    The two I really like for 90s 1 hit wonders are:

    Chesney Hawkes - The One and Only (1991)
    Cleopatra - Comin' Atcha (1998)

    So many.
    Favourite: No Rain - Blind Melon

    Others:
    *Sex and Candy- Marcy Playground
    * Hunger Strike - Temple of the dog (I think it's their only big hit?)
    *Closing Time -Semisonic
    *Lump- Presidents of the USA
    *Low - Cracker
    *Inside Out -Eve

    I could go on....:love: Some of them might of had a few other hits, I don't think so though.

    Melty Love by Shazna
    (which was kind of a one hit wonder in late 90's Japan. Shazna did go on to be successful, but this song was the next big thing. Even people who didn't listen to Vkei knew this song.)

    https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jVvMEMl9FRM

    This song is what introduced me to the wonder that is old school Visual Kei. The band Shazna in general will always have a special place in my heart.
    also the vocalist was my first bandman obsession. Damn he was adorable.

    Oh yes, love "Hunger Strike". "Closing Time" was meant to close out their set as they left. It was never intended to be a hit. LOL. Other than Blind Melon, these were/are ones that I love hearing on the radio.

    This was most annoying of the 90's. :wink:

    This song reminds me of a crush that I had back in 10th grade. I wanted to sing this and change the words for a guy I liked. :lol:

    4 Non Blondes - What's Up?

    I know that Linda Perry has had numerous other hits as a songwriter, but as a singer that's the only one I know.

    I feel as though every single one I would state has been said between a span of five people

    Sixpence None The Richer was my first album by CD. lol.

    LaBouche and other r&b songs like it were played inside Taco Bell. Every time I hear early 90's r&b, I think of Taco Bell. :grin:

    ---------- Post added 13th May 2015 at 01:03 AM ----------

    Also, Chloe picked some great songs, but Oasis and Offspring had other hit songs. Offspring had "Stay Together(for the kids)" and a couple others. They even have a new song out now on the radio(name escapes me).

    Oasis had "D'You Know What I Mean", "Champagne Supernova", "Live Forever", and "Don't Look Back in Anger". The only thing I really hated about Oasis is that they claimed they would be more popular than the Beatles and were far too arrogant. The music is solid though.
