"Mambo No. 5" was in 1998, right? I think some of those people have a chance at getting another hit (I keep hearing his "You're Not The One" on radio. Now I think it's a safe bet that Sisqo will never have another hit!

How many Number ones do you have to have to no longer be a one hit wonder?

Daniel Beddingfield has had at least 2 number ones in the UK and a string of other top 10's. Guess that means he aint a one hit wonder?

Great choices! However, Jessica Simpson had a hit with "I Wanna Love You Forever" and Blaque had a hit with "808." Although not popular on radio, Eiffel 65 had a club hit with "Move Your Body."

This may be a little pre-mature, but you could probably add Maroon 5 'Harder to Breathe" to that list. I predict that's the last we will hear from them.

Prior to "Drops of Jupiter", Train had a hit with "Meet Virginia" - a song I really liked, perhaps more than its follow-up. I am not certain if they have another hit in them, though...

Jennifer Paige's "Crush" was a great choice! I love that song - even bought the CD single - but I have never cared enough to even see if she is still recording.

Did you guys say "Uptown Baby (Deja Vu)" by Peter Gunz and the other dude (can't remember his name)?

I'm ashamed to admit this,but I actually bought the Lou Bega CD.It was awful.There was NOTHING as catchy and fun as "Mambo No.5".I eventually sold it.

Mandy Moore ("I Wanna Be With You"), Craig David ("7 Days")and Jessica Simpson ("I Wanna Love You Forever" "Irresistible") both had bigger hits and the ones mentioned.

Also, I think Dido's "White Flag" is going to be a hit. Not sure yet but it is getting a good amount of radio play and the fact that her album is still top ten while Sting's isn't says something. "White Flag" is #39 this week and I only see it climbing. Two hit wonder!

Other than that, right on. Some of that list is sad. Wish Sunshine Anderson would have had another hit!

I know LeAnn Rimes had more hits than just "How Do I Live". I'm not even a fan but what about "Can't Fight the Moonlight (The Dance Remix)" and "Blue"? I just checked and she has had a quite a few Top 40 hits including "Big Deal" (never heard of it) and "I Need You" (have heard of it).

And the only reason I'm pointing these things out is cause I can't think of any myself! nana

lol When Katie Coric said she loved that song and started singing it on camera, I thought it had reached the masses. Maybe I was wrong.

Sad! He isn't even a one-hit wonder of the last five years (I think TGRES and "The One" made a dent in the charts but hardly hits).
