Quiz Description

The final round of my Just Music quiz at TCONA this year was a "One Hit Wonder Showdown", where teams took turns identifying one hit wonders. It turns out I over-prepared for this round, as I had dozens of music clips left over at the end, and rather than have them languish on my hard drive, I'm making Alpaca Farm quizzes out of them!

For the purpose of these quizzes, a "one hit wonder" is defined as a band or artist who had only one single reach the Billboard Top 40 in the US. Some of these artists went on to have illustrious careers outside of the mainstream pop charts (eg. Jimi Hendrix, System of a Down, etc.)-- others, not so much...

Name the artist in each clip; the year and peak Billboard position is also given. Song titles are not required, since the titles are often mentioned within the clips themselves. Don't worry about "featured" artists.
