Facebook: Link here (3/14) Hi all - We're going to cancel our March 24 event, and will find another date as soon as we can. Stay healthy and connected out there and we'll hope to see you soon! This month, we're celebrating the "one-hit wonders" - musical artists who reached the pinnacle of their popularity with one song. These are songs that have probably become synonymous with these artists for many of us, even if we are familiar with and enjoy their other songs. I was trying to figure out if "one-hit wonder" would be a kind of derogatory term for these artists, and then I read a Consequence of Sound article that I think summed it up pretty well: "There’s no shame in having only one hit. After all, these one-hit wonders have something that 99.9% of the acts out there don’t have and never will. A hit." Submit your ideas for songs in the thread on Facebook, or below, or via email, by the end of the day on March 13! We're not following any strict "only one song on the Billboard Top 40" rules here, but we'll try to dig deep to find some songs that maybe we haven't thought about in a while. We'll also try to avoid songs we've had on a list in the past year. |
