Cher Lloyd has two hits now: "Want You Back" (#12) and a feature on "Really Don't Care" (#26). Now John Newman has two hits on his hands: "Love Me Again" (#30), and a feature on "Blame", which almost out peaked it on debut (#31).

Train - "Drops of Jupiter" and "hey Soul Sister" Are you serious? They have like five hits. I'd definitely add "Calling All Angels" to that considering how overplayed it still is on AC stations. Has anyone mentioned Fine Young Cannibals yet? Both their two hits went #1.

Mary Lambert is already bound for her second hit, with "Secrets" charging up at #81 (and still rising). This was preceded by her featured in "Same Love" (#11).

Has anyone mentioned Fine Young Cannibals yet? Both their two hits went #1. I think Train had 8 top 40 hits. -Meet Virginia -Drops of Jupiter -Calling All Angels -Hey Soul Sister -If It's Love -Marry Me -Drive By -50 Ways To Leave Your Lover And FYC weren't a 2 hit wonder either. They had a #11 afterwards.

Other recent examples: -Lorde only had 2 hits so far, "Royals" and "Team." -Avicii only had "Wake Me Up" and "Hey Brother". He was uncredited on "Good Feeling."

They had a #11 afterwards. Their most recent CHR top 40 hit is "50 Ways to Say Goodbye". I think you got it confused with Paul Simon's 1976 hit. FYC technically don't count for this thread (rule: "To count both songs have to have gone top 40 on the hot 100, and their cant be a third song by the artist to go top 40.") Otherwise, I'd say yes regarding pop radio. "Don't Look Back" may have nearly gone top 10 on momentum, but who's heard it on the radio since 1989? (Contrast it to the considerable recurrent/classic hits/flashback play that their two #1's still get.)

My Way was a top ten hit and #44 on 2015 year end list. Again was also a minor hit. Imo Fetty Wap is a much better example of a one year wonder (though I wouldn't doubt that he could make a come back).
