Yeah, but he's not really a one hit wonder right?

Over there was a pretty solid hit
You're a grand old flag
Give my regards, when he played it panties probably showered the stage.

He was pretty much the Bruce Springsteen of his generation

Are they not a one hit wonder? With the exception of "Crazy" what other commercial hits were released?

Yeah the members of Gnarls Barkley are not "one hit wonders" themselves, but the vast majority of people couldn't name you another Gnarls Barkley song (maybe Gone Daddy Gone?, not even their song too lol), which to me is what would qualify as a one-hit wonder.

They only had two albums and five singles. They were more of a "project" anyway. Cee-Lo and Danger Mouse had released material as solo artists before and continued to after.

Seether have had 4 top 10 albums in the Billboard 200 and several #1 songs on the Alternative and Mainstreams lists. No one hit wonder ... plus that Amy Lee #### was the lowpoint of their career

But clearly you're a fan (I have the debut album myself). I bet you Baha Men fans can tell me more songs than the infamous one. Doesn't change the fact "Crazy" is one of their only two songs to ever chart, and the fact everyone knows the song "Crazy" but couldn't tell you what other song charted. I had to look it up, and I don't think I've ever heard "Going On". Neither have most people.
