Flash In The Pan Wonders Of The 90s
People loved and still love 80′s music but what about the 90′s? The 90′s were full of forgotten treasures that set the stage for future acts. Bands such as Green Day, Radiohead and Pearl Jam made it big back then and are still huge today.
However, there were also those bands that seemed to suddenly form, write a hit of a song, become a huge success and then fade out just as quick as they had come on the scene.
These are formally known as one hit wonders and no one can ever remember the bands names only the title of the hit songs, for obvious reasons.
Breakfast At Tiffany’s, everyone loved that song and it has been played again and again ever since. It was near the top end of the charts for some time but who can remember the band that sung it?
I wouldn’t be surprised if you couldn’t, because they never neared the success of this hit anytime after. Their name was Deep Blue Something, and they are one of the quintessential 1990s one hit wonders.
Try another one, “The Way” which was a hit during the late 90′s and loved by many. This one actually still gets played even today but the band never managed to make another song as good at that one.
The Rembrandts, they are my third temporary sensation to make the list. Their hit song is played and listened to every day and many people wouldn’t even be able to put the name of the band to the hit song.
I’ll Be There For You, ring any bells? It was such a loved song in its time that it became the theme song for the TV show Friends, Oh now you remember! And as with all the rest, The Rembrandts faded away into obscurity.
But the questions is, who has helped produced the one hit sensations list for the 2000′s? That one is coming soon.

Hmm now that I think about it, yeah, more 80s song are remembered than 90s. Maybe it’s because the 80s are more memorable and maybe 20 years ago, people just aren’t ready to switch to a new genre.
i totally agree with you 90,s music is one of our forgotten treasure. my Favorite song is “the way”
