What about “Joy and Pain,” you ask? That’s the head-scratcher: “Joy and Pain,” reworking the Maze featuring Frankie Beverly classic, stalled out at #58 on the #Billboard #Hot100 in 1989. It did better on the R&B (#11), #9 Dance (#9) & Rap (#5) charts, though. #OneHitWondered #MusicSky

The platinum-selling ‘It Takes Two’ LP also gave us “Get on the Dance Floor.” The single hit #1 on Billboard’s dance chart & #11 on the R&B chart. That mix of rap, funk samples & dance beats kept clubs bumpin’, but somehow never crossed over onto the #Hot100. #OneHitWondered #MusicSky

For Ini Kamoze’s “Here Comes the Hotstepper,” Queens producer Salaam Remi also added the drums and bass from Taana Gardner’s 1981 club classic “Heartbeat.” That became the Heartical Mix, the version that took off on the US #Billboard #Hot100. #IniKamoze #TaanaGardner #OneHitWondered #MusicSky

“Yesterday,” the first single off Debelah Morgan’s 2nd album, charted on the US #Billboard #Hot100 in 1998… topping out at #56 in 1998. It also reached #28 on Billboard's R&B chart. #DebelahMorgan #OneHitWondered #MusicSky

"Baby, Come to Me", a love ballad from #PattiAustin's 1981 album #EveryHomeShouldHaveOne, was her duet with #JamesIngram. It was written by #RodTemperton (formerly of #Heatwave). The song was released as a single in April 1982, initially peaking at No. 73 on the US Billboard #Hot100.

Follow-ups “What to Do with Laurie” and “One Boy Too Late” did chart on the US #Hot100 but fell short of the #Top40. United Artists released his album For the Love of Mike in 1965. Later singles for Cameo and Sidewalk Records failed to chart. #MikeClifford #OneHitWondered #MusicSky

Gene Vincent & Eddie Cochran’s fiancée, songwriter Sharon Sheeley, survived the deadly taxi crash… Sharon might be most famous for writing “Poor Little Fool,” the Ricky Nelson classic that became the very first #1 hit of the #Billboard #Hot100 era the week of August 4, 1958 #OneHitWondered #MusicSky

"Woo-Hoo" entered Billboard's #Hot100 in October 1959, eventually reaching #16 on the #Top40... The Rock-A-Teens appeared on American Bandstand & toured with Dick Clark's Caravan of Stars, sharing bills with some of rock 'n' roll's biggest names. #OneHitWondered

Trapt's story shows how different Billboard's rock charts could be from their #Hot100 chart… Throughout the ‘00s, they had multiple major rock-radio hits, including three #1 singles on Mainstream Rock. But only “Headstrong” crossed over onto the Hot 100's #Top40. #Trapt #OneHitWondered

Trapt’s “Echo” followed in 2004, reaching #10 on Modern Rock Tracks & #13 on Mainstream Rock. The single was trapped at #25 on Billboard’s Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart, which is an extension/overflow to their #Hot100 chart. #Trapt #Billboard #OneHitWondered #MusicSky

Trapt proved they weren't finished with rock radio… Their follow-up, “Still Frame,” reached #1 on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock chart & #3 on Modern Rock Tracks, although it stalled out at #69 on the US #Billboard #Hot100. #Trapt #OneHitWondered #MusicSky

Headstrong” became a monster hit for Trapt in 2003, reaching #1 on Billboard's Alternative, Mainstream Rock & Modern Rock charts. It also crossed over to pop radio, peaking at #16 on the US #Billboard #Hot100, becoming Trapt's only US #Top40 hit. #Trapt #Billboard #OneHitWondered #MusicSky

In a way it’s too bad Kendrick Lamar didn’t reissue an album this week (um…bonus tracks on GNX?) cuz then all 4 of the titans of the #Hot100 would be dominating the #Billboard200 simultaneously. The Beatles, Drake, Taylor + Kendrick are, to date, the only 4 acts to lock down the #Hot100 Top 5. [2/2]

Lawrence Reynolds continued recording after his breakthrough, releasing singles including “It Was Love,” “Doing His Thing,” & “Hey Mr. Preacher” in 1970, followed by “Love Can Be a Drag (Sometimes)” in 1972. None brought him back to the #Billboard #Hot100. #LawrenceReynolds #OneHitWondered #MusicSky

In America, Interphon chose “I Can’t Stop” as The Honeycombs’ follow-up single… Its pounding beat and urgent vocals carried on the excitement of “Have I the Right?” and reached #48 in early 1965. It was their only other single to chart on the US #Billboard #Hot100. #OneHitWondered #MusicSky

"Swingtown" is a 1977 hit song by the #SteveMillerBand. It was their third and final single release from their #BookOfDreams album, and became the second biggest hit from the album. "Swingtown" reached No. 17 on the U.S. #Hot100 and spent two weeks at No. 13 on the Cashbox Hot 100.

(Anticipating your question…) Nope, they are not. The Poppy Family did have a 2nd US #Billboard #Top40 hit! Their follow-up, "That's Where I Went Wrong," topped out at #29 on the US #Billboard #Hot100… well within the #Top40. #ThePoppyFamily #TerryJacks #OneHitWondered #MusicSky

Gordon MacRae is a perfect example of why US #OneHitWonder honors sometimes need an asterisk... Yeah, he was a star before #Billboard created the #Hot100… but, technically, still a one-hit wonder during the #Hot100 era. #GordonMacRae #OneHitWondered

A one-hit wonder? Well, sort of… Gordon MacRae was already a major entertainment figure long before the #Billboard #Hot100 era. The dude worked in radio, records, Broadway/film, and was one of the most recognizable traditional-pop singers of the late 1940s & ’50s. #GordonMacRae #OneHitWondered

“Washington Square” by The Village Stompers climbed to #2 on the US #Billboard #Hot100 for the week ending November 23, 1963… kept from #1 by Dale & Grace’s “I’m Leaving It Up to You.” #TheVillageStompers #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
