Some disclaimers:
- Stacie Orrico only had two US hits but had five top 40 hits in the UK.
- Satellites by September was a hit in European countries but only hit #96 in the UK.
- Puddle Of Mudd had a third top 20 hit in the UK with Control.
- Modjo's third single What I Mean only hit #59 in the UK but was a top 20 hit Spain and Switzerland.
Kinda same with Jet and Are You Gonna Be My Girl (2003)/Look What You've Done (2004) in the U.S. while having many other hits in Europe and their native Australia.
Yeah! I don't even know the second September's song here, but Satellites is still heard here and there in my country
@@lizakolganova7608 Also "party in my head" didn't do bad on the charts
Owl City also had When Can I See You Again from Disney's _Wreck-It Ralph_ (2012)
Great list. September made awesome music. I loved her songs. Same with Velvet
Alien Ant Farm had more hits than that. Those were their most popular songs and still have been putting out quality albums
Totally agree.
The only other song anyone else remembers other than Smooth Criminal and Movies, is Wish, and we all know why.
No, they most definitely didn't...And the fact that you like them doesn't change things.
Stacie Orrico had 3 number ones in the CCM radio stations before her mainstream success: With A Little Faith, Without Love and Don't Look At Me.
I Promise, I Could Be The One and I'm Not Missing You were not big hits but they charted in some European countries.
I never knew Wheatus covered an Erasure song.
Same
I did
I did too
And to think Alien Ant Farm covered a Michael Jackson song LOL!
A Little Respect was a cover?
Puddle of mudd definitely had more than 2 hits
I agree
Yeah they forgot about Control
No, they most definitely did not...no matter how much you personally like them.
@@SandySandy-hm6nk yeah they did. Control was number 3 on the billboard rock charts which is another one of their popular songs. There was also Away from me, psycho, famous drift and die need I continue. Also Psycho and Away from me also reached number 1 on the mainstream rock charts thank you very much. You tried but you played yourself
@@SandySandy-hm6nk there was at least 5 that were played routinely on American rock radio stations
Vertical Horizon's 'Best I Ever Had' became a big hit too!
Was going to say this as well 🤣 received a crap ton of airplay in early 2001. God I miss that 2 year period between the summers of 1999-2001.
What I love about this channel is that I can get my nostalgia kick from songs I haven't heard in a really long time, hear my favorites and get introduced to music I haven't heard before that I might enjoy. Glad to add songs to my own spotify playlist thanks to your channel! (=
Me too
_TWO HITS = A DECENT CAREER_
Both Stacie Orrico & Switchfoot crossed over from the Christian Contemporary Music world. They each had hits in that world before their mainstream hits (and I think Switchfoot may have had a couple of hits back in the CCM world after their mainstream success)..
Wow! 2000 Hits Were ALL THAT!
Some Songs I Remember Some Songs I Forget
I think Wheatus and Vertical Horizon didn't get the enough credit when they came out. Their albums are quite good and i still listen to til this day. And also Modjo's Lady is the first track that i listen when i am on a Highway. 😎😎
The nostalgia is so real🤩
O-Zone was three-hit wonder. Their third hit is "De ce plăng chitarele" (2004).
Great list! I never knew about some of these other hits from these artists, but that’s really cool. Keep it up, SRG!
Story of my life - the best song for me of 2000's😍
GREAT list of songs and I always CZcams is the CLOSEST thing to an ACTUAL time machine.
Pretty sure that Puddle of Mudd had more that two hits
i forgot about SWITCHFOOT. Thanks for the info. This kind of channel really pull back many songs that i liked but i dont remember anymore.
Thanks so much for sharing. I had only heard of one song from many of these acts, and wasn't even aware of the other hit!
0:00 Yes! I love this song 😍
Didn't know she had a second hit internationally, though.
Who?
OMG, that Little Boots REMEDY song owned my entire sophmore college semester!
Quite a few gems on here I’ve never heard! Time to go down the CZcams rabbit hole again.
I can't believe how many of these songs I forgot about. I remember hearing some of these during my college/university years.
You know what, thanks for doing this. There's so many little gems that were lying just at the edge of my mind that I'd completely forgotten about.
Man the early 2000’s were trying to take music to a crappy place, but the world just said “nah. No thanks.” 🙃
As someone watching this in Canada, this is mostly "I know both of these songs" or "I know NEITHER of these songs", with a few instances of knowing only the bigger hit. Love this series though! Unfortunately, you can't really continue because it's too early to know if any 2010 artists will get a second hit yet.
(Sidenote: in Canada Finger Eleven would have had some other hits, although looking at chart history "Above" wasn't nearly as big as I remembered it being.)
This list left out my favorite Kevin Rudolph song “Welcome To The World”.
Also Puddle of Mudd’s 1st hit was Control so technically a 3-hit band.
