It was the song that made Metro Station famous.
#RIXTON ME AND MY BROKEN HEART CHIPMUNKS TV#
The song was everywhere you turned - the radio, on TV - you couldn’t escape it. The track was the third single off of the band’s debut self-titled album, and launched itself into the US top ten.

After meeting Miley’s co-star, Mitchel Musso’s brother Mason, the two hit it off instantly and Metro Station was born.

The Cyrus family is full of musically talented musicians, and that also goes for Miley’s brother, Trace. Until then, he’s just somebody that we used to know. We only hope Gotye will make a big comeback soon. Most recently he’s started his own record label, Spirit Level. These days Gotye is still performing, and working on new music. “Somebody That I Used To Know” even went on to win Record of the Year at the 2013 Grammy Awards.Īfter the success of “Somebody That I Used To Know,” Gotye released a few singles including, “I Feel Better,” and “Save Me.” Neither charting nearly as high as the number one single. The song was even performed on Glee, and that’s how you know you’ve made it as an artist. The song remained on the charts for well over a year, and Gotye even had the opportunity to perform the single on huge TV shows such as American Idol, The Voice, and Saturday Night Live. The track reached number one in the United States and the UK, as well as a number of other countries. It seemed as if no matter what radio station you turned on, the song was playing - people loved it. When Gotye released “Somebody That I Used To Know” in 2011, the singer-songwriter had no idea just how well the song would do. One thing’s for sure, we’ll always know him as the “Mambo No. He continued to release music over the years, and even plays shows every now and again.

His second single, “I Got a Girl,” ended up in the top ten but every song afterward continued to fall further and further down the charts, and he was never able to gain the success he had again. It became an instant hit.Īfter the release of his monster hit, he tried to ride the wave of success, and released his debut album, that charted fairly well. Bega put his own twist on it, adding his own lyrics and sampling the song. The song was originally written and recorded by Dámaso Pérez Prado in 1949.

The catchy tune was unlike anything on the radio at the time, making it an instant hit. Growing up in the early 2000s, you couldn’t go very long without hearing Lou Bega singing about Monica, Erica, Rita, Tina, and a few other girls. These are 15 one hit wonders of our childhood, and what they're up to today. Regardless of what they’re up to nowadays, they’ve still created some of the best and some of the most memorable songs that we still listen to these days (whether we like to admit to it or not). Some have given up, fading back into regular life and stepping out of the spotlight, while others still dabble in the music world, writing and recording music for other artists. In fact, many have gone on to put out album after album and single after single - but unfortunately nothing can measure up to the success of that song that made them famous in the first place. Many people would be surprised to hear that a lot of these one hit wonders don’t actually quit making music once their 15 minutes of fame are up. A lot of songs that we’ve come to know and love over the years have been one hit wonders, which leaves us to wonder where they’ve been or what they’ve been up to these days. These one hit wonders might not have what it takes to make it to the big time, but they certainly have what it takes to make a hit song that everyone knows and loves. In a world full of one hit wonders and new musicians popping on to the scene almost every day, it’s hard to become someone as successful as say, Britney Spears, Michael Jackson, or even Justin Timberlake.
