You may not know all of their names, but you definitely know their songs-“La Bamba,” “Who Let the Dogs Out,” “Rico Suave,” and so many more. They are the one-hit-wonders-the stars who savored every second of their fifteen minutes of fame, but were unfortunately unable to come up with follow-up hits. Sometimes they’ll have success in other fields altogether, and you’ve surely seen many pop up on reality shows over the years, but a few of them sadly died before their time. Let’s take a look at some of the one-hit wonders you may not know are dead.

Calling Falco a "One Hit Wonder" is close to blasphemy. He was *extremely* successful in the german speaking countries for many years. Since his lyrics were german, it was extremely unusual for him to have a hit in the US. Calling him a one hit wonder because it was only 1 is very silly.

Shout out from South Africa. Former mobile DJ here. I think you forget that RU-vid is international and that posts are not restricted to one country...unless you indicate such. One hit wonders??!!! Milli Vanilli? Falco? Dead or Alive? The Divinyls? Well, they all certainly had more than one hit in South Africa. "Lover Come Back to Me" by Dead or Alive, for example, was an even bigger hit in South Africa than "You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)". Et cetera et cetera!!

It's news to us here in Australia to have Chrissie Amphlett and the Divinyls listed in the USA as one hit wonders. Chrissie and the Divinyls were a very important part of the music industry in Australia for close on 40 years, up there with other Aussie Groups as Midnight Oil, AC/DC and INXS. Chrissie was a diverse talent, I remember seeing her on stage in Sydney in 1998 playing the part of Judy Garland in the original Aussie stage production of "The Boy from Oz" with Tod Mckendry, a good decade before Hugh Jackson did it on Broadway. Her role only took about 20 minutes of the whole show but she left the audience stunned with her performance and her voice was out of this world. In the early 80s she was every Aussie School boys sexual fanatasy. Her death was shock to all of Australia and she sorely missed. But she and the Divinlys were never a one hit wonder in the Land of Oz.
