one hit wonders

Ok is No more No more the song that goes I'm moving I'm leaving I'm walking out the door. I take your lying baby no I can't take no more. It's time for me to make a move out on my own............

I love that song. It is so hard to find. Any idea where I can hear it.

Some of the other ones you mentioned were good ones too.
 
Yeah thats the song, Haven't seen it anywhere except in my crates. it must be on a freestyle compilation somewhere. Try one of the "Freestyle's greatest beats" I seem to remember seeing it on one of those.
 
i guess what constitutes a 1 hit wonder is always up for debate... on VH1's one hit wonders they had Mary Jane Girls on the list for "In My House", when "Candyman", "Boys" & especially "All Nite Long" were popular...... 🙂

I think they go by record sales on VH1, can't really do that here. You kinda gotta go by what was played on the radio & in the clubs. So far I think everything mentioned except Wild Mary "No one knows" was a hit. But I still love that song.

I love that one. I've heard the remake by Paris By Air, but Wild Mary version is hot.

Actually Tiana had another good song called "come to me"
Voyce sang "here we are" that got alot of play in NYC
nice & wild came out with a song called "Obsession" it was more house than freestyle but I liked it.

I'd consider:
Tiana "First True Love"
Voyce "Within My Heart"
Nice & Wild "Diamond Girl"

along with

Sinitta "Feels Like The First Time"
Connie "Funky Little Beat"

all one hit wonders....

I know all of the above had other hits tho.... 🙂

and what about:

Rainy Davis "Sweetheart"
Genuine Parts "Did It Feel Like Love"
Regina "Baby Love"
Voice In Fashion "Only In The Nite"
Tia "Boy Toy"
Touch "Without You"
Double Destiny "Prove It"
Olga "Play Another Song For Me"
Paul Parker "One Look"
Arlene "We Can Work It Out"
Stephanie "Get Away"
Xena "On The Upside"
Jay Novelle "If This Aint Love"
Simon "Let Me Be The One"
Jaide "Answer My Cry"
Bettina "Destiny"
Uptown "I'm Losing You"
Secret Ties "Dancing In My Sleep"
Eileen Flores "Touch Me With Your Heart"
Taste T Lips "Hypnotize"
Ollie & Jerry "Theres No Stoppin Us"
Carolyn Townes "99½"
Isis "Let Me Love You"
Spirit Matter "Crimes Of Passion"
Face "Forever Yours" :dancingb
 
Again I'd have to disagree with you on Tiana & Voyce. I'll give you Nice & wild cuz "Obsession" was no where near a hit. "Here we are" - Voyce was a hit in NYC anyway. Tiana has 2 other hits that already were mentioned here including "Come to me". CHUCK can you settle this one???


P.S. Crimes Of Passion took me way back, Thanx for the memory
 
OMG!
This is crazy! As soon as I read the title to this thread Liason's "Heart & Soul" jumped into my head, & to my surprise it was first on this list - LOL - (Too wierd!)

Alot of the songs mentioned I haven't even heard of. Chuck, were those songs hits?

just because a artist had other songs than their one hit doesnt make the other songs they had a hit. Remember it has to be a hit not just a song they had after their one hit song.

Liason's-Heart and Soul is one of my favorite freestyle songs.
What happened to Liason??Does anybody know?
 
I Must Agree With The Definition Of One Hit Wonder Being A Song That Received Significant Airplay(really Kinda Crossing Into The Mainstream Because What May Have Been A Hit In New York Or Chicago May Not Have Really Been One Say, In San Antonio Or El Paso!!), So If We Go Back And Really Look At Freestyle Hitting The Mainstream And Considering One-hit-wonders Here We Goeven Though They May Have Had Another Release Or Two):


Linear-sending All My Love
Arthur Baker Ft. Nikeeta-1992 Varsion Of "i.o.u"
Stacy Q.-two Of Hearts
Tolga-leave It All Behind
Dino-summer Girls
Damien Bautista-what Will I Do?
Joei Mae-promise Me Your Heart
Noel-silent Morning
Jaya-if You Leave Me Now
Raiana Page-youre My Only Man
Nice & Wild-diamond Girl
Jocelyn Enriquez-i've Been Thinking About You
Collage-i'll Be Loving You

Of Course, I'm Speaking In Terms Of Hitting The Charts And/or Going Mainstream.....there's More Than On This List But Those Were The Ones That First Came To My Mind..other Than That, As A Freestyle Fan What Ever Happened To Rochelle?("praying For An Angel")?,joei Mae?, Lisette Melendez?? There's A Lot Of Great Freestyle Artists I Wonder About!!!!!!

Ok I think I'm done with this thread. Imagine NOEL being a one hit wonder. Raina Page's worst song being mentioned as her only hit. Tolga has had a few, so has Jocelyn Enriquez, Stacy Q & Arthur Baker???? Not many "Freestyle" songs have gone "mainstream" so you can't use that as a guide. Radio play & club dj rotation has to be a part of this.

BTW Raina Paige's "Rescue Me" is a freestyle classic hear it if you haven't. Noel's "Like A Child" & "The Question" fall into that category also
