All American Blogger’s Top 25 One Hit Wonders of the 90s

This list started out as a Top 10 list, but the more I researched, the more songs I remembered from the 90s. There were some great songs out there from bands that really only had one big hit. They may have had some other minor hits, but one song really hit big.
What’s interesting, and sad really, is that in researching and compiling this list, I found the same list (not this one, a different one) printed word for word one several different websites. Plagiarism is an ugly habit folks. Write your own stuff.
Now, here are my top ten twenty-five favorites, in no particular order:
