Pop Question
 

Since pop seems to be the subject tonight, here is a quick question.

In the UK, only two "one hit wonders" have sold more than 1 million copies, what are they ?

Do They Know It's Christmas - Band Aid ?????

Re: Pop Question
 

Charity records are excluded - the artists involved have all had seperate hits.

Chumbawumba - Tubthumping?

Baddiel & Skinner - Three Lions?

Chesney Hawes - One And Only?

Re: Pop Question
 

Is it one million combined or for each record?

Because if it's separate, won't it have to be an old song (20yrs or more), as aren't the current No 1s are lucky to get around 300,000 sales? :shrug:

Re: Pop Question
 

Punky and BB31 - sorry, but no.

Mal - each of the records sold 1 million or more.

I think you are on the right track

Some inspired guesses:

Archies, sugar sugar
Chicory Tip, son of my father
Python lee Jackson, in a broken dream

St Winifreds School Choir - No one quite like grandma

Plues they were also backing singers with Brian and Michael on their 1978 hit Matchstalk Men and Matchstalk Cats and Dogs.

sorry, none so far.

Re: Pop Question
 

My guesses (looking at a 'one hit wonder page):

Macarena - Los Del Rio
It's Raining Men - the Weather Girls

Edit: Can I throw in Venus by Shocking Blue as well?

Teletubbies Say Eh-Oh!" - The Teletubbies

Re: Pop Question
 

okay - I can see google straining under the queries from here ;) One was in the 1970's, the other in the 1990's. The one in the 1990's sold more and is therefore the highest selling (uk) one hit wonder.