Drift and Die was a big hit on the Rock chart and well
Vanessa Carlton no two hit wonder!
He has a few more songs! For example, the top lists featured well Counting Craws Big Yellow Taxi and a solo song back in 2008 called Hands on me
I remember a few of these. Keep up the good work. My friends laugh when I say you have lists of “Two-Hit Wonders”.
Hinder? A two-hit band? Puh-leaze. They had more than two hits, thankyouverymuch!
Name them then, if you’re one to object. Those two songs were their only top 40 hits in not only the US, but also Canada and Oceania. Either their other songs didn’t reach Top 40 or it only became popular on the alternative Billboard charts, which is not what is taken into consideration for these lists. And if you have an issue, you can always ask SRG. He makes the lists. He does the research.
Vertical Horizon had a couple more I thought? Best I Ever Had/Grey Sky Morning is one of my favorite songs in the world.
Hope you had a great Day. 💞
Love your Videos. 💕
Greetings from Germany. ❣️
❤️🧡💙💜💛💚🖤
"Psycho" and "Famous" by Puddle of Mud were also hits.
"White Houses" and "Nolita Fairytale" by Vanessa Carlton also made the top 40.
Why didn't you include Bodyrockers? They were two-hit wonders really. They had two hit singles "I Like the Way You Move" and "Round and Round" (both in 2005).
Forgot about City High What Would You Do & Caramel and Tweet Oops (Oh My) & Call Me
Thank you for this video. An interesting insight within the 2000s. Alien Ant Farm just came and disappeared. I was amazed how 'Sunny' became a Top 10 hit here in the UK as I found it a very weak cover / sample of the Boney M song. Infernal just disappeared as soon as they arrived. Iyaz...the song always sounded to me 'Chinese like a melody in my head' 😂 Kristian Leontiou should have been huge. Great album, cute guy and great songwriter. He did have some very minor success as One Eskimo in 2009 but they weren't a hit. That's talent Little Boots is active albeit not commercial. Her last album released in early 2022 is decent. Better than 90 per cent of the stuff in UK charts. Is it me or does the Owl City / Carly Rae duet scream badly sang and performed live. September did have a minor hit with Satellite'. Stacey Orrico the guy in the first video was her cousin, and in a gay film I saw (no it was a romance film, not a rude one!). Decent actor he is.
Another itneresting 2-hit wonder of that era would be the band 'A' does anyone remember them? They were pretty neat, then they seemed to have dissapeared of the earth.
So many good songs
2:13 I love that this is basically the same song. 😅
I just love that this is 22 Two hit wonders. 🤣
I wonder what happened to Stacey Orrico. She must be about 40 years old now... 🤔
Thank you! I miss September! 🖤
How about Satellites by September?
Since SRG is basing this off of the US, the UK and Germany, I can see why he placed September on here even though it’s a debatable entry. _Satellites_ was big in Sweden, and other countries like the Netherlands, Spain, and the other Nordic countries, but this song only managed to reach number 96 on the UK charts, and never even reached the USA or Germany. But yes, September has had other hits in other countries.
Puddle of Mudd had one more hit. Control which was #3 on the mainstream billboard rock charts
Girlicious
Girl like me(2004)
Rough(2005)
Hey, September had one more hit - Satellites ;)
And another one - Looking for Love
@@pradzi Dokładnie ;) A miałem dopisać...
In fact, Satellites was their biggest hit in Spain by far
I think SRG is basing this off of US, UK and German charts, since these regions tend to be big in terms of commercial music that becomes popular elsewhere. But yes, September did have their hit _Satellites,_ but it managed to only reach 96 on the UK charts and not chart in America or Germany. But, it was really popular in Continental Europe, specifically the Nordic countries, the Netherlands, and Spain.
I believe Hinder had a third hit with "Use Me" in 2008. Also, Switchfoot had "Stars" in 2005
Puddle of Mudd ❤❤
1:22 solo 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
3:01 I do not know as the 2 O-Zone songs between the difference of the 2004 songs but came back in 2003. This is why the song of "Dragostea Din Tel" album always turns into other and second O-Zone song of 20 years old in 2024.
Topissime 🌷🌷🌷😍
I had forgotten the song Point of View by Moony, so thanks for this video.
With rock musicians I don't really think the Hot 100 is the best representation of their popularity, Cause a lot of the genre's biggest hits don't even chart on it. (Think Godsmack, Slipknot, Korn, Deftones)
Puddle Of Mudd may have only had two songs in the Top 40, But their other songs Away From Me, Famous, Drift and Die, and especially Psycho and Control are still hits. Those last two especially were some of the most played rock songs of the decade.
With bands like Trapt I get it cause nobody remembers their other hits, But Puddle Of Mudd has three hits at the very least.
