I know. I just love their shit. So I'm choosing to bury my head in the sand and believe that they are not a one hit wonder.

Oh and Der Kommisar was by After The Fire :)

Eh "hits" aren't even the goal of some bands. Pink Floyd didn't make hits they made great music. Alice Cooper is technically a one hit wonder... but that hardly defines him. Charts are just for whats popular, whatever kind of chart it is.

Yes. That's more like it. I thought Major Tom was Bowie for some reason. Herp Derp. Falco had "Rock Me, Amadeus" though.

Crowded House was not a one hit wonder... they had a ton of hits .. ok maybe not a ton but a few...

Heck, this was on the same album and was pretty much as big a hit...
