Watching as UK music fan I’m always surprised that bands like Travis and Franz Ferdinand are considered one hit wonders in the US as they’re really successful and well respected still to this day in the UK with good albums and big crowds

@toocarcrazy Год назад

It's because they aren't . Half of these were not one-hit-wonders.

@SoulShines4U Год назад

The music market is simply too over saturated in the US. A British or European singer, band or group not only needs to be *really* talented to make any firm and lasting impression in the States but marketing and touring also play a huge role. Take British singer Robbie Williams for example. I know he had a lot of hits in the UK and Europe and was incredibly popular in the late 90s and early 00s. However in the US and Canada he wasn't too well known for the simple fact that Williams didn't take the time to tour or market himself to North American audiences. Williams has stated that this was a very conscious decision on his behalf as he was content to be a hit in his own home country (UK) and in Europe and chose to focus his time and energy promoting himself there. The same can also be said for Kylie Minogue who was also a huge hit in the UK, Europe and Australia but only had two hit songs in North America, one in 1987 (Locomotion) and one in 2001 (Can't Get You Out of My Head). There are a ton of other British and European artists, bands and groups with similar experiences. It doesn't mean that these artists and bands aren't great in their own right, it's just incredibly hard to break into and then stay relevant in the American music scene when the competition from homegrown American talent is so fierce.

Bowling For Soup also hit the main stream pop charts in the US with Girl All The Bad Guys Want, Almost and High School Never Ends. They are a 4 hit wonder. Finger Eleven also hit the main stream pop charts with Quicksand, Above, Falling On, I'll keep Your Memory Vague, Living In A Dream and Whatever Doesn't Kill Me. Hoobastank also hit the mainstream charts with Crawling In The Dark, Running Away, Disappear, If I Were You and So Close So Far. Plain White T's did hit the mainstream pop charts with Hate, Our Time Now, 1 2 3 4 and Rhythm of Love.
