The 50 Biggest Alt-Rock One-Hit Wonders of All Time: Part 4 (20-11)

34 min22 april 2026

How does an artist become famous forever with just one song and never come close again?

We continue the countdown of the "50 Biggest Alt‑Rock One‑Hit Wonders of All Time", using five decades of radio charts, Spotify streams, YouTube views, and a specially designed one‑hit‑wonder power ranking.

In part 4, we come across...

  • A one‑hit wonder that’s also a cover of another one‑hit wonder
  • Gregorian chants that unexpectedly dominated global charts
  • A "Major Tom" sequel
  • A song built on a 1932 trumpet sample and an Atari computer
  • An anarchist collective that somehow conquered the world
