Music fans everywhere!

Now with sooo many classics even being much loved today coming from the 80s, surly many of us can also agree, there is no decade that could possibly have produced as many one-hit wonders as the 80s. I mean, so many huuuuge hits that we all know and love, but can you name another song by a number of them? We sure struggled!

Back in the day there seemed to be so many classic songs that came about and took the charts by storm because they were just good songs, not because of who released them. Perhaps a slightly refreshing view of music or perhaps a great shame as we only got to see a flash in the pan from a lot of them.

Anywho! Fancy some good ol' fashioned music nostalgia? Take a peep at Our Top 80s One Hit Wonders!.

Dexy’s Midnight Runners “Come on Eileen”

Okay okay so right off the bat, perhaps these might be more considered at two hit wonder. Reaching both number 1 spots with their songs "Come on Eileen" (the best-selling single in the UK  in 1982) AND "Geno", these guys first formed way back in in 1978 in Birmingham. Finding their own sound seen as British New Wave pop/soul, they band released a series of albums, the third of which was not greatly received. After landing one last UK Top 20 chart success with "Because of You" in 1986, the band broke up that same year however later reformed in 2003 and are still working under the name Dexys with their last work being 'One Day I'm Going Soar' which came out in 2012.
