This doesn't totally count, but this is the standout song on the album.
Etw: the ohw conversation around biz markie is also why I thought young mc wouldn't count. But, I feel like this is the one song that is mostly known.

Semisonic - Closing Time.
I always thought that song was about leaving the bar at closing with someone. It's actually about him having his first child. There's a youtube video on it. It made me cry.

Biz Markie is on the list?!?? Clearly the authors of the list have never seen Yo Gabba Gabba.

When I turned 18 I was a bartender at the local bar, the guy I worked with was a 40 year old man. He would sing this every night at closing time to shop everyone out. My favorite part of the night. “Can I get one more drink?” 🎶”You don’t have to go home but YOU CANT STAY HEREEEE”🎶

A one-hit wonder is any entity that achieves mainstream popularity and success for a very short period of time, often for only one piece of work, and becomes known among the general public solely for that momentary success. he may have done other stuff, but if you say Biz Markie I guarantee this song is the only one people know

First we should all go watch That Thing You Do. Yes! In high school, me and one of my girlfriends had the whole movie memorized. We were so cool.

Mad World- Gary Jules(the Donnie Darko version). I’m assuming that’s a one hit wonder because I’ve never heard of him outside of that song.
