Gross right? But seriously… thinking about how many people are probably caught up in this nightmare, how many one hit wonders or bands you may have heard in the past and thought “gee, how did they not make it, they sounded so good?”… how many of those bands or singers didn’t drink the kool-aid and were subsequently kicked out of the party because they didn’t want to be vile human beings?
Hilariously, I’d toss Nickelback in there because of the widespread hate even though they’re not like, terrible… but for one hit wonders, I’d throw out maybe a band like Fastball, or Jimmy’s Chicken Shack as (hopefully) contenders for morally upright artists. Just a thought :) Honorable mention, Queensryche
The one hit wonder joke may have been people who walked away.

You Get What You Give"
One, two! One, two, three, ow!
Wake up, kids, we got the dreamers' disease Age fourteen, they got you down on your knees So polite, we're busy still saying please Frienemies, who, when you're down, ain't your friend Every night we smash a Mercedes-Benz First we run, and then we laugh till we cry
But when the night is falling You cannot find the light (Light) You feel your dreams are dying, hold tight
You've got the music in you Don't let go, you've got the music in you One dance left, this world is gonna pull through Don't give up, you've got a reason to live Can't forget, we only get what we give
I'm comin' home, baby You're tops Give it to me now!
Four A.M., we ran a miracle mile We're flat broke, but hey, we do it in style The bad rich, God's flying in for your trial
But when the night is falling You cannot find a friend (Friend) You feel your tree is breaking, just bend
You've got the music in you Don't let go, you've got the music in you One dance left, this world is gonna pull through Don't give up, you've got a reason to live Can't forget, we only get what we give
This whole damn world could fall apart You'll be okay, follow your heart You're in harm's way, I'm right behind Now set your mark
You've got the music in you Don't let go, you've got the music in you One dance left, this world is gonna pull through Don't give up, you've got a reason to live Can't forget, we only get what we give Don't let go, I feel the music in you You, you, you
Fly high, high What's real can't die You only get what you give You're gonna get what you give Don't give up, just don't be afraid to live
Health insurance, rip-off flying FDA, big bankers buying Fake computer crashes dining Cloning while they're multiplying Fashion shoots with Beck and Hanson Courtney Love and Marilyn Manson You're all fakes, run to your mansions Come around, we'll kick your ass in
Don't let go, one dance left Don't give up, can't forget Don't let go
One of my favorites. They were spouting the truth way back when.
Looks like this world pulled through.
Such a good song
Awe, I love this song. It's on my YouTube Playlist.
The Spirit brought exactly this song to mind as I was reading this thread. If you only get one hit; make impactful! So much truth in this song. I’ll add the song HOOK by Blues Traveler. That’s one everyone knows but doesn’t know all the lyrics and what he is saying. Oh but Frens, if you read Hook you’ll know.
