The 57 best one-hit wonders of all time

• A one-hit wonder is a singer/group that has only experienced real mainstream success with one hit song.
• Often, people will only remember the name of the song, and not the singer/group behind it.
• We've rounded up the best one-hit wonders of the past 60 years, including classics like "Macarena" and "Mambo No. 5."
  

Even though an artist may be a one-hit wonder, they still might have contributed one of the most famous songs of all time. Take Tommy Tutone, for example. You might not know the band, but you can definitely recite the number "867-5309" — Jenny's phone number.

In the last six decades, many one-hit wonders have blessed our ears (or not so much) — we've rounded up the top 57 in the US of the past 60 years (and while some may have found moderate success across the pond, they practically disappeared stateside).

Take a trip down memory lane to revisit these classic jams.

"Rockin Robin" by Bobby Day (1958)

You might know "Rockin' Robin" best as a kid's song that has an accompanying hand game, or as the 1972 version sung by the Jackson 5.

But the original version was recorded by Bobby Day in 1958, and was his biggest (and only) hit. Day stopped recording music as a solo artist after 1960, when he began concentrating on songwriting.

"Hey! Baby" by Bruce Channel (1961)

The DJ Ötzi remix of "Hey! Baby" is the version you've most likely heard at sporting events and such — but the original is much more relaxed, with a prominent harmonica. Sung by Bruce Channel, it topped the Billboard Hot 100 in 1962.

Channel, while touring Europe, was accompanied by a little-known band (at the time) named the Beatles. There's a popular urban legend that suggests that the harmonica part in "Love Me Do," the Beatles's first single, was inspired by Channel and this song, but Lennon had already been playing the instrument for a few years.

The song experienced a resurgence in popularity when it was used during a scene in 1987 classic film "Dirty Dancing."

"Wipe Out" by The Surfaris (1963)

You might not know the song by name, but chances are you've heard "Wipe Out" — either The Surfaris version or a cover. It's been used in over 20 movies and TV shows. In fact, it pops up at least once a decade.

The song spent four months on the Billboard charts, but never reached the top spot.
