It happens all the time. You turn on the radio or throw your iPod on shuffle and hear a song you love but haven’t heard in a while. After singing from the top of your lungs and embarrassing yourself in public you undoubtably ask yourself one question:

We don’t know why or how it happens, but sometimes an artist strikes gold and can never reclaim that magic again. Sadly, when that happens they get labeled as a “One Hit Wonder,” doomed for the rest of eternity as segment pieces on VH1‘s Where Are They Now and Behind The Music.
The 1980′s was filled with one hit wonders. Many of them fill the majority of Top 10 lists and were even some of the best songs of the decade. And if you’re like us, they always put a huge, cheesy smile on your face.
