I dug ALL these songs!! One-hit, or not: THEY WERE AWESOME!! Thanks for sharing! ❤

[Slammy]

I'm not sure if Simple Minds qualifies as a one hit wonder, Alive and Kicking and Sanctify Yourself were both top 20 songs in the US.

[larryserna]

dude if i was a one hit wonder and people where still humming my song 40 years later, i would call that a win

[bkjhhug]

1980's rock still better than what passes for music today

[brentvance]

Goodbye to you by Scandal was remembered just as well as The Warrior

[qzgspqy]

Goodbye To You was an amazing song by Scandal and should be considered a hit.

[winglessviper]

Tommy Tutones is the reason we now have caller ID.

[joeavrgjoeporteous]

The 80s had the BEST OF THE BEST for music... Hands up to agree! Best decade EVER!!!

[ms.annthrope]

Soft Cell's "Tainted Love" was so popular with these dark clubs. Smoke machines, strobe lights, smell of poppers and amyl nitrate in the air. Too many drinks. Restrooms with signs that said "only one person at a i can't remember much. Great times.

[saiberunato]

One hit wonder or not, if you're a kid/teen during the 80's, you'll never forget their songs. They're ingrained into your soul.

[danieltyler]

Simple minds: Alive and kicking, kicked ass on the charts and radio play.

[flyinbrianz]

The 80's were pivotal in my life. It was the first time I really paid attention to music.Then MTV came out and music changed forever. I miss those days.

[danmccarthy]

Why does NOBODY who makes 'one hit wonders' lists understand the meaning of the word "ONE"???!

[hfxmusicman]

Goodbye To You, The Warrior, Hands Tied, and Beat Of A Heart all hits from Scandal. And all songs I still love. IMO you left out the best one hit wonder of the 80's..Mickey by Toni Basil.

[brentgardner]

I saw Quarterflash back in the summer of 1983 when they opened for Linda Ronstadt. What a show!! And they are far from a one-hit wonder.

[brianhitzone]

Simple Minds alive & kicking was a huge hit. Also Cutting Crew had "I've been in love before"

[kdcbsjm]

I'm so so glad and happy I grew up late 70s through the80s...

[IsothermeMusic]

Simple Minds was NOT a one-hit wonder. They had 8 albums under their belts before DYFAM and a number of charting singles in Europe. They also had a number of US charting singles after DYFAM. If your channel is to be taken seriously, you’ll post a retraction and correction.

[edoug]

From Billboard, "Cryin'" was a bigger hit for Vixen than "Edge of a Broken Heart"

[jamesswanson]

This should be re titled,
a bunch of great bands that had at least one awesome song but don’t forget about the rest…
