Douglas
Another infectious song with funny lyrics (sample: "They were funky China men from funky Chinatown They were chopping them up and they were chopping them down It's an ancient Chineese art and everybody knew their part From a feint into a slip, and kicking from the hip'), "Kung Fu Fighting" remains to be familiar until today. In fact Alexey Marchenko Olympics Jersey , thanks to its catchy pop hooks and lyrics, 'Kung Fu Fighting" has been used in movies such as Epic Movie, Rush Hour 3, and Kung Fu Panda, among a score of 90s movies.Sports lovers never miss a chance to miss their favorite match.
