Marcy Playground is the epitome of one hit wonder. "sex and candy" was the only good song i have ever heard from them

"One more suicide" was another solid song.
----------------------

I would dare to say that the supergroup "Temple of the Dog" was a one-hit wonder with "Hunger Strike". One of the best 90s songs, maybe Eddie Vedder and Chris Cornell should have continued working together.

Calexico also comes to mind with "The Ballad of Cable Hogue". I recently listened to a couple of their albums and that is indeed the one song that is memorable.

In The Meantime by spacehog was bitchin, but sex and candy dreams isnt marcy playground's only hit by any means, theyre actually a great band, listen to crazy katy nicotine lady, sherry fraser, or ancient walls of flowers to name a few. i was surprised.

Better get off after this one...recall the Candy Man visiting the site canteen every Friday lunchtime...
The Smashing Pumpkins -1979.

Uhm, you nailed the definition of a one-hit-wonder with the Connells and then posted the opposite of it with the Pumpkins... that's a tad confusing.
