Here’s my big idea for the day: A music festival of one-hit wonders.

No filler. No B-sides. Just back-to-back greatness.

A full festival, massive stadium PA system, but every song is only the one song you came for.

The band gets on stage, plays their one hit, then gets off stage.

My line-up for a One Hit Wonder Festival:

  • Things of Stone and Wood – Happy Birthday Helen
  • Bachelor Girl – Buses and Trains
  • Lo-Tel – Teenager of the Year
  • Amiel – Lovesong
  • Gotye feat. Kimbra – Somebody That I Used to Know
  • Nathaniel – You
  • Orianthi – According to You
  • Josh Abrahams feat. Amiel – Addicted to Bass
  • Crazy Town – Butterfly (Epic will sub in for Shifty if needed)
  • Len – Steal My Sunshine
  • New Radicals – You Get What You Give
  • Chumbawamba – Tubthumping
  • Sir Mix-a-Lot – Baby Got Back
  • Nena – 99 Luftballons (the German version only of course)
  • Daniel Powter – Bad Day
  • Toni Basil – Mickey
  • Dexys Midnight Runners – Come On Eileen
  • A Flock of Seagulls – I Ran (So Far Away)
  • Southern Sons – Heart in Danger
  • Blind Melon – No Rain
  • Baz Luhrmann – Everybody’s Free (To Wear Sunscreen) - yes I am serious this would be amazing
  • Vanessa Carlton – A Thousand Miles
  • Right Said Fred – I’m Too Sexy
  • The Buggles – Video Killed the Radio Star
  • Rhubarb - Exerciser

🎟 One stadium. One song each. No fillers. Just pure one-hit-wonder gold from start to finish.

Make it happen, music industry.
