Okay, so I think there may have been a thread like this before. However, I couldn’t find it, so I figured I’d start a new one.
What are some artists whose biggest hits don’t sound like the rest of their music and are bad representations of their discography as a whole? Let me start with a few:
Alien Ant Farm - Smooth Criminal
Radiohead - Creep
Billie Elish - Lovely (assuming this stays her biggest hit, which isn’t a guerentee by any means)
Any other examples?

Katy Perry's Dark Horse first came to my mind...Firework and Roar are the biggest hits by her, but Dark Horse is the biggest US hit. Also, Shape of You by Ed Sheeran  |

Queen - Another One Bites The Dust Um...did you forget about Boh Rhap and We Will Rock You? Queen is a rock group. Another one bites the dust is not a rock song.Their sound changed some on The Game album. Crazy little thing called love is a rockabilly song. Another one bites the dust crossed over on other charts like the disco and soul charts. |

HUMBLE., Power Trip, SAD!
probably more rappers I'm not thinking of right now, because they often have to change their sound to go more mainstream

Imo Super Bass actually represents her sound pretty well, or at least her pop sound. |

just thought of another one - DEVASTATED by Joey Badass (didn't hit the Hot 100 but has 150 million plays on Spotify), a lot more mainstream sounding than his regular boom bap sound
