ONE HIT WONDERS Continued 1977, 1978, 1979






ONE HIT WONDERS Continued 1977, 1978, 1979

This concludes the 20 sets of One Hit Wonders. A set for each year from 1960 to 1979. For these One Hit Wonders I have used the Tunecaster Music Encyclopedia and Chart Archive to identify songs which are the most popular by an artist.  These One Hit Wonders are included if the artist had exactly one song that made the pop or rock top 20. No artist can be considered a One Hit Wonder who made the top 20 twice. This strict definition may create some strange results where superstar side projects with temporary or transient names may be technical One Hit Wonders.
