This one is stuck in my memory from elementary school days. It's really not very good.

Gustofer, this song always makes me remember the early Nicholas Cage movie Valley Girl.

Men At Work was not a one hit wonder with "Down Under".

They had hits in the US with "Who Can It Be Now?" and "It's A Mistake" as well.

One-Hit-Wonder
A band or singer that everyone forgets about after their hit song runs its natural course into obscurity, because they can never get back onto the charts again.
Most one-hit-wonders are that way because either they can't write their own songs, or their own songs are crap.

so it is it a "one hit wonder"

if a person only knows one song by a performer or group ?

I kinda don't think so

Yeah, they also did "Broken Wings," but few remember that. Maybe they're 1.5 hit wonders.

Do these even qualify as hits?

Here's a couple more (cannot provide ewe-tube while at work):

Thin Lizzy - Jailbreak (yes, I know they have other good one, but no hits)

Boomtown Rats - I Don't Like Mondays
