There have been artists who made one song that was great and then just quit. Why do you think they quit with just the one? Can you think of any? I will start it off with "Afternoon Delight" which was a 1976 hit song by the Starland Vocal Band.

Yeah i was wrong Black has 5 albums that's a good thing grin


Laurie it seems like you missed with "A- Ha" : Albums: Hunting High and Low, Headlines and Deadlines: The Hits of A-Ha, Analogue, and more...
Songs: Here I Stand and Face the Rain, Living a Boy's Adventure Tale, The Sun Always Shines on T.V., and more

They were very popular in Europe!

Actually A-Ha was a one hit wonder in USA, but it did have a great career in UK, also The village people is not a one hit wonder.

They have the Safety Dance, Huge hit, but Pop Goes the World was not a hit in USA, it was bigger in Canada, So actually was one hit wonder.
