Cheryl JVun Hit Vonders
Sorry for the delay; I thought it best to go into hiding while Noel Gallagher visited Australia. Never-the-less, I am back to bring you another exciting issue of Rheumatism. Leaving obscure music for just a moment, the other end of the scale is a one-hit wonder (note: Mark Latham). Here are some of my favourite (and not-so-favourite) one hit wonders...
Echo Beach
Artist: Martha & The Muffins!!!!!!!!
Other Hits: Not really, but they came back as M M with another minor hit "Black Station/White Station".
I love this song, it's very catchy and the saxophone is cool.
Video: Far Away In Time...
Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes)
Artist: Edison Lighthouse
Other Hits: Edison Lighthouse was really just Tony Burrows, who was also in The Pipkins and White Plains.
I wish I were in the 70's just for this song. (And to get away from Gretel Killeen
Video: Nobody Knows Like Me
Cars
Artist: Gary Numan
Other Hits: He wasn't really a one hit wonder, it's just that everyone knows him for this song. He had other hits in the UK with The Tubeway Army, and with his album "Telekon", "The Pleasure Principle" and "Dance" after which it all went a little Kim Beazley-ish for him.
Be warned: This song is as catchy as Bird Flu in Hong Kong
Video: Here In My Car
Tainted Love
Artist: Soft Cell
Other Hits: They had another 5 Top5 singles in the UK, but nowhere else.
It's like S&M for scenesters. At least they got to it first before Manson destroyed it.

Groove Is In The Heart
Artist: Deee-Lite
Other Hits: A few, nothing big though.
No Comment
Video: Your groove I do deeply dig
End Post Stop. What one hit wonders have I missed? There are so many, what are your favorites?
