It's going to be a long offseason. Not even March yet.
 
That makes this thread borderline ban-worthy.

And the best 80's one hit wonder was by far A Flock of Seagulls (I Ran.) The hair, 'nuff said.

Good call. A clear miss on my part. I expect numerous others
 
Too many one hit wonders to pick just one. Kind of hard to call any of them the "Best." A couple of more that could be added to the list...

Cars......[SIZE=-1]Gary Numan
Safety Dance.....Men Without Hats

Hey i forgot whoever sang "8675309", but that dude needs to be on this list. I was looking to vote for him.
 
Here is a complete listing...

Nevermind, the pages with the songs listed is no longer available. Stupid VH1

Soft Cell - Tainted Love
Kajagoogoo - Too Shy (not one of my favorites, but certainly qualifies as 'one hit wonder')
