Zaskar 3,918 Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 So, I just noticed that there are lots of artist in my library whose only one or two songs I listen to. Some of them are really one hit wonders only, but not all of them. Now, I know that sometimes many artists get one or two hits only and are usually forgotten, but sometimes their rest of the discography is amazing as well (eg: M.I.A., Lana, Carly etc.) . So, below I'll be listing some artists and songs, please let me know if I should explore their discography or not. Tell me if they are worth the time (and if yes, then what album should I try), since there are lots of great music out there, and I don't wanna waste my time. TIA Survivor- Eye of the Tiger Journey- Don't Stop Believin' a-Ha- Take On Me Selena- I Could Fall in Love/Bidi Bidi Bom Bom The Bangles- Walk Like Egyptian/ Manic Monday/ Eternal Flame One Republic- Counting Stars John Meyer- Waiting on the World to Change Hozier- Take Me to Church Elle King- Ex's and Oh's The Cranberries- Zombie PS: I'm using the term "one hit wonder" in a very loose way, so don't come at with me with "arTisT XyZ Is nOt An oNe hIT woNDer" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomsches 17,392 Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 M.i.a. and Lana are in no Way forgotten. They are well respected in the Industry. Just because someone is not on the Charts doesnt mean that they are forgotten. A lot of People actually prefer music thats Not popular on any Charts.

I never heard about M.I.A after Bad Girls and that collab with Madonna and Nicki. So i guess the GP totally forgot about her Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I wanted to say that if I were part of GP I would think that they are mostly one or two hits wonders (Paper Planes, Summertime Sadness, Videogames, Young and Beautiful). I'm not sure if I'm clear enough, but let me make this clear that I'm not trying to attack any artist Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