Just a clarification, Finger 11, Hinder, Puddle of Mudd, & Switchfoot had more than 2 songs which were Not Top 40 hits, Kevin Rudolph had a song between Let It Rock & I Made It "Welcome To The World ft. Rick Ross 2009"
Stacie Orrico also did some Christian Music & Switchfoot did as well.
God...some of these pairs sound practically identical!
You left off Jay Sean!!!
All or Nothing
Do You Remember
2009
Dream could be on this list with She Loves You Not and This Is Me both from their debut album.
Yes I had included them in the first draft of the video but removed them because I wasn't sure 'This Is Me' could be called a 'hit'.
@@somerandomguy_music It peaked at #39 on the Billboard hot 100, so it was a minor hit.
Agree
1:40 through 1:48 There's another 2004 song in this first month of 2024 turning 20 years old. I'll be turning 17 when I was younger. Story of My Life and Shining are both exactly the same of europeans in the US and UK songs in the real life.
So Good ! Algum brasileiro aqui ???
É noixx
@@ThiagoBarbosa. É kkkkkkk 😆😆😅😅🙃 !!!
3:44 I notice the Switchfoot song when in the final year in the 170 Songs That Turn into 20 Years Old in 2024 video coming out on January 2024. Man, great kind of 2004 songs, it came across the lines of european but almost 2004 yet.
Oh, god. What I meant to say is it was at 3:50. Sorry bout that.
Finger Eleven had another hit called Slow Chemical which was popular
It's not a hit, it was Kane's WWE Theme for years
The calling: Wherever you will go and Adrian. (Or maybe they are just an one hit wonder).
Although Alien Ant Farm and Puddle of Mudd hv more than two hits (AAF with Wish - those playing the Tony Hawk game; and PoM with Control - the theme song of WWE Survivor Series 2001), I hv to admit that I once again enjoy this compilation. I dare to say that some of these songs are also played on Malaysian radio stations, Replay and Good Girls Gone Bad among them.
And yeah, those following WWE during its Ruthless Aggression era will also remember Finger Eleven as the band behind Kane's entrance theme.
0:37 lol
Brittany Murphy in the wheatus video.😻
The mid - late 2000s really sucked. That's when the record execs decided that dance/techno sound HAD to be on everything especially R&B/Pop
It’s just your taste. Doesn’t mean it sucked. I like dance-related music. Maybe you don’t.
1:12 Okay, that sounds good - but the 2 versions of the 80s are unreachable.
Blurry was a Great Song
Fact: Dragostea Din Tei was covered by an Indonesian band named Barakatak under the title Buka-Bukaan (or Mai Ahi, following the Mai-ia-hi pronounciation). Surprisingly, this band also made two hit wonders, the first being Mai Ahi itself and Musiknya Asik. Go check it out.
0:24 This makes no responds of 2004. I'm secretly having myself for the Boogie Pimps song of "Sunny" turning 20 in 2024. But not eventually.
Owl City has more than 2
Switchfoot still has a career they’re not the one hit wonder they’re still playing music and selling their album
I thought owl city had more hits than that?! I really liked them lol
Iyaz has another hit with So Big and Pyramid (hitting top15 of UK charts)
While it's true O-Town only had 2 Top 40 hits, We Fit Together was lukewarmly popular.
Lol. Unintentionally killing with faint praise.
Good fella
Michelle Branch was a pretty big 2 hit wonder
1:04 I notice the third 2004 song, too. Although, there's maybe a 2024 turning years old to consider more 2004 songs. And you know what? "From Paris to Berlin" albuming in 2004 may be the worst, but so then.
Where's Amanda Perez? She had "Angel" and "Candy Kisses".
On the Serbian music scene, Montenegrin pop singer Nenad Knežević Knez sampled the September's hit "Cry for you" in his 2008 hit „God, help me" (Pomozi, Bože).
Otwon the original making the band
Wtf Vanessa Carlton had a butt load of hits! She sang with Carlos Santana. Switchfoot also had a big presence in the Christian music scene for a few decades.
What's the jingle right at the beginning? It's catchy
September - Cry for You
1:49 I remember this from somewhere. I believe it charted internationally?
Some of the artists that have featured on these 2 hit list I think would appear on a list of one album wonders if you did that by decade.
Interesting to see how many of them basically tried recreating the first hit. :o Respectively how many 2nd hits are basically the same.
Chillin(instrumental)
Dassyutu game Dero! Soundtrack
Vertical horizon not just 2 hits
4:00 Wasn't she also involved in a cover of Big yellow taxi.
Хоть кто-то вспомнил finger eleven и o-zone))
Rashni might also be a Two-Hit Wonder in the 2000's: his first hit was My Name Is Rashni (2008), his second was Baboushka.
Beverly Hills was definitely a hit
Reni
Opasno te volim(2002)
Kao ptica(2000)
2:07 😍
I thought Vanessa Carlton was going to be a big star and what happened...
2:08 Modjo? Like Daft Punk?
1:14 3rd hit Ten miles
