3 One-Hit Wonders From 1991 That Deserve To Be Thoroughly Enjoyed Today
American Songwriter has highlighted three 1991 songs it considers standout one-hit wonders, worth revisiting despite their acts never repeating that level of chart success. The feature is part of an ongoing "list" series the site runs celebrating overlooked or lesser-remembered tracks from past decades, aimed at reminding readers of catchy singles that didn't lead to lasting fame for their creators.
The three songs are Londonbeat's only US No. 1, "I've Been Thinking About You", from their album In The Blood; Natural Selection's "Do Anything", which peaked at No. 2 and was the more successful of just two singles the group ever released; and Corina's "Temptation", her sole Top 10 hit and a song about infidelity that later featured on Rolling Stone's list of the 200 Greatest Dance Songs of All Time. Each entry notes the songwriters involved and some lyrics, with all three tracks originating from acts who never matched this commercial peak again.
