ugh, you missed our discussion last month when that awful list came out.. I've begun to despise the "one hit wonder" label for groups. Too many groups tend to get labeled "one hit wonders" when in fact they've had multiple popular songs around the same time.. I've decided that when I finally write my 80s pop trivia book, "one hit wonders" will not be a subject I tackle.. (unless I write a rant like the one above).

if you actually check the official EMF web page, you can see most of the "Schubert Dip" album placed in the various charts (mostly the AOR chart, but the stations that followed those charts were the ones I used to listen to)..

Youre absolutley right!  Vh1 messed up soo many times on that list, I dont know why I used it as a reference...

i have had a problem with every Vh1 list since 100 greatest women....they all have problems.....Albums, shocking moments, one hit wonders, and hard rock are the worst ones....and I bet theyre gunna mess up on the upcoming 100 greatest love songs also...Vh1 used to poll musicians about the order of their lists, now they make them up themselves....

the funny thing is that i just turned on vh1, and it seems tha tthey are reshowing the most useless Vh1 list ever...The 100 sexiest artists..what the hell does this have to do with music..im telling you, Vh1 is gradually turning into MTV...next theyre gunna show Celebrity death match on Vh1...oh wait, they all ready are
